Official: (Bengals) Game will not be resumed this week UPDATE: OFFICIALLY CANCELLED

[Kiva]

We have to get away from the “woe is me”mentality.  
 

Bills deserve first round bye and home field. The league needs to make that happen. Go back to the old playoffs layout, whatever.  
 

We will not accept anything less than one seed, we’ve earned it and deserve it.

If it did though would it bother anyone? I know silly question. 

I'm not asking for any special favors, and I don't want any.  But the Bills lost out on a home game because of a massive snow storm, had another game severely disrupted by another storm, and very nearly had a player die on the field in another game.  Nobody is going to attach any asterisks to a hypothetical championship.  This team will have overcome plenty if they reach that goal.

Make it 8 teams, top 2 get a bye. And if the Bills and Chiefs play it should be on a neutral field in the AFCCG. 

[BillsSbSoon]

Normally I’d say bye without thinking twice about it and I’d prolly still take the bye if I had to make the choice, but on the other hand after these past few days If there was ever a time to have home field advantage it’s right now, so idk

Doesn’t work out.

 

8 teams means no byes.

 

All 8 have to play.

 

To have 2 bye - you actually have to eliminate a team and go back to 6 teams in the playoffs and now you have really potentially screwed the Bengals.

Duh, cause there'd be 5 teams left after Wild Card Week.

You have an odd number of teams left in the divisional round.

They’re voting on what to do with the playoffs. Goodell has the final say still.

I've always wanted to see a three-way NFL game.  Here's our chance.

If there were a year to win the superbowl this would be it. We will do it in such rare Billsy fashion that people will put an Asterisk next to it no matter what

Have the confidence to put your foot down. We are at a cross roads and need to take control of the situation. We are the best/ hottest team in the league, we beat the chiefs head to head. We cannot let the league roll over us and rip the 1 seed from our grasps. The time is now before a decision is made. We will not accept anything less than 1 seed. (Assuming we beat the pats)

The decision is definitely up to us: fans posting on a message board.

There is no such thing as an asterisk when you win the SB - even for the Patriots.

 

No one gives the '82 champ an asterisk because there was a strike.
