This is going to happen anyways. That's why backdooring our way into the 1 seed may not even matter. Even if we get the 1 seed because this game is cancelled, if Buffalo or Cincy come to town literally the entire world is going be against the Chiefs. Fans, the league, the refs, they won't say it but the unconscious bias everyone's going to have will be tough.

That’s what I think.

They’re going to see if KC loses (doubtful). If so, they make the game a tie.

A quote comes to mind;

We’d be made out as villains even though it’s not our fault at all

Kinda seems like a pretty minor thing from the Chiefs perspective, no?

I think this makes sense from the NFL's perspective. They're not quite sure what to do right now and they hope the play this weekend answers some questions. Before there was a chance the Chiefs lose to the Raiders and then the Bills have nothing to play for/sit some of their starters and that gifts a win to the Patriots. Now all of these teams is incentivized to play at full strength.

We should be pretty happy with this outcome because our Saturday scheduling disadvantage has at least for now been rendered moot.

If the Chiefs get the #1 seed in part because of this, we'll call it 1/17th, then that's just the way the cookie crumbles. There is nothing to get upset about. If the Tigers and Bills don't like it...embrace the suck.

Yep, they'll give the Bengals every shot. Thing is they don't even need it. They have a three headed dragon at WR.

100% chance we draw Cheffers crew

Well do some homework.

They need to make an actual decision in the next couple days. Can't have the entire league with no clue what's going on.

Very surprised this is what they came up with. But hopefully they'll clear it up tomorrow.

FloridaMan88 01-03-2023 12:44 PM

Remember the NFL conveniently timed Willie Gay's suspension over that ridiculous vacuum cleaner assault to end AFTER the Buffalo regular season game this year.

The Chiefs getting the #1 seed is only right.

Hammock Parties 01-03-2023 12:44 PM

Bengals won't be resting starters even if they beat the Ravens.

That game will determine 2/3 seed and potential HFA in the AFCCG.

No it's not and I was joking a little bit about the refs but that's going to be the narrative here I'm sure. But it's true that the best narrative is going to be the Bills going all the way for their teammate. If we get the 1 seed that's great but if we end up having to go to Buffalo and beat them let's go do it. We have a team that can do it and then no one can make excuses.
