But yeah, nobody should be upset about what the league is doing here.

Nobody is thinking like that....nobody is making decisions off of this.

You are just another user in this thread who is making up absurd things to prop up their bad takes.

I'd love to know who the weasels on the comp com are that approved a neutral site for no ****ing reason other than feelings.

Probably a bunch of Chief-hating bitches.

I’m pretty sure Andy is on the competition committee

I believe the game should have been forfeited after it couldn’t be resumed by Wednesday night, but I also understand “the nfl is a business” and they have to keep their customers in mind when making decisions that transcend the sport itself and travel to all media.

Like I said. With everything taken into account, I’m not mad if that’s what passes tomorrow.

I'm just glad some of the more insane anti-KC ideas are not happening. Make no mistake, those ideas were floated through major media reporters for a reason. Someone came up with them, most likely the people in Buffalo. In the context of those floated ideas, a bye week and neutral site game is not terrible for KC.

The Bengals are the team getting screwed in a major way here, both in terms of their situation with Buffalo and their situation with Baltimore. Screwed on both ends of it for Cincy. They played the "nice guy" on Monday night and they're getting screwed big time for it.

Buffalo was going to lose to the Bengals before the incident happened

7-3. resume and finish it or accept it or take two ties

quit ****ing with the rules because people are in their feelings.

National Feelings League

It's absolute bullshit.

When the Bills finally play the Bengals they will regret this. There will be no hand-holding and singing kumbayah.

The Bengals extended an olive branch and the Bills took it and spit on it.

When voting tomorrow, the owners need to realize the unprecedented nature of the step they’d be taking.

Frankly, the currently proposed approach falls squarely into the category of “making it up as we go.” If the league wanted to have the flexibility to fashion an outcome based on the specific facts of a given case (as it’s doing here), the rules would provide for that. They don’t.


It doesn’t matter whether it’s the right decision or the best of various bad options. There’s a rule on the books. The owners will be considering a change to that rule, during a season.

They have the power to do it, obviously. But everyone needs to understand what this means. Settled, codified rules don’t matter during a given season, if 24 owners suddenly decide they no longer matter. The owners need to be prepared to cross that Rubicon when voting on the proposals they’ll consider on Friday.

At least somebody in the media sees the enormous problem with the league changing the rules midstream from a competitive fairness perspective. Just a horrible precedent. Where does it end exactly?

Yes, that’s why they all want them to win so bad NOW.

Which is fine. It just makes it weird they are so mad at something that is so clear.

No matter how you think it should have been handled the solution they are proposing favors the Chiefs out of the 3 teams.

Yeah, it generally helps the Chiefs in the sense that it all but assures us the 1 seed, but it makes the 1 seed less valuable because it moves a game against the 2 seed to a neutral site.

It's still far better to have a bye week than not, and to play the lowest seeded team left in the divisional round. But we did lose something important that we had an even chance of earning otherwise.

You can't really say we got hosed, but if you are irrationally convinced that Buffalo was definitely going to lose on Monday you'd feel we got a raw deal. Bengals still have a lot more to complain about.
