Ignoring any issues of "fairness" here, I'm surprised the league would entertain taking a game from a place where the fans are rabid and pay out the ass for ticket and put it in a neutral site where the ticket values will be dramatically lower.

Then it's Atlanta. See NFL, we can do it faster than you.

Atlanta makes alot of sense given the top players in the AFC

Looks like from an availability perspective Atlanta, Detroit, Indy, and LA (Sofi) all available.

Reading through that thread they aren't much different from us and now they are disliking the Bills for forfeiting the game basically. They are realizing they are about to get screwed if any of these ideas come to fruition.

UNPOSSIBEL!

I was assured that Bengals fans are kind, classy, caring and most of all compassionate.

Surely the football ramifications of such a tragedy would never be considered. Especially since it was their player that inflicted the offending blow.

This has to be a put-on. I refuse to believe it.

there has to be dissent from some owners on the options. I wonder if they've voted more than 9 times.

Yeah, that's what I'm assuming too. Might be why it's now circling back to the Bills taking the L and moving on.

You're Clark Hunt, and they are trying to sell you on the AFC Championship game being played at a neutral site, are you going to agree in that large loss of revenue because some player from a rival team had a freak injury that suspended a game?

Hell to the No.

If they do decide to choose between a bye and homefield, and the Chiefs and Buffalo win Sat, we would have a good chance of a 5th AFCCG at Arrowhead if we win our Divisional round as Cincy would likely beat the Bills in the divisional round.
