Football Bills/ Bengals [cancelled - process in OP] - Page 40

In case anyone needs it spelled out, we would play at a neutral site if the AFCCG ends up being Chiefs vs. Bills. All other scenarios abide by the usual rules (so any other game the Chiefs play will be at home).

Same situation in 2001.

Through no fault of their own? How about win more games and quit trotting out RBs to play QB.

Not even the same, every game was played, just one week later than scheduled...

Every team didn't play in that week...

This isn't the same at all, we are talking about just 2 teams out of 32...

Go back to 6 teams in the AFC. Top two get byes. AFC South champ doesn’t get to go.

Problem solved.

I prefer the old format. The 7 seed doesn’t really do much but add a mediocre .500 team to the playoffs.

Why does the NFL not already have a plan for this? It was bound to happen eventually

**Rain Man** · 01-03-2023, 02:32 PM

Since we're all throwing proposals out there, how about this?

The Chiefs, Bills, and Bengals, all play on a triangular field. Each team rotates so that two of their units (offense, defense, and special teams) are playing on different parts of the triangle playing each of the other teams.

And the game is played at a point on the earth that is equidistant from all three cities, which I think would be somewhere north of Thunder Bay, Ontario.

That would just start the problem with the four teams who have a shot at the 7th seed. It would be a shitshow. Buffalo should play tomorrow then Monday or forfeit. They were likely going to lose last night anyway as sharp as the Bengals offense looked and losing another Dback early in the game before the Damar injury.

To keep everything fair, we would also need to eliminate the NFC South champ, so brady would have to go home.

I'm liking this plan.

Boom. We did it. It was all so obvious.

I'd like to see the Bills organization step up and take the league off the hook by forfeiting the game. They made the necessary decision to pull their team from play. They weren't going to win that game after the injury.

Maybe they want to wait until more is known to announce anything football related. But this feels like the right thing to do for all concerned.
