Now for the NFL, what a ****-show.

ESPN is reporting that there was only 1 "NO" vote, and it came from the Bengals. According to Zac's reaction, I totally believe it.

The situation happened, it is what it is, and we have to deal with it. But man, the Bengals potentially not even getting one home playoff game after winning a division by virtue of a coin flip is just crazy.

And, the Bengals potentially having to go to Buffalo in a Divisional round game is crap. Bengals are a decent road team and have won playoff games in the road before,, but they have been really good at home this season and I believe they just got hosed from that.

I think that if Cincy beats Balt and Buffalo loses to NE that possibly Cincy can move to the #2? Maybe you guys can explain that one to me. Regardless,,,, I'm rooting for NE to play out of their minds and get a win this week (can't believe I am saying that).

Buffalo is a good team. But really, I think they are the 3rd best team in the AFC, and maybe even worse that LAC which would put them at 4th.
KC and Cincy are better.

Going to be an interesting playoffs for sure. Mega-controversy already exists.

How is BUFFALO getting screwed? This was all done to benefit them and make it 'fair' for them.

If anyone got really screwed out of this deal, it's the Bengals.

As far as KC goes, once they win on Saturday, they are going to become the first #1 seed to NOT get both the bye and HFA (assuming the Buffalo Snowflakes beat NE).

So how exactly does this scenario benefit KC??

Any Bills fan or troll feel free to weigh in. I anxiously await your response.

Okay that's good news (a slimmer of hope for the Pats to beat Buff).

Thanks!

The League is really putting in the PR work on this one. You'd think this decision was non-controversial and normal business, listening to most of the media.
