  1. There is no scenario where the Bills and Bengals can meet in the AFCCG, they can only meet in the Divisional Round.
  2. The Bills would unfairly benefit if they host Cincy in the Divisional Round (assuming they both win Week 18). There are several inequitable scenarios that need to be factored into this proposal.
  3. Yeah that’s right, I had to play out the scenarios on paper.
  4. I think we can only play Cincy in the Divisional Round.
  5. You’re correct, I misread Scenario 3. Apparently Buffalo and Cincinnati cannot meet in the AFCCG?
  6. If the Bills beat the Bengals in Week 17 and the Ravens likewise beat Cincy in Week 18, both the Bengals and Ravens would finish 11-6 but Baltimore would be 2-0 head to head. Strange that isn’t taken into consideration or did I get something wrong?
  7. If Cincinnati and Buffalo both win in Week 18, a theoretical AFCCG between them would be at a neutral site, per the proposal. Cincy lost the opportunity to beat Buffalo in Week 17 with the cancelled game.
  8. The Raiders have often played the Chiefs tough in recent years—- remember their matchup earlier this season on MNF?
  9. The proposal will likely pass but it isn’t “official” yet until the owners meet tomorrow.
  10. The NFL proposal is that the 1 seed would choose between homefield or a 1st round bye.
  11. Yes, that’s why the Chiefs would get to choose (assuming both Kansas City and Buffalo win this week).
  12. The decision is definitely up to us: fans posting on a message board.
  13. If this is the NFL’s solution then I’d love it if the Chiefs willingly gave the Bills homefield. It feels like an impossible choice but the Bills have already been run through the gauntlet. It feels right in a perverse way.
  14. Ultimately I do agree, I don't like the proposal. They're still only playing 17 games with automatic advancement on the line but I understand what you're saying.
  15. The playoff bye isn't about rest (although it's a nice bonus). It's about an automatic advancement to the next week. Playing out the Bills-Bengals game to assure that bye plus homefield advantage is worth it.
  16. I haven’t seen this discussed beyond this tweet—- I’m interpreting this as a realistic possibility, am I wrong?
  17. I'm also confused why this keeps getting brought up, winning percentage is paramount to NFL tiebreaking procedure: https://www.nfl.com/standings/tie-breaking-procedures
  18. I see, I don't think that would be the reason if they don't play but I missed those suggestions being made.
  19. You don't understand why the Bills players might not want to play the game while they don't know Damar's status?
  20. It’s still active, GoFundMe’s official Twitter account tweeted it out.
  21. The Buffalo Bills are indisputably the greatest professional sports franchise in the history of this or any other Galaxy. I will not stand for this insolence on a Buffalo Bills message board, how dare you.
