Football Bills/ Bengals [cancelled - process in OP] - Page 297

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).

It doesn't. (See the chart in the OP.)

We were good with that... However, the Bills down 2 starting dbacks probably weren't winning that game against Burrow. We'll never know, because despite Damar being out of grave danger on Tuesday afternoon, your team chose not to play...

Is the NFL going to pay for my travel cost if I want to attend the AFCCG at a now nuetral site?

Maybe they should make the Bills Org pay for that since this is for them.

But what about Nashville? Open air, grass field, good city to visit.

Nashville seems like a good idea IMHO. At least it’s not less than 2 hours from Cincy, which is the case for Indianapolis. Like you said, Nashville is a good destination town for visiting fans of all teams.

PR wise, the NFL is in a tough spot. They don’t want to look like a-holes that took away something because a player had a cardiac arrest on the field.

The public image of Hamlin waking up and being told “Congrats on waking up bro, but your heart stopping cost your team the #1 seed and HFA” is probably not a look they want.

You mean how the regular season works? Yeah...we understand that. This is the OT rules all over again. As far as I'm concerned....the Bills and their fans are a bunch of ****s when things don't go their way.

Agreed. If this does happen (the neutral site) then I hope Nashville is the spot. Just makes sense all around.

Expect it would be more like

"Your TEAM decided to forfeit your game in light of your injury, they let you down sorry"

because that is what happened.

If Raiders win, I am gonna blame all the "principled" whiners in Chiefs Kingdom.

What? If we don't beat the Raiders we don't deserve the Bye and 1 seed, period...

Then nut up and go win Hamlin a ring with the circumstances you've been dealt. Just imagine the documentary you could create after it.

Alright here is a chart. If Cincy is the #2 and makes the AFCCG and so does KC they play at a neutral sight. If Cincy is the #3 they play in KC This is so damn convoluted the NFL is just stupid.

Edit: Shit I didn't see this was in the OP but you can clearly see an option for KC and Cincy playing on a neutral sight. Buffalo loses and Cincy wins and it flips.

Nevermind I'm an idiot, that all goes away if KC wins. Sunday.

Let's hope for a Buffalo loss.

I'm sure they are considering that very strongly.

Going to be costly with all the extra weight of the 12inchers Chiefs fans are packing
