Hey Bills fan - I spent all night with various size cylinders getting myself ready for your arrival. What the **** kind of bullshit bluster and sabre rattling do you pussies condone over there?

I WAS PROMISED RECTAL TEARING!

shut up i'm trying to lol over here

I actually think these decisions were made remarkably quickly. They were merely waiting on details of whether the blizzard would be bad enough/the field had been torn up enough (thanks, Shakira) that they'd need to relocate. Similar situation with our game against the Bucs earlier in the season around the hurricane. They had a contingency plan and were waiting as long as possible to gauge the path of the storm to make the decision. I think that's kinda the logical thing to do seeing as how they obviously don't want to have to re-locate these contests.

I’m glad they lost 4 straight SBs.

I'd much prefer we all just knew what the schedule was. For the vast majority of my life the NFL schedule was not in some state of jeopardy every damn year. It pretty much ran like clockwork, and everybody focused on the games and the outcomes rather than bizarre shit like should they/will they play, and if so - when? It's just exhausting.

My sentiments exactly!

But we've been in this state of limbo for 2.5 days? It's not like this has been hanging over the season for a sustained period of time. If they announce a plan, say, tomorrow, will anyone have really been any worse for it or disadvantaged by it?

For all we know, the teams already know the plan. I get that the plan may impact travel plans and such for fans, but the teams knowing is more important.

Not like they are in football, we love the game but don't be obtuse concerning the risks.

It's going to mean different things to different people for sure, but I know I would just want to go back out there and play for Damar. The NFL will have moments of silence around the league this next weekend, we'll all hope he pulls through and is able to live a normal life if medically possible, but eventually there's nothing you can do for him and shutting down your own life in the meantime doesn't help you get over his condition and it doesn't honor the sacrifice he was willing to make. If Stefon Diggs and others need more time, then they can take it, but it doesn't stop the playoffs from getting here, and if Damar was conscious and able to breath on his own, I would have to imagine that he wouldn't want his brothers on the team to stop playing on account of him. I don't know him obviously, I'm not on the team but I doubt anyone in Damar's condition would want someone to stop living their life in their absence, that's a pretty safe bet.

Put me in the "If you want to be the best you have to beat the best" camp. I'm fine with either option the NFL chooses; play the game by itself in week 19 or just cancel the game. What I'm not fine with is the NFL dragging its feet on making the decision. We should know by now what they have planned. (For the record I believe they already know what they're going to do; they're just afraid of the backlash that will come with either option they choose).

you're not a shit person

there are thousands of people in the hospital in cincy but we're supposed to put our lives on hold for this specific one?

OK LMAO

Exactly, the pearl clutching over this has been massively overblown and its just feeding on itself.

I bet there are many players who wouldn't say it publicly that are already tired of it all as well and just want to play football. This is a very important time of the season and it seems like all momentum has just slammed to a halt.

Well it seems to be at least trending towards sanity at this point. However 2nd best thing they could have done was called the game Bengals dub at 7-3. Because the Bengals are getting absolutely ****ed in this. They win, and they would have been 2 seed. Instead, Bills get to remain 2 seed.

1st best option play game a few days later.


3rd best thing is no contest because bengals lose out on the 2 seed but they get handed their division essentialy. However, Ravens get fkd but in the current reality they weren't gonna win that division anyway without their starting qb, so 3rd best option.

Play the game after this weekend? Ok- If Chiefs win Bengals have no Bye to play for and would get no bye week. They would be the only team in AFC to not get a bye.

Everything else was just a non starter.
