I've seen the Ravens slow down elite offenses in the playoffs. When the Bills do it, I think they'll start getting the same credit by many here... they will by me, at least. If they step up against Cincy, I'll be the first to give them credit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s go over who got what benefits (as it relates to the Bills-Bengals and ignore the Ravens coin flip stuff because it isn’t relevant here). Bills hurt by: - Lost the ability to get the #1 seed Cincy hurt by: - Lost the ability to get the #1 seed or #2 seed Concessions made to the Bills: - Neutral site AFCCG if same losses as Chiefs at the end of the year Concessions made to the Bengals: - Neutral site AFCCG if same losses as Chiefs at the end of the year It doesn’t seem hugely unfair if you assume the Bills-Bengals game never happened. They were both given the same concessions, the Bills just went into that game with a better record so it feels like they got “more” to sour grapes Bengals fans. The team plays with a giant chip on their shoulder and the attitude has rubbed off on the whole city and most of SW Ohio and NKY. They feel constantly wronged by the league, other teams and the media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said, I’m glad we get to host 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bengals are going to come out very very fired up again. I think this is something to take advantage of. The crowd was electric in that game. It was the first Monday Night game in Cincinnati since December 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) I know it's a big "if" but if the jags pull off (another) the upset do they come to orchard park? I felt the neutral site would only apply to the bengals and don't understand why the neutral site would apply to kc? I would rather see the bills go in to arrowhead if kc wins. I mean, it's not like the bills can't win there? Edited January 17, 2023 by DaBillsFanSince1973 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you rather play KC at Arrowhead than Atlanta? Lots of Buffalo transplants in Atlanta. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Now is the time for the Allen designed runs. Would not mind seeing 5-7 of them, and also, hopefully Josh can find a way to pick up yards running on a scramble. The Dolphins did a good job of shutting him down in this regard. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The logic that the Bills v Chiefs game is at a neutral site is because they played a different amount of games and have the same number of loses. The Bills and Bengals played the same # of games and the Bengals have more loses. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ball got there at the same time as the DB’s hand. It was a forced throw to a guy who was covered. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I think the post right above yours is pretty clear. And as for KC, some equitable adjustment is valid. I don't think the Chiefs were slighted. If anything, they were pretty much gifted a first round bye. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
