Just Jack Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 9 minutes ago, What a Tuel said: My brother is in a championship game right now in this scenario! He has Allen and Bass and he is playing against Burrow and is losing 97 to 90.7 when play stopped. That said I don't think the NFL cares about Fantasy that much. I'm in the Championship game in my league also. I've got Higgins and Knox, my opponent has Burrows. He's leading right now, by less than 10 points.

Buffalo Ballin Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Just now, NUT said: If the Bills players and coaches are the ones who decide they are not playing, they have to be the ones taking the L. We already took tons of losses. There has to be a way to get a winner from this game. I'm sure our Coaches will be talking about this when the time is right.

Lionel Hutz Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 You would think the NFL has some rule for a scenario where it’s logistically impossible to finish a game. Don’t think there’s any chance this game is ever resumed. The fairest way to settle it has to be a coin flip. Declaring it a tie or just canceling it only benefits the Chiefs. The other thing to consider is whether the Bills players will even be able to play on Sunday against NE. If the Bills forfeit that game it wouldn’t be fair to Miami or Pittsburgh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I think every single game is getting postponed this week. The fact that they will be waiting for more clarity on Hamlin’s health - which we know nothing and it could be days - how are the Bills supposed to prepare for NE this week? This is unprecedented. We’re going to see unprecedented schedule changes. Please God, look over him and the doctors caring for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at the table Karlos Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 7 minutes ago, Aussie Joe said: What had this got to do with KC ? If they go to win percentage and KC wins next week they'll have the better percentage and will be the one seed. Gifting them that spot. I'm not a fan of it but the coin flip idea decides the game(possibly gifting the chefs 1 seed as well) and normal playoff rules apply.

transplantbillsfan Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 27 minutes ago, HappyDays said: I can't begin to care about this even a little bit. If Hamlin comes out of this with his health and we're playing on wildcard weekend I'm as happy as can be. I get it. I don't disagree. Hamlin first. But I don't think that's how the NFL operates. They're not going to penalize both the Bills and Bengals because of the tragedy tonight. The season will continue. The NFL is almost certainly currently meeting trying to figure out how to do it with both respect for the gravity of the situation and fairness for the teams involved.

Just Jack Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Well, seeing as how the Bills beat everyone else in that division (Steelers, Ravens, Browns), they should just award the Bills the win also, making it a clean sweep of the North. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills didn't forfeit, and the game was postponed, and there doesn't appear to be precedent or a rule for this. The NFL will be making up its own ruling for what happens next and for that we will speculate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick_Cheney Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Doesn’t this have major implications on who wins the AFC North, which in turns has major implications on everything else? I really don’t see how they don’t play this somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not going to hear a word from the NFL until Hamllin's status is known. As it should be. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
