ChiefsPlanet - Football Bills/ Bengals [cancelled

So it sounds like the Bengals are now locked in at the 3 seed. They cannot get the 1 seed, which of the three teams, are the only ones with that limit. I don't see a path to the 2 seed for them either. If we lose and they win they still have one less victory so we are still ahead.

For the Bills to get the 1 seed they need us to lose and they win, now no longer having to worry about the Bengals outcome which would have been the case had they lost (and same as forfeiting) which is something I posted about earlier. The Bills actually had better potential outcomes by not playing the game with more to lose by playing it and I believe that motivated them to not try getting the game in.

If Cincy wins and Buf loses, Cincy gets the 2 (assuming the playoff machine is accurate).

And actually, yeah, I really wanted to watch that Bills/Bengals game too.

I agree, however, the more I think about it the more I think this will save us from a Flagfest in LV this Sat...

The Bengals are not gonna be happy when they play the Bills.

They just pissed away any goodwill.

Yeah, and whether they used this situation to lean on the NFL so things were tilted in their favor or the NFL did it voluntarily, it isn’t right.

That didn't change a thing. If we beat the Raiders on Saturday, the Bills and Bengals will be the 2 and 3 seeds. If they both win their WC games they will play each other and the Chiefs will get the winner of the 4/5 WC game.

There is no way those two teams can play each other in the AFCCG if we have the 1 seed.

You're such a ****ing simp.

It's because it happened to the Bills against the Chiefs. Nobody gave a single **** about it when it happened to the Chiefs.

I thought it was complete bullshit that the league ignored it then with only 2 votes in favor and then overwhelmingly approved it years later.

But there’s no part of me that thinks the change in voting pattern was because the owners hate the Chiefs and love the Bills.

If the Bengals bounce the Bills, can we go on 2billsdrive and ask them to join our playoff bandwagon?!

Yup, that’s exactly what I’m doing.

He’s saying the NFL is changing things to accommodate the Bills and points to today’s ruling in conjunction with the change to the OT rules as proof.

I’m making that up.

Dude, you're being obtuse.

Nobody thinks that the rule benefits the ****ing Bills or anybody going forward.

The point is that nobody gave a single **** until it happened THAT time.

Unless the Chiefs or Bills blow it this weekend, this is probably gonna be the divisional rd:

LAC @ KC
CIN @ BUF

Stidham is trying to prove himself both with the Raiders and other teams around the league for his next contract. I don’t think he will be tanking.
