My wife and I visited Iceland 7 years ago. One day we took a tour on a glacier, which was overwhelming and surreal--- I was wearing a Sabres hat (the 2008 Winter Classic toque) and we were hailed by a couple from Buffalo on their honeymoon.
It’s funny how much I despise Bengals fans now. Great job guys! There’s nothing more endearing than uninvited guests coming over and telling us their dad can beat up our dad.
The Bengals were “handed” the North Division and higher seeding just like the Chiefs were “handed” the 1 seed with this proposal. If you’re so certain the Bengals won’t lose to Baltimore then why does it matter where the theoretical Wild Card game would be held?
The Bengals cannot be seeded low enough to miss Buffalo in the Divisional Round.
Edit: Honestly, I’m not sure I can work out all the permutations after a few beers.
Cincinnati and Baltimore is only a coin flip wrt the Wild Card Round. Baltimore was unfairly deprived at a shot for the AFC North with the Bills-Bengals cancellation.
The Bills would unfairly benefit if they host Cincy in the Divisional Round (assuming they both win Week 18).
There are several inequitable scenarios that need to be factored into this proposal.
If the Bills beat the Bengals in Week 17 and the Ravens likewise beat Cincy in Week 18, both the Bengals and Ravens would finish 11-6 but Baltimore would be 2-0 head to head. Strange that isn’t taken into consideration or did I get something wrong?
If Cincinnati and Buffalo both win in Week 18, a theoretical AFCCG between them would be at a neutral site, per the proposal. Cincy lost the opportunity to beat Buffalo in Week 17 with the cancelled game.
