You let them resume play from the moment the game stopped. It’s 7-3, with 5 minutes and however many seconds left in the first, down and distance, etc. may the better team win from that moment on. That would be fair. Or fair as it’s going to get. Far better than having the league office just arbitrarily declare a winner or a forfeit. |

This whole situation has turned into a complete cluster ****. :shake:
|
If the Bengals won then the Ravens would have been locked into the 6 seed and could have done whatever. As it stands, without a decision they have to now play the game as if the Bengals lost, only to maybe find out it was for nothing.
If the NFL said from the outset the game is being played tonight then they could give a forfeit to Bills. As it is they seem to have given them as much rope as they like and now are dealing with all kinds of regrettable scenarios because they didn’t just reschedule the game. |

But it's a conspiracy theory to assume that there are a significant amount of Bills players that still don't want to play Sunday? |

I would expect pretty much all of them to say something like this regardless of how much they do or don’t believe. |

If you or anyone else actually thinks any of this alleged “smoke” means the Bills are definitely angling to not play the game, I’ll take bets to the contrary. Lemme know. |

The moment the game was suspended, some team was going to feel like they got screwed somehow no matter how it played out. Or at least their fanbase(s) anyway.
I don’t get chiefs fans feeling that way, as the Chiefs are really in the same exact boat they were in before what happened anyway, but whatever. Chiefs still have to win out, and hope BUF loses a game. SSDD. |
Chiefs 1st seed.
Bills Bengals playoff game Then 4th seed plays 7th seed 5th seed plays 6th seed. |

Or it could be that they're milking the situation for an extra week off. |
Of course they're going to say that. What are they supposed to say? "It was really scary, but sounds like he might be okay someday? Either way LET'S PLAY SUM FOOTBALL."

Quote:
Hence why they should forfeit as opposed to making any drastic changes to the schedule for the rest of the season. |

You guys listen to New Heights this week? Kelce seemed really down discussing the situation and like he didn’t even want to play this weekend. What a pussy. /cp

Players not wanting to play this week (or at least saying it’s a tough decision) makes as much sense as if you see a meteorite hit a car and decide you can’t drive for a week or longer. It’s understandable you are maybe a little worked up but it’s not understandable to have this mindset like it’s now all of the sudden scarier and you need to change driving habits to the detriment of your work or responsibilities.

Burrow had even started warming up again. Of course they don't want to play, but I'm sure they wouldn't have walked out of the stadium if they were told the game would continue, either. The blanket social statements about generations and what not are reeruned and pointless... the outcome determined by a few people don't dictate broad social conclusions for everyone involved. |

We have been truly blessed. For the most part the last 30 years have been an oasis in the desert. That said we aren't use to dealing with the worst parts of life like previous generations were. Some of that is a good thing because we also aren't as accepting of those horrors either. |

At this point I'd be surprised if 80% of the league and a similar portion of college players were aware that playing football raises your risk of having a fatal injury before Monday night.

If you wanna take the rigged angle, it makes more sense for the NFL to let the Chiefs just have the 1 seed and declare their game a No Contest. That sets the Bills as the 2 and Bengals as 3. And if both teams take care of business, both of those teams will be set for a rematch in the divisional round as they'd face each other and the Chiefs would face the lowest seed remaining. Winner of the Bengals/Bills divisional game will receive an invite to the Arrowhead Invitational. |
