ChiefsPlanet - Football Bills/ Bengals [cancelled

Yarp. But they're also playing a PR game, so I'd prefer the rat****ing to be as gentle as possible. And as far as rat****ings go that's just a Halloween Snicker dick with copious lube, at least for the Chiefs. Ravens got the shit stick.

yep the ravens definitely got shafted out of a potential division title and home playoff game.

I guess they could still have a home playoff game if they win and then win the coin flip if they play the bengals

That would be a good guess.

Feels like it is simply a waste of time to be mad about them not playing the game. It really was never going to go down like that. Once you accept that this feels like the best path forward.

Allen's going to be like Vietnam flashback dog sniffing cupcakes in the redzone and you know Belichick is bummed to hear that Hamlin is on the road to recovery.

So this could get interesting.

Exactly. This honestly is the best scenario we could have asked for, and people are still bitching and moaning.

The best scenario we could have asked for is actually following the rules that the league had in place and not changing them out of the fear of a perception of inequity because one team decided not to play a game.

OK. A forfeit would have avoided unnecessary drama.

Literally the only difference between this and a forfeit is the AFCCG site. That's it.

And if the Bills had somehow beaten the Bengals, this is a much better outcome for us.

If you had told me when the game was 7-3 that we were given the option of playing that game out and taking the outcome OR having a chance to beat the Raiders and get a bye independent of the outcome of Bills/Bengals while potentially sacrificing a home AFCCG for a neutral site, I would've taken that in a heartbeat.

That's the calculus.

Hell, the Bengals got ****ed worse than we did. They didn't even include a provision that a potential divisional with Cincinnati and Buffalo be played at a neutral site and it's literally impossible for them to get the #1 seed without strings attached. It would've been if they won the cancelled game and we lost to the Raiders.

Would love to win a playoff game there and curse that stadium forever

Best way to view it is that conference title games in college are neutral site locations. So that's potentially what we have here. Not too bad.
