Football Bills/ Bengals [cancelled - process in OP] - Page 392

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).

Still, there are a few guys that get it. It's all in the rule book that was written well before a week ago.

Yeah there's a few MEN in that thread among the crying beta bitches.

They hauled ass home back to Buffalo quickly as well.

Urban Meyer stayed behind in Cincy longer to finger chick’s asses than McDermott spent at the hospital with Hamlin.

Many of them act as if Buffalo didn't quit vs. Cinci.

When a team is unwilling to finish a game for ANY reason, it should be a forfeit. 8 Players die at halftime during a freak mascot-related incident? That sucks, you forfeit. The team plane crashes into a mountainside? That sucks, you forfeit.

Biggest crybaby team and fans are the Buffalo Bills.

As pointed out by someone else earlier, when Javon Belcher offed himself outside of our practice facility, we didn't get shit

Yeah, you can't have it both ways... either deal with the consequences of wanting the Bengals to take the no contest or take the forfeit.

Being entitled to the no contest and then whining about the Bills being the team that's screwed is ****ing reeruned.

It would be one thing if the NFL immediately swooped in, said the game was cancelled forever, and they'd figure it out... but, seems like the Bills had chances to resume play and instead flew home.

Well, either be mad at your own team or be happy they prioritized mental health over playoff seeding.

I looked up the Belcher incident mostly to refresh my memory of the timeline.

I simply read the Wiki page so not claiming it as definitively accurate but there was a nugget in there about how the NFL met with the Chiefs and a decision was made between the two of them to play the game the next day with the Panthers.

So while obviously not perfectly aligned with the Buffalo situation, if you believe that really transpired between the NFL and KC, then its not out of the question to speculate something similar likely occurred between the NFL and Buffalo about how they wanted to handle it.

Wow, I was actually under the impression the AFCCG had already been moved to a neutral site. Obviously that only happens if BUF, not CIN, advances.

Lol!! No worries then.

I don't think "no contest" should even be an option, except under circumstances where neither team can physically get to the venue (supervolcano eruption, extinction-level asteroid impact, etc.)

The team that is unwilling or unable to continue play should receive a loss. If both teams quit mid-game simultaneously, the current score should be the final score.

Have you guys noticed the NFL made rule changes in favor of BUF TWICE this year? First the Playoff OT then rule now the potential neutral site. That's never happened.

The timing of the Willy gay suspension was suspect as hell too. It just seems like the league has done everything it possibly can to help Buffalo this year.

Jesus Christ Bills fans are major pussies.

DRM08 · 01-09-2023, 01:21 PM

They dodged a loss to Cincy that would have given the Bengals home field advantage on Buffalo. The Bills ended up with a home game against Cincy and neutral site game against KC, which is not bad for Buffalo at all. The Bengals got screwed. They should have a neutral site game with Buffalo.

**ptlyon** · 01-09-2023, 01:22 PM

I think we all know deep in our guts what's going to transpire

It was better days when they cried about J.P Losman and Doug Flutie. Less broken tables back then.
