Matt_In_NH Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Now that all the other games have been played and the NFL has done what it has done the seeds are 1. Chiefs, 2. Bills and 3. Cinci. If they played the game the the Bills won, it would be 1. Bills, 2. Chiefs and 3. Cinci. If they played the game the the Bills lost, it would be 1. Chiefs, 2. Cinci and 3. Bills. I understand why people are questioning things, But the Bills would have been 1 or 3 based on the outcome of that game, the way the NFL handled it they get the 2 which would not be an option at all if the game was played. Did the Chiefs benefit, yes they did...the bye week is something that can only go to one team, something had to happen. I think there would be a lot more questing if they gave that to the Bills and even though it would benefit my team, I am ok with what they did do.

dma0034 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 If the favorites win it's not like the Chiefs have an easier opponent in the Chargers, despite their coach being terrible. The best 4 QBs in the NFL will be playing against each other next week imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 This is sour grapes. If the Bills were in the same position that the Chiefs are in, everyone here would be defending it. If people want to be pissed off, be pissed off about the loss to the Jets. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Hooks Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) I think it’s fair. KC did what they needed to do. It’s not their fault we didn’t finish our game. With that said, we did kinda get a bye week Bengals week(offense played one drive, defense played a drive and a half), and now it’s guaranteed we don’t have to go to arrowhead. It’s not perfect, but there’s no guarantee we won that game against Cinci. They were playing hot, and they got the short end of the deal as well. Is what it is.

LABILLBACKER Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I absolutely hate the 7 team format. It should be 6 with 2 byes rewarded as it always was. Maybe the Chiefs will come out flat and rusty like the Titans last season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I’m on to a who cares? The situation was and remains uncontrollable by the Bills. In my worthless opinion Cinci is the team that might have come out worse in this situation as they had a legitimate shot at the #2 seed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 4 hours ago, Charles Romes said: If the chiefs manage to win it all there will be a major ✳️ No there won't. The Chiefs are considered a power house team because of Mahomes in just about every NFL city. They are top 3 in just about every single power ranking. They are as deserving of winning the SB as Buffalo, Cincinnati, or Philly. If the Bills aren't good enough to beat the Chiefs at a neutral field, or Miami/Cincinnati at home, then they aren't good enough to win the whole thing. It is that simple for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nephilim17 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) Buffalo essentially had a bye week by not playing over 3 and a half quarters of football. Yes, we had a devastating injury but you're kidding yourself if you think other serious injuries couldn't have occurred with the time remaining. How would you feel if in the third quarter of that game Morse gets concussed again? Or Diggs gets a high ankle sprain? Or Milano gets hurt? It could have happened. Accept it and be glad we don't go to Arrowhead this post season. Life isn't fair. Move on. Edited January 9, 2023 by Nephilim17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 4 hours ago, sunshynman said: There was likely a 50/50 chance of them getting it with Buffalo losing to the Bengals. But it sucks something awful that they the Bills and Bengals were not given the chance to finish the game. That was the only true fair solution. But it would have cost the NFL too much to push the games around. It is sad! And F no they don't deserve it. Although they did their part by winning their last 2 games. But to get it basically by default sucks balls. They lost to both teams already this year. They will lose to either one again if they face them. Esepcially with Bills at a neutral site. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 5 hours ago, HOUSE said: I will take it to my grave, the Chiefs should be playing this weekend same as the Bills. The Chiefs won the #1 seed while Buffalo had no chance Free bye week on a technicality A situation like this was ALWAYS going to have positive and negative consequences, depending on who you are and what your perspective is. No way around that. There was no "perfect" resolution to this incident. Move forward! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chongli Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Sure, KC deserves a bye. We got our bye, along with Cincy, in Week 17. Good enough for me. Let's keep our rhythm and win streak going (now at 7). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
