Such a millennial response.

Pretty sure that dude you’re responding to is like 50

This has to be the only time in human history that this exact sentence has ever been written.

Except it’s not because there’s more involved than just rescheduling. This isn’t like changing a golf outing here.

I'm hoping the situation upgrades to "cluster ****" status.

What a bunch of ad hom nonsense.

BARS

Well, let us see what happens regarding any NFL decisions.

And if anything out of the normal routine, you guys can piss and moan about it.

Maybe a contest with a trophy for championship piss and moan.

Momentum is currently pointing toward Bills-Bengals not being resumed, with AFC playoff seeding based on winning percentage following the outcome of the Week 18 games. Per PFT.

The NFL dragging their feet on making a decision is legit annoying.

That is what I have been saying. If this benefits the Bills in anyway that is what you are going to see. This was a serious injury but so was Tua’s and when he left in an ambulance the dolphins finished the game and lost. Going forward teams may change their minds on how to act in that situation.

thats pretty wild. i would not be happy if I was cincinatti at all...


of course as a chiefs fan, this doesn't hurt us if we win so whatever


it still bugs me they did it like this though. its really not the right thing to do and I hope they change it and implement a permanent ruling

100%



super annoying

My wife will decide where we will get dinner on her own before the NFL moves forward with a solution here.

ROFL

NFL Updates for Bills/ Bengals reschedule [not happening this week]
 

Me: legitimate observations not even related to the Chiefs.

You: why are making this about you it doesn’t affect you and you are just pissing and moaning!

Funny thing is you are one of those people who pretends to converse in honest discussion.

It's the only solution that's ever really made sense. The game wasn't played. It should be recorded as such.

I can relate.

Good thing the NFL gets it, because a lot of fans clearly don't.

Can they please decide before kick off on Saturday?

I just realized there are KC Fans who think the NFL and most of America likes Buffalo more than KC.

LMAO.

Thing I wonder about is who all they needed to consult that has caused it to take this long? Their initial announcement about when the game needed to be completed seemed to be unilateral. I guess all the owners could be considered for input since precedent setting is involved.

Flip side for Cincy is it guarantees the North division for them. If they lost the Buffalo & Baltimore games, they might lose the division. If we end up with a No Contest for the Buffalo & Cincy game, it’s possible the Bengals will rest their starters in the Ravens game.

This is the most practical solution given the NFL's decision not to have them play this week, so I fully expect this won't be the way they go.

Hopefully the Pats can manage to beat the Bills and make it all moot if Cinci wins.

The NFL isn't going to move the postseason back a week. Even they aren't that dumb.

when am i allowed to post my die hard meme

Bullshit. They should have played the game yesterday or today. Honestly, they should have finished the game Monday night but I get it. But to just cancel shit out...bullshit. A player had a tragic incident, I get it. It was upsetting and disturbing. But we don't just start erasing shit because a player was hurt.

They should but will not. Chiefs win and the game will be played

It should be a forfeit by both teams if they aren't going to play. I know that's a bit insensitive to the guy that got hurt but I don't recall ever canceling a game because someone was hurt before. ****, we have had hurricanes that have devastated entire cities and all they did was postpone, re-schedule or move the game.

The comments section is hilarious.

They're day to day

It's a new world

I wouldn't put it past them to appease Buffalo. Also there could be even dumber solutions we haven't thought about it.

Yeah I can hear all the excuses from bills fans now...

Well obviously they should have played the game this week, but that isn't an option now because the NFL decided to allow a single team to dictate their entire AFC postseason schedule. This alternative is the best one left.

Oh man. I shouldn’t have looked.

If the Chiefs beat the Raiders, they’ll be 14-3. Since when is anything “gifted” to a 14-3 team? That’s such a damn good record.

"Nobody cares about the game right now" was the theme of the incident in regards to the outcome of the game. They made their bed, both teams mutually agreed to not continue. This is what they get.

I'm not arguing that, I am just saying the NFL is a bunch of bullshit anymore. Now if the Chiefs beat the Raiders, which they should, and get the #1, all we are going to hear is how the league wanted the Chiefs and bla bla bla. Plus, **** Buffalo, if I am Cinci I am ****ing pissed. They were winning and had a legit path to the #1 seed.

I wonder if the Bengals should’ve repeatedly said “we respect the Bills’ decision to not play, but we’re ready whenever they are.”

Could’ve either forced the game to happen or forced a Bills forfeit.

Sure fire two seed anyhow.

But did they agree not to continue knowing the game would not ever be resumed? I think the assumption by the vast majority was if the game was suspended it would be resumed in the next couple of days.

Oh I love it. It’s delicious. I want to bathe in the tears

Read about that awhile back. I also heard on the tour that some guy and his grandson almost got sucked into an industrial fan. They didn't die, though, and they just kept the tour going. When they complained, the head of the factory just said "Good Day, Sir" and didn't even give the kid any chocolate.

If the teams (especially the Bills) were pounding the table to play the game Thursday, then I’m sure it would’ve happened.

No way the League would pass on that money maker.

The same morons are probably in favor of giving a win to Buffalo & Cincy. Or that silly “random” drawing with a 81% chance of stealing a win from KC.

Lots of “the Chiefs are backing into the 1 seed”.

Uhhh…Chiefs were the 1 seed as of kickoff. The Bills were losing on the road to a top 3 AFC team. You’d have to think practically any projection would have the Bills losing that game based on how it started.

You know the Bills wanted to not continue as they were losing. I have a hunch their willingness to call the game had more to do with that than we would like to think. If they cancel the game then the Bills end up with the #2 at worst and if we lose to the Raiders then they still get the #1. It's Cinci that is getting ****ed out of the deal.

I have a feeling though that the AFCCG will be Buffalo and Cinci now. I would almost lay $'s on it, in fact.

If the Chiefs get the 1 seed and the Bengals win the North, that’s impossible.

Chiefs would draw the lowest remaining seed in the Divisional Round, which couldn’t be the 2 or 3.

Absolutely, it would have been a forfeit had CIN chose to retake the field. They didn't, this is the result.

This game isn't resuming next week unless the NFL pushes back the start of the Playoffs. That's not fair to any Playoff team.

This game will be officially cancelled soon.

I think there was at least a 50% chance of a Buffalo loss. Cincy’s offense looked unstoppable and they had the home crowd. The most fair approach is for them to play that game. But it seems like they don’t want to do that.

Do what? Dude, if the Chiefs lose their 1st playoff game there is nothing preventing a Buffalo vs. Cinci playoff.

When I worked in a warehouse we had an old guy die in the middle of the shift.

We just propped him up weekend at Bernie style and he held our drinks between breaks.

Great holder. Townsend could take notes.

Chiefs have risen from 50 years of no SB appearance to the most hated team in the span of three years.

What? The 2-3 would play if they both won...

absolutely hilarious

either cincy or buffalo gnashes teeth for 9 months over beating us in the regular season and never getting the chance to make it stick in the postseason LMAO

If the Chiefs are the 1 seed, the. Cinci and Buffalo can’t play in the AFCCG if they’re the 2/3. They can only play each other in the divisional round.

Chiefs would have the bye in the Wild Card Round.
2 vs 7
3 vs 6
4 vs 5

Divisional Round:
Chiefs vs lowest seed who wins in the Divisional Round (can’t be higher than the 4 seed)
The other two winning teams from the Wild Card Round would also play

The 2 and 3 couldn’t play in the AFCCG, because if the both win in the Wild Card Round they would then play in the Divisional Round.

Correct. His post said he thinks they’ll play in the AFCCG. They would play in the Divisional Round.

You can't play three games in one week. Let alone the third game would be a Playoff game against a team that had a full week of rest.

Meh, fair enough

So basically the NFL rigged the playoffs for the chiefs?

I mean they should have already played it and they chose to not do it. They could also go with moving the playoffs by a week.

Given it sounds like the Bengals have been fully on board with not resuming this week this is the only thing that makes sense. Bills lose a chance at one seed but that could have been the case no matter what by their game. The Bengals and Ravens get a bit screwed as well but the Ravens probably had no chance of winning without Jackson anyways. Those hoping for a Patriots loss aren’t as happy depending on what the Bills but again that could have been the situation anyways. But I’m guessing Bills might play anyways.

Two Bills Drive taking this well.

I’m sorry,

But the Buffalo forum is pathetic, this is about them and they can’t even get to 1k posts. Why the **** is CP so unique? Are we all just football autists

Are Bills fans back to caring about football? I thought this was all about the person and not the player.

Oh no they are going to start another 45 post thread about us

They seem used to taking it well

If Damar is still in limbo by the end of the week, I'm going to guess the Bills hold a team vote on Friday or Saturday, and determine that Damar would want them to play (which is of course true). That's usually how these things seem to go.

Well if their boy doesn't fumble the snap and give the game away to Minnesota, none of this would matter.

they're still whining about coin flips LMAO

If the league mandates that the Bills
go back to Cincinnati and resume this game, say next Thursday or Sunday… do we even know if Damar would be out of the hospital? Of course the answer is we don’t know. He could be there for a few more days if improving, a week or a few weeks.
I mean there’s just no way the league would send the Bills back to that stadium with our guy still in the hospital a few miles away. Maybe that’s too dramatic of me, i don’t know.
As others have said, i think the Bills
will have the loudest voice in the room on how they best feel this should be resolved.


That is a real post over there…. “OMG DAMAR AND PLEASE LET BILLS DECIDE”

**** bills fans bunch of pussies using a injury to justify 1 seed lmao

I just realized that no matter what happens the league is going to be completely in the tank for the Bills the rest of the way.

I don't think either Buffalo or Cincinnati want to play this game now.

gonna guess chiefs #1 seed odds hit near 90% in the next 48 hours

bills won't make it out of the WC round

They saw the same thing everyone else saw before the horrible medical problem. The Cincy offense was torching Buffalo’s defense. Cincy also had the home crowd. Pretty high percentage chance it’s a Buffalo loss if the game is played.

Please make it official and I'm good
