Cannot be in Buffalo.  Teams would scream about Buffalo having advantage of 9 home games.

 

Frankly medically it makes most sense - one team is travelling - and that is reason why they claimed for day moves but NFL is never consistent. 

This comment is 100% correct.

I agree that they probably won't move it to Buffalo...but there is a precedent for having an extra home game.   Post-Katrina the Saints played a 
"home" game against the Giants at Giants Stadium...and the Giants ended up playing an extra game at home.

The Giants got an extra home game when they played the Saints post Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Tagliabue’s reasoning for this was “9/11”.  Yeah he may actually have been a worse commissioner than Goodell if that is possible.

While I agree with you that it won't happen, it wouldn't be unprecedented. A MNF game between the Giants and Saints was moved from New Orleans to the Meadowlands in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. So the Giants got 9 home games that season.

While I get it, because we wouldn’t have to travel, we don’t complain when other teams have fans and we can’t.
