 The Cincinnati Bengals for the first time since the 1980s will be advancing to the AFC Championship to take on the Kansas City Chiefs who make their fourth straight AFC Championship appearance. The Cincinnati Bengals, more than likely a lot of people have been saying they should be here, but Joe Burr and company have been proving that they have that swagger. They run the north, but the Chiefs thrilling overtime victory against the Buffalo Bills and they are in this position. For the NFC Championship the San Francisco 49ers will face the Los Angeles Rams in this NFC West battle. 3-0 could be the record that the 49ers have against the Los Angeles Rams as Debo Samuel was motioning the sweep 2-0 this season. For the Rams they look like one of the best teams in the playoffs however the Achilles heel could be the San Francisco 49ers who have been surprisingly doing great against some high-powered offenses including the Cowboys, the Packers and the Rams in week 18. Some good games coming up this weekend, but what we want to talk about in this segment was ranking the teams, the four remaining teams, who's the worst team, who's the best team. We're gonna start from number four going down to number one. Before I say who the worst team is, the second worst team, I'm not saying that these teams are bad, all these teams are deserving of making the postseason. However, given the amount of talent that's on each team, I just want to go ahead and say which teams have the most talent and have the best shot at making the Super Bowl. Not discrediting any team at all. First to start off with the team that I would say very good team, coached really well but as far as talent goes, I got to go with the San Francisco 49ers as the fourth best remaining team and here's why. Let's look at the pros and the cons of all these teams. The pros, coaching. Oh my goodness. The coaching has been excellent and this isn't stemmed from just last week's game against Green Bay Packers, but wild card weekend against Dallas Cowboys. Week 18 against the Los Angeles Rams. They have been coached really well by Kyle Shanahan, but the person that I'm most impressed with in the coaching staff is Demico Ryan, who is not as much talked about as a head coaching candidate as other candidates out there. I know the Minnesota Vikings interviewed Ryan's for head coaching position, but Ryan should get more credit because of how great this defense has been against those high powered offices that we mentioned against the Rams, the Cowboys, the Packers. They have kept them alive in this postseason and now they are advancing to the MC Championship. So the coaching is a big pro. As well as the offensive line, it does not matter who's running back at that point. You could have Jeff Wilson, you could have Elijah Mitchell, you could have Debo Samuel and they will perform well. But speaking of Debo Samuel, that's another pro, just him himself as a player. He's one of the best offensive players in the league and I'd be surprised if he's not a candidate, at least for offensive player of the year. So those are the pros for the 49ers. Now the cons for them, they're secondary. Their secondary is going to be, well, the secondary for all four of these teams need a lot of help, but the 49ers' secondary, definitely. They need some help. We talked about Dmica Ryan's. Recently he's been doing a great job. So the secondary has been stepping up, but it's still in Achilles' heel for the 49ers. The pass game with Jimmy Garoppolo, it can't go toe to toe with all the other remaining teams, the Rams, the Chiefs, the Bengals. Those teams are known for top five, top 10 passing games. For the 49ers, they don't really operate that way, which is okay. Like Jimmy Garoppolo can do what he needs to do to win the game, but if you get behind for any sort of reason and you need to come back, yes, you proved it in a 17-point comeback against the Los Angeles Rams, but is that really feasible week in and week out? So that's the only thing that I'm really concerned about as far as passing game goes for the 49ers. But ranking the teams, I would say, out of all the remaining teams, the 49ers rank in at number four. Moving on to number three, it's another away team in the championship games. The Cincinnati Bengals, I would say, are number three, and this is kind of saying something because the Bengals are actually a really good team. For the Bengals, the pass game, the Proves. The Proves for the Bengals, the pass game, obviously. Joe Burrow, Jamar Chase, Tyler Boyd, T Higgins, their offensive general, even the run game with Joe Mixon, who's really stepped it up, and I would say has had the best season of his career thus far at 25 years old. Now, the cons of the Cincinnati Bengals, I thought we covered this already this season. I thought we fixed it up. But the offensive line, the offensive line needs some help. Actually, as a matter of fact, I'm rooting for the Bengals offensive line a lot because we actually did a documentary before he got drafted on Hakeem Adenagi. We had the opportunity to go film him, to interview him. So you could go back on the channel and watch that documentary, just type in Hakeem Adenagi, Time to Football, you'll find it. So I'm rooting for the offensive line. I'm rooting for my boy who worked his way up from a six round pick all the way to a starting offensive lineman for the Cincinnati Bengals. Last week, however, the offensive line wasn't shambles, gave up nine sacks at the Tennessee Titans, Titans defense is ferocious in the pass rush. So maybe hopefully it was just that, fingers crossed. But all season long, the Bengals offensive line has looked better and it looked like Jamar Chase was the right choice instead of people saying, oh, you should draft an offensive lineman. Now Jamar Chase ended up being a great pick. Offensive line stepped it up themselves. They didn't need that much help as it is. But from last week, the offensive line was a con. And then the secondary, I'm going to mention that again, I think the defense in general gives up a lot of yards on the ground and through the air as well. But the secondary for the Cincinnati Bengals can give up a lot of yards through the air. Moving on to number two, who is the second best team remaining in the postseason? This team could be number one, they really could. But I'm going to go ahead and place them at number two. And that is the Kansas City Chiefs. And here's why. The pros for them, the passing offense. Project Mahomes, we know how good Tyree Kale, how Travis Kelsey, like I was talking to someone yesterday about how, okay, well, you can't really play prevent defense against the Chiefs when they're coming back against the Buffalo Bills because we know that prevent defense doesn't really work in the NFL, but you can't really blitz Patrick Mahomes because he's going to either escape out of it and run with the football as he showed against the Buffalo Bills, or you're going to leave Tyree Kale who's one of the fastest receivers in the NFL one on one, or Travis Kelsey one on one, who's one of the big bodied best tight ends in the NFL. You can't do that. So it's really hard to stop this fast game and that is a huge pro for the Kansas City Chiefs. That defense is a con for the Chiefs. They won't give up a lot of points usually, but they'll give up a lot of yards through the air and especially some good teams against the Chargers all season long against the Bills last week. When the when the competition steps up, the Chiefs defense tends to struggle. So with the competition getting stiff against the Bengals against potentially the Rams or the 49ers that they face in the Super Bowl, it's going to be con for the defense of the Kansas City Chiefs. And another con is the run game. I know that the run game has been looking good with Jarrett McKinnon with Clyde Edwardsley layer back. Darrell Williams has been out with a toe injury, but this run game isn't really known to be a threat on the ground. Like it's good enough kind of like going back to the 49ers pass game like it's good enough to get the job done, but when it really matters, when you really need them the most, can they really step up? And that's the same question that I have for the Chiefs and their run game. That's why I have the run game down as a con. So they're the second best team remaining. And then the last team that is remaining the Los Angeles Rams, I personally believe that they are the best team remaining in the postseason at this point. The pros, the pass game, we know about them. The run game in general as well. That's why I say the pro is the whole offense in general. It's probably the most well-rounded offense remaining in the postseason. You have a pass game with MVP candidate Cooper Cup and Matthew Stafford. They have a connection. They can get it done. You have a run game. Hey, Daryl Henderson was looking good this season. Sony Michelle was looking good this season. And now Cam Akers, last couple of games, has been looking pretty decent. It doesn't matter who really is behind that offensive line. They can get it done in the run game. So the whole offense in general, the most well-rounded offense remaining. And that's why I have the Rams ranked in as the number one best team. That is a huge pro even though in the front four in the trenches, they might be decent in the back and the secondary. Eh, give them some big plays here and there. And now they lost Jordan Fuller. They bring in Eric Weddle. It still isn't enough. They've been giving them some big plays all season long in the secondary and that could hurt them against some teams with high-powered offenses. We talked about the Chiefs to get facing the Super Bowl, the Bengals to get facing the Super Bowl. Maybe this week against Jimmy Garoppolo. Jimmy G has been known to throw for 300 yards against the LA Rams. So there's no guarantee to stop them. So that's a con that I would say. But I mean, honestly, that's probably the only con for the Los Angeles Rams. I don't know that. I mean, I think they're, I, I hate to keep saying this, the most well-rounded team in the playoffs remaining. So to recap, the best teams remaining in the postseason, number one, LA Rams, two Kansas City Chiefs, three Cincinnati Bengals, and four San Francisco 49ers.
