Clarification.. the Bills? Or the league cancel the year? I have heard people saying Bills forfeiting Sunday and just give themselves 2 weeks to hear news and get ready for the playoffs both mentally and physically.

Umm the only INT of note was M Jones at the Pats 42 returned for a TD. McCourty almost picked a deep ball in the third but dropped it. The other turnover was on Cincy 44 and was a fumble. No one was talking about the 1st half where Cincy walked over them to a 22-0 lead. I stand corrected on the FG but even that, if the Pats don’t fumble or miss the extra point they had a chance to win. as for the Washington play.. the ball is in his hands he should catch it. (In real time it looked like it was in his chest lol) Sorry the second half the Bengals were obviously looking ahead to the Bills game.. they were on the most part flat.

The interception was a long long pass and they were not in the red zone at the time of the pick. TD Called back because the only reason Burrows was able to get rid of the ball was the huge hold on Judon.. also was a long pass as well. The FG was a 55 yarder hardly a chip shot. So unlike the first half they didn’t move the ball with lightning efficiency. lol watch the play again the ball was right in Washington chest he should have caught it, they were lucky he tipped it to Meyers but it wasn’t a Hail Mary pass like you said.

Not to the NFL. It’s all about the money! And it matters to all those teams as well..

The Pats game means a lot for the final playoff spot. Pats win they are in. (Lol as unlikely as that is) Pats lose and Miami wins they are in, both lose and Pitt wins they are in.. so yes the outcome does matter for a team to make the playoffs.. FYI I DONT want my Pats in I want them out of the playoffs they are not good enough.

I’ve said repeatedly they should schedule for after the Pats game. I gave the other scenario as an option, never said it was likely or right.. just an option. The one for it happening after thePats game seems the most logical, move everything back a week for playoffs and the winner be the #1 seed if everyone wins this weekend.

I disagree with the disrespect. I believe if Hamlin was fine and it happened to another player he, like his teammates, would have a hard time playing on without knowing the players status one way or the other. So if the options were (and they are not) play Wednesday or forfeit m, you take the L. Because caring about your brother is a hell of a lot more important than playoff seeding.

Forfeiting the Pats game would have Miami and Pitt up in arms as it eliminates them from the playoffs. The truth is there is NO good solution for this unprecedented situation. (For lack of a better word)

Ahh thank you! I was wrong in my assumption you were meaning McCourty. (I am glad I asked)

Lmao I actually said just now playing it after the Pats game and if by some miracle the Pats won they would Cancel it since it didn’t mean much to the Bills. Also who is McCorkle?

I said that was more LIKELY than them not playing the game. What is amazing is everyone forgets, whoever would have won last night had home field advantage going into week 18. What every Bills fan in here is saying that the Bengals should be the team most impacted by this and that’s “fair”. I could see it be in g scheduled after the Pats/Bills game on Sunday, and if by some weird twist of fate Buffalo loses and Cincy wins and nothing matters for their game then it being cancelled. The sad fact is while Bengals players and coaches may not care that much the owner does. That’s 1 potential extra home game and a lot of money.

I said that was more likely than them skipping the game. Also I am not talking about the players but rather the owners, they BOTH want that potential for the extra home game to make more money. Heck I don’t know if the Bills will be mentally ready go on Sunday depending on the news coming out of the hospital.

Bills will either have to play the Bengals game or take it as an L. There is no way the Bengals are losing their chance at the #1 seed overall. I doubt the league will just move on as well to tie breaker scenarios.

That’s very true. That could change against top tier QBs like Burrows and Mahomes now that you’re on your third string Safety and supposedly Tre White is still not up to his normal great level of play. Also there is a big difference between facing the Bears, Lions, Pats and then facing the defending AFC haps Bengals or even Chiefs. (Although the Chiefs look rather beatable this year)

Never going to happen! They IMO will either reschedule it for this week or give the win to Cincy since they had the lead when the game was called. I am betting the reschedule it for Wednesday and perhaps move NE/Buffalo to Tuesday next week.

Option D They make 7-3 the final score, and give Buffalo the L. Making week 18 a little less meaningful for the Bills and them resting starters if Chiefs win Saturday. (Not saying this is right or what’s going to happen just that it’s an option.)

How we hope we raise our kids to be like. That’s a good role model for them all.

I hope people are telling him it’s not his fault. I can imagine the guilt he is feeling from this. Higgins you did nothing wrong it was a freak accident.

Even if they were not playing till after Sundays game, I wouldn’t expect anyone one on the Bills would want to leave right away. They ALL would want to be there for their brother and his family.

I know our teams are rivals just wanted come here and say I hope he ends up making a full recovery. I am also glad to see the Bengals and Bills both agreed to postpone the rest of the game. IMO someone else could have gotten hurt on either side because they were no longer focused on the game, and rightfully so! Again I pray for a quick and full recovery…

I don’t care how good your scheme is,if you have your Nickel corner as your #1 corner and Practice squad or a safety as your 2nd and nickel corner.. your 2 superstar WR should be open! My Pats should have secured a playoff spot if they hadn’t choked roughly 1/4 of this years games away. (4 games).

You get the ball into your playmakers hands! They did nothing all game to get Waddle or Hill involved. It felt like they had Patricia calling their O too. Lol

I disagree about Bridgewater. The Pats had practice squad players in the secondary and they failed to really move the ball and well the Pats got that late drive that would have sealed it either way. Now if Tua plays they probably scorch that crappy secondary.

I don’t think that’s possible with KC winning today. Now if you lose, then it makes it almost impossible for the 1 seed and you may rest players for the next week game.. lol Pats probably still lose lol

Crush? Most of us fans don’t expect a win in Buffalo. The O line sucks so bad Jones should make them pay for any CMas gifts he bought them. Lol That said how did Miami’s not just throw it up all day to Waddle and Hill? The Pats have practice squad guys starting at Corners. Weirdest game plan ever!
