2022 NFL Thread

Honestly surprised the NFL did more than just saying the game is cancelled. The neutral game site thing is about as close as we could get to handling this all fairly I suppose.

Edit: the bengals ravens coin flip thing is absolutely bizarre. I don’t get it at all.
I would have liked the idea of playing NFC wild cards and Bills/Bengals the 1/14, 1/15 weekend. Then play the AFC wild cards 1/21, 1/22. Divisional rd 1/28, 1/29, Conference title games 2/5 and superbowl 2/12,
 
well. That Rams roughing the punter call was as bad as it gets in 2 ways.. No idea how they missed that one.. and then the roughing on Geno if anything should be on him not the guy he tried to run over.. Then some life in the lions with the missed fg.. quite the ending so far.
When fans say "Only my team can __" I normally roll my eyes.
It's really only the Lions & maybe Browns who can challenge the Bills in devastating gut punches.
Getting jobbed in a game they weren't involved in is a new one.

so now that the Cinci coin flip scenario is no longer in play, I assume their fans will stop crying about the playoff seeding?
 
Not if they end up having to travel to Buffalo, right?
Probably, yes.

Maybe if they had beaten teams quarterbacked by Mitch Trubisky, Cooper Rush or Jacoby Brissett, it wouldn't have been an issue?

C'mon now admit it. If the Bills were in that scenario you'd be howling til the cows came home.

One thing those games have in common is they took place 3-4 months ago.

Not really. I said during MNF, and as recently as yesterday, that I'd have been fine with a Bills forfeit.

Did the Bengals have the same, or better, record as the Bills?

And they all count the same in the standings as games that occurred this week.

That move to flip a coin was roundly criticized around the NFL. It was a goofy decision.

You ridiculed them a few times for being in a tight game on the road at NE. Your boys were in a similar scuffle today at home with NE. That's the NFL. This isn't the BCS. There are no style points for Ws.
 
Then why did u bring it up?
I pointed out that the issue was moot now.

Hey look the Bills are my second favorite team. I root for them. But I have to chuckle sometimes at your homerism. It's a moot point but yet you need to take a shot at Cinci fans. They had every right to complain about the coin flip. Bills fans would have done the same if in the same spot.

Yes, it's a 100% moot point, because they didn't lose a home game to a team playing its 3rd string QB. You're agreeing with me that it's a moot point (as I said in my first post tonight regarding this issue), so I'm not sure what your point is here.

Seemed like NE was pretty lucky to get back in that game but in any case, Cincy was in bad shape before that fumble.
I think the Pats recovered all 6 fumbles in the 2 games vs us.
 
The Patriots have been wonderful to me my entire life until now but man I love Dan Campbell and the Lions

My point is you're ridiculing Bengals fans for being ticked about the decision to decide home field advantage on a coin flip when they had a better record than the Ravens even going into today's game. As I've stated a few times if that happened to Buffalo then you and many other Buffalo backers would not be happy.

I was listening to the game on my way down to the Philly/NYG game so I don't have a complete picture of how it went but the Buffalo announcers were complaining about the Bills' defense in terms of lack of pass rush pressure and poor coverage in the secondary. Certainly seemed like a highly competitive game. Obviously the two KO returns were huge.
