Irv Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) Agree with House. After the whole Devante Parker concussion, Pats would support Bills. I think Kraft donated 20 large to Damar's charity. Concussion Spotter! Kidding right? Edited January 4, 2023 by Irv 1 Quote

We saw last year how it backfired on us. We must control our own destiny, first round bye and home field. 1 Quote

JoshAllin Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 Well they won't be forced to play, but it wouldn't be a good look for the rest of the season 1 Quote

If we lost to the Bengals (certainly a possibility the way they were throwing on us and considering our injuries), then losing to the Patriots (or a forfeit) has no impact on our seeding / standing - we are at 3 with a loss to the Bengals, and remain a 3 with a loss to the Patriots. 1 Quote
JLO Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) I get the severity of the situation but whatever happened to a team dedicating the rest of the season to a fallen comrade? There have been millions of tackles in the 103 year history of the NFL and this is the first time something like this has occurred. I'm sure alot of players would rather get back on the field and re-focus instead of crawling into fetal position and quitting. Edited January 4, 2023 by JLO 1 1 Quote
Success Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 It's not really fair or probably how we should be as a human race - but life & work go on, and they should definitely play the game on Sunday (imo). Quote

We are not settling on 3. Our goal in 1 and once we finish and beat the Bengals game and beat NE we will be 1. Potentially Sacrificing a Super Bowl is not the right statement. 1 1 Quote

Beast Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) 57 minutes ago, HOUSE said: I would back the Bills decision if Hamlin does not drastically improve. So, what do you then tell the Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers, 2 teams fighting to make the playoffs? “Too bad, fellas! The Bills forfeited. The Patriots are in! Now go out there and risk injury for one more week just to keep us entertained! Sorry for all those injuries you guys suffered fighting for nothing!” Hell, the whole league should just pack it in and see you next season. Maybe. Edited January 4, 2023 by Beast 1 2 Quote

I could see the Bills not caring about a forfeit at this point, but the Patriots are in a win and in situation. The Dolphins and Steelers are also still alive for that spot and need NE to play and lose. The game will be played. Quote
