I wonder if they worked out that the two teams winning Monday will play on Sunday next week instead of Saturday…still less rest than the opponent though but it could be worse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I'm so glad I didn't try to drive up for this game. Imagine the hotel insanity. I just really hope they don't schedule the winner to play next Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefan66 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Happy with the move for safety reasons. Was NOT looking forward to driving. Wish it was at 1:00, gotta work the next day. Good news for our offense though to have the ability to play our type of game and not a grind it out, anything can happen game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is going to be a huge competitive disadvantage for the winner. The team that the Bills (or Steelers) will play next week will have 1.5-2 days more to prepare, to rest..etc. It’s a normal NFL week. It’s not a big deal. Get off the constant worrying people.

ShakAttack Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Wild card weekend is the only playoff round with Monday games, correct? I.e. no chance that divisional round between winner of Chiefs-dolphins and Bills-steelers would be played on Monday? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 9 minutes ago, phypon said: I agree. Also, an extra day of much needed rest. Yes, until next week when whoever we play (if we win) gets 2 extra days of rest heading into the game. From a competition standpoint we're getting the short end of the stick should we beat Pittsburgh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still have to wait to see who wins and figure out who they have to prepare for. It kind of works both ways in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Also means we are definitely playing next Sunday (hopefully) which is better than Saturday. Right now bad weather and cold is supposed to linger through next week so the later in the week the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kind of works both ways in my opinion. Not really. They can start prepping a basic gameplan. Tip it more to the home favorite and adjust if needed. Gives them a chance to self scout as well a bit. They also get the extra time to rehab players. An extra session or 2 is a difference. By the same token, anyone from the Bills dinged up gets less time to rehab. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the FIRST thing I said on this forum all week about any problems they may face, anything negative chances they have at all in the playoffs, so look at who you are replying to before you make a comment like that and tell me to 'get off' something. Second, it is a concern. its a regular NFL week? Well we have all seen stats that teams that are on a shorter week by 2 days or more vs teams that are not fair WORSE in the following game.
