“The AFC Championship Game will be played at a neutral site if the participating teams played an unequal number of games and both could have been the number one seed and hosted the game had all AFC clubs played a full 17-game regular season”

 

The unequal number of games part contradicts the full 17-game regular season part. Id say the former takes precedence but the NFL is fudging this up royally.

Yes BUF & CIN will have an equal number of games. But if you read the full release, I don’t think they will give home field to 1 team or the other if seeding could’ve changed based on Bills v Bengals outcome. 

 

Sounds like there will be an official decision tomorrow

Read the bolded.

 

The Bills and Bengals will have each played 16 games.  Thus, the participating teams will have played an equal number of games.
