Football Bills/ Bengals [cancelled - process in OP] - Page 190

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).

Incredible that they'd just Calvinball the postseason over one player injury

All of those details get lost in the noise.

I think it's quite obvious what it means and all signs have pointed to it this entire time. He said "the players". This definitely isn't about a "sound bite of a guy.."

But people like you will continue to pretend it isn't obvious for whatever reason.

That's one of the better solutions.

Are they trying to make this harder than it needs to be? Seems like a pretty easy decision... either say it was no contest with records remaining the same or a forfeit. Why the need to try to change the last 2 weeks of the season & playoffs all because 1 game couldn't be played.

And yet changing the playoff format a week before the playoffs start because one team didn't complete its schedule by choice still isn't a good solution.

Then have them rematch as the 2-3 on a neutral site if the Chiefs win against the Raiders and then have the AFCCG on a neutral site if the Bills win... It's shitty, and I hate it, but that's better

Shush now. We aren’t interested in logic anymore. We need to find as many ways as possible to be pissed off about we know not what.

Does the NFL really need to talk to the Colts?... They haven't hosted an AFC Championship in that stadium since 2010 and they won't get another chance anytime soon.

Neutral site is a hell of a lot better than KC being forced to go to Buffalo, when it looked like Buffalo had a 55% or higher chance of losing to Cincy the other night.

Of course not. Best solution would've been to play the game out. That's off the table now.

But now cincy may have to go to Buffalo, when they were leading them at home before the event on MNF

So Damar is making great progress, he was able to communicate with his family. They are saying he has no brain damage.

This is the best news we could ask for, THANK GOD!

The first thing he asked, "Who won the game"! There it is!

He fully expected that the game went on.

I understand that it was a very hard thing to witness, I understand that after seeing that it would be hard to impossible to play football immediately afterwards.

The Game SHOULD have been played in the next few days, period! Thats how it works, Even Damar expected that the game had been played.

cmh6476 · 01-05-2023, 02:42 PM

Are we conceding the Bills won't come to KC for the AFCCG?

That's bs if so.
