Will be interesting to watch, hopefully it's not necessary. I actually think it’ll probably be Indianapolis/Detroit no matter who plays. I think the NFL will want any chance of weather related issues eliminated. So they would choose a dome no matter which team result we end up with.

Also, I’m in favor of the 3 seed….kinda. If we’re gonna ride with Damar, let’s ride with Damar! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Now that Damar is improving, the kid gloves are coming off. Bengals fans on their message board and social media are fairly pissed off. Claiming the Bills are using sympathy to drive themselves into the best seed position. Their feeling is Cinci would’ve beaten Buffalo and get the 2 seed maybe the 1.

BillsFooteball Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Hamlins health is #1. There wasn’t going to be a perfect solution scenario so I’m not sure what I was hoping for that would be fair but man I’m bummed out. Really wanted the 1 seed. The bye, the easier path to SB, and hosting AFC championship. Die hard raider fan Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think sadly now we will see a lot more negativity coming out of Cinci and KC once the league rolls out their decisions on seeding and other matters.

I think. Oh okay. Yeah the more I think about it, if KC loses this week and we win, the result in Cincy wouldn't have changed anything. So this week, win and if we end up playing Cincy and/or KC they will be neutral if they both also win. I think this solution does really make the most sense. The coin flip for ravens/Cincy seems odd though. Why not keep this as a neutral as well if needed vs coin flip? What's different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheektowaga Chad Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Maybe I'm too much of a conspiracy theorist but moving the conference championship game to a neutral site opens up the league to always have it at a neutral site Imagine having a final four type situation for the NFL, both conference championship games in the same location and then the super bowl the following weekend That is straight money for the league 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Bills Cinci are 2 3, it's impossible for them to meet in the AFCCG. If bills get the 1 seed and it's bills Cinci in the AFCCG, game is in Buffalo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're being a bit short sighted then, at this point neither team could really play this game without taking on a major disadvantage going into the playoffs, what with there not really being enough time to fit it in.

The Red King Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 3 hours ago, Aussie Joe said: But if KC wins you will be ok with it? If BUF wins and KC loses, BUF will be a full game ahead with the tiebreaker. That would get them top seed regardless of how the Bengals game would have turned out. 100% lock. If BUF and KC win, KC would be a game ahead while BUF would have played one game less. There is no guarantee that KC would have won it. In other words, if both win, the BUF/CIN would certainly have mattered. If KC loses and BUF wins, the BUF/CIN game would have been meaningless. So in the case of a KC and BUF win, I would be okay with splitting the perks. If KC loses and BUF wins, I am not, because BUF will have outright won it. The former, the results of the BUF/CIN game would have mattered. With the latter it would not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
