Have to give the chiefs credit.  They almost get beat by a weaker team seemingly every other week but they almost always prevail with clutch play right at the end.  

Barf. Clutch play by the zebras

But they didn't? That game is going to be a no contest.


Right, so for the sake of competitive integrity, the only way the Bills should be awarded a pure #1 seed is if they beat the Pats and both the Chiefs and Bengals lose.

 

The Bengals should not be penalized the opportunity to overtake the Bills. And the Bills should not be saved from the risk of another loss in what was arguably the toughest game on their schedule.

If the Chiefs lose by 3....destiny.

The Bills shouldn't be penalized either.

True. But we're looking at it from the hypothetical vantage point of the Bills being awarded a pure #1 seed without having to play the Bengals. If a pure #1 seed is awarded, it has to line up from all competitive angles.

Crazy how one play can completely change a season, huh?

 

Last year, the QB sneak against Tennessee cost the Bills the #1 seed and now this one play could end up doing the same.

Sure, if you just look at it that way. You’d have to consider every play that we either made or didn’t make as well then. 
 

Outside of the blowout games, every team that lost to us by one score can say the same thing. “One play.” That’s the game and why winning is hard.

I have a dream for the snarky Chief board-At 3:33 of the 3rd quarter, an errant shotgun snap creates a mad scramble where Mahomes/Kelce/Humphrey all dive at the ball all hitting heads. All 3 require concussion protocol although they are fine for the next week. The Raiders 3rd string QB throws 3 TDs and 333 yards. The Chiefs proceed to lose the game 33-30. 
One can dream.

It’s funny that for competitive integrity, it’s better the Bills take an L than a no contest. It’d keep hope alive for a pure #1 seed.

 

There are only two kinds of #1 seeds:  #1 seeds and not #1 seeds.

 

I couldn't care less about a "pure" #1 seed, whatever the ***** that is.

There are now various kinds of #1 seeds in play. One scenario floated was the AFC adding an additional playoff team so that the #1 seed plays the #8 seed and doesn’t get a bye. 

 

“Pure” was intended to mean a #1 seed with home field advantage throughout the playoffs and an opening round bye.

This is great but the flaw in your "logic" is that Mahomes will never go into concussion protocol.  It'll be another "back injury" or maybe "turf toe" or whatever it was the Chiefs claimed caused his instability a couple of years ago.

Yeah, I figured that out.  Sorry, a little slow today.  I just think tinkering with people's understanding of how seeds work is a recipe for confusion and mistrust.  It's Solomonic.  I don't think the #1 should get anything different -- just HFA and a bye like always.  I'm not a fan of the neutral field idea either.  Play the playoffs like always.  HOW YOU FIGURE OUT WHO GETS THE #1 -- that's the only issue that should be in play and the league should have the stones to do that right, without all this other window dressing.

So here is how the weekend is going to go.

 

The Raiders are going to do the Bills a solid and beat the Chiefs by "Damar points"

 

The Bills are going to beat the Patriots

 

So it be written, so it shall be done.


 

I can’t argue with that.

See, absolute failure on my part.

 

Go Bills!

Or the throw that Josh short-armed to Isaiah in the end zone in Miami

 

Or the pick-6 that Milano dropped in Miami
