ChiefsPlanet - Football Bills/ Bengals [cancelled

Can someone explain to me wtf the probable divisional round game of Buf/Cin is not being played at a neutral site? Bengals were getting ready to take command of that game and when they win they host the divisional game vs Buffalo. Instead a Bills player gets tragically injured and because of that the Bengals are forced to fall on the sword and now have to travel to Buffalo to play that game? Pure freaking garbage!

Buffalo & Cincy should be a neutral site game, but the league office chose to screw Cincy in a bad way. Awful decision.

The two teams would have the same number of games played and "agreed" to not play each other, so there's no "what-if" about their record and seeding.

They had to do some kind of compromise with the Chiefs/Bills after botching shit, but it's much more clear cut for Bills/Bengals.. just go off their records and tie breakers as usual.

I keep seeing it brought up that we lost to Buffalo and Cincy, but another way to look at that is we have the strongest losses. We lost close games to the two other best teams in our conference, and the third game was a close loss on a taunting call. Buffalo lost to two .500 teams and got shut out by Carolina. The Bengals lost 4 games, one of which was a 19 point loss to Cleveland.

I'd agree if the Bengals really did want to play (who the hell knows)... if it really was a mutual agreement to not play the game, then both teams can take the consequence, which is just going off record and acting like that game never existed.

If Cincy and Buffalo meet in the Divisional Round the game should be played in Cincy regardless of the seeding.

Maybe they did. I’m just guessing they abstained from voting on it.

Considering how the Bills organization lacks honor by not forfeiting after refusing to play, I'd bet that they didn't abstain, and voted "Yes".

Can't play their 17 game season & they have to have rules changed mid season for them because they are sad. Really nice to have things back to normal with everyone hating the Bills again.

They already got the OT rules changed this past offseason.

They were gifted by the NFL with a domed game, when they played a run-oriented team/Cleveland rather than having to play in the elements of their home stadium.

Buffalo and their fans fully expect the NFL to carry them to a Super Bowl trophy.

I think Atlanta is the best option.

Easy airport to get in/out of, lots of hotels, not really within easy driving distance of any of the involved teams so no one has a travel advantage, etc.

That’ll work
