Not to sound callous, but exceptions to a billion dollar league's sports rules shouldn't be made a week before the playoffs just because players on one team got upset by a very unfortunate medical situation. There's no point in having rules at all if you're going to abandon them at the first sign of adversity just because one team wants you to.

KC will get the bye and the huge advantage of Cincy and Buffalo having to play each other while winning 2 playoff games just for the right to play against KC in a neutral site.
I think that’s a fair situation, everything considered.

Fair would have been playing by the actual rules. The Chiefs may have gotten less ****ed than many other teams, but they still got ****ed and changing course like this still sets an absolutely brutal precedent going forward.
