No one is going to look back and give a damn about where the divisional round game was played. They absolutely will if the Bills beat the Bengals in Buffalo in the divisional round. Everyone will remember that they were beating us before we made the decision to not continue playing. Everyone will rightfully think it was unfair that they were never given a chance to jump us in the standings. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills left town immediately, ensuring there could be no make-up the following night. Why should anyone else be more negatively affected by our decision than us? It was the right choice, but it is one that comes with a certain unfortunate consequence too. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listened to the presser with The Bengals coach and it was joint and mutual decision to not continue the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, the NFL were the ones who officially postponed the game, not sure if you read any of their press releases. Don't think McDermott has the power to postpone or cancel a game. He's a coach, not a league official. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 So the options for tomorrow are: 1. Neutral site AFCC 2. #1 seed picks bye or home field 3. Add 8th playoff team and no byes 4. Do nothing and it is what it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerovoltz Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Some points: 1. Someone here pointed out there are rules in place for this and those simply point to no contest and let the chips fall. That is the easiest. 2. Several point out KC lost to Cincy and Buffalo. That is true no matter what. And if KC finished the season still with a better record/win pct then it still wouldn’t matter. If KC would have finished with the better records it doesn’t matter. Unfortunately the inherent nature of a no contest means Buffalo now has no chance to earn the better record. You don’t get points for this. KC has had seasons where they beat both super bowl participants in the regular season. It doesn’t matter. 3. If they do the plan where KC would choose bye Or homefield, that 10000% ought to be “bye” because math. But……if you tell me I’m forced into that choice AND I know my opponent is NE. I’d at least consider playing the game and taking homefield. I’d also consider it for a Miami team if I knows no Tua or Bridgewater. 4. KC still has to win this week or a lot of this won’t matter. 5. The 8th playoff team is pure crap! The Jets Titans and Ravens Raiders may have opted to play differently, start or sit injured players differently last week IF they knew they were still in it. Screwing more and more teams trying to balance out the unfairness by sharing it with even more teams isn’t the way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the right choice, but it is one that comes with a certain unfortunate consequence too. It was a decision by both teams to stop playing. Bengals players were also affected. That said, I agree, I don't want any special consideration, I just want the game to be played. It is silly to me that we may change all the rules and split advantages for being the 1st seed solely because we can't just make up this game. I do think if we did win it all with help from a split advantage like home field advantage then there will be quite a bit of trolling about the Bills having to have that advantage to beat the Chiefs. Its not a huge deal but it will be annoying. 3 hours ago, Punch said: The NFL proposal is that the 1 seed would choose between homefield or a 1st round bye. 2 hours ago, Captain Caveman said: The idea is splitting the benefits of the 1 seed between the top two teams since the Chiefs likely would not have won the 1 seed had the Bills / Bengals game been played (and assuming Bills / Bengals win this week) Really dislike this idea per the above. I will surely be pissed if we get knocked out in wildcard when we surely could have claimed the #1 seed legitimately. 1 hour ago, bills6969 said: Bills v Chiefs at Ford field Its just silly. This is an advantage rightly earned by one team or the other. Just replay the damn bengals bills game. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If BUF wins, any game against CIN is here. If CIN wins and we lose, we’d have to go there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
