THE GAME... what should NOT happen.

I like what another dude said, about us forfeiting but on the provision that we'd host any playoff game between the two of us. That would mean we don't just get handed the AFCN (keeps the Ravens happy). Means KC don't just get handed the #1 seed. Seeding would be mostly unaffected too, as in most likelihood, our game with Buffalo probably just decides who is #2 and #3. I know #1 is in play for us, but I personally think KC will win in Week 18. This scenario would also allow Buffalo to have a crack at #1 as it was still in play for them.

That would keep the playoff picture relatively honest, while being compassionate with both Buffalo/Cincinnati AND the schedule. I think KC would be the team most screwed by the above potentially.

It's tough to resolve in any case. 

KC controls the number 1 seed. If KC wins, they are the #1 seed. 

Frankly, I know it has to be discussed and the NFL needs an outcome, but to me a man's life is on the line and all that matters right now. The NFL outcome will upset someone, but I hope NFL fans and players value life more than a seeding for a playoff.
