ILBillsfan Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I do not think they will play this game at all they will jsut let the Bills/Bengals have a 16 game season and use percentages for any seeding 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Process Posted January 3, 2023 Author Share Posted January 3, 2023 Just now, Success said: I'd rather get the 2 seed than have the only game a week from Sunday, giving every other playoff team a bye. Sure, we could still get a bye at that point - but we might not, and that's really a worst-case scenario in terms of rest & health. The Bills can win on the road, and who knows - maybe someone beats KC before we play them so we get the AFCCG at home. There is zero chance they dedicate an entire week to one game. This is not happening. I would say there is a 99%+ chance this game doesn't get finished. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DQW87 Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Definitely a good decision by the league. I really now don't see a scenerio where this game could be played at all with the playoffs the following week. League is going to have to come decision with Buffalo and Cincy only playing 16 games. Looks to me like that may allow KC to get the 1 seed, but who knows. Honestly don't care at this point because our team is not even thinking about football, nor should they be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How things shake out I don't know if it's possible, but I would love it if the Chargers could play the Chiefs. I know KC usually wins but the Chargers always come close to beating them. They have the QB and the offense to match KC. Should have won the game at Arrowhead at the start of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocked. This game is ending in a tie/ no-contest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are not playing this week then is no other option except to push the playoffs back a week and have the Bills vs Bengals play next weekend. They won't play in the middle of next week and then a playoff game a few days later. That wouldn't be fair. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Blitz Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 This is what I think is the best solution and obviously outcome: They pause the week. If Hamlin pulls thru in the next 24-48 hours - announce Bills-Bengals kick off Week 18 on Monday January 9 with the resumption of the game. Everyone plays this weeks schedule next weekend. Bills-Patriots and Bengals-Ravens will be played Monday January 16. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to be fair, two conversations can happen at the same time: we can show support and love for Hamlin while also discussing business. But thats just my opinion. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
