And as the ambulance left that field, no one knew whether he would live or die.

Yes, but they knew he was stabilized a few hours later, and he was already improving on Tuesday... The more you think about it, the NFL rules should have applied even if he would have died. Resume the game per the current rules. I respect the Bills if they would have chosen not to play and receive a forfeit, but my guess is they would have played for Lamar, just like they are getting back on the field in 2 days...
