Kiva Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 We have to get away from the “woe is me”mentality. Bills deserve first round bye and home field. The league needs to make that happen. Go back to the old playoffs layout, whatever. We will not accept anything less than one seed, we’ve earned it and deserve it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not asking for any special favors, and I don't want any. But the Bills lost out on a home game because of a massive snow storm, had another game severely disrupted by another storm, and very nearly had a player die on the field in another game. Nobody is going to attach any asterisks to a hypothetical championship. This team will have overcome plenty if they reach that goal.

And if the Bills and Chiefs play it should be on a neutral field in the AFCCG. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsSbSoon Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Normally I’d say bye without thinking twice about it and I’d prolly still take the bye if I had to make the choice, but on the other hand after these past few days If there was ever a time to have home field advantage it’s right now, so idk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To have 2 bye - you actually have to eliminate a team and go back to 6 teams in the playoffs and now you have really potentially screwed the Bengals.

No one gives the '82 champ an asterisk because there was a strike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
