This weekend: KC LOSS, BUF WIN, CIN WIN... Bills #1, KC #2, Bengals #3 seeds. (Bengals possibly 'robbed' of #1 seed)
Playing the Bills/Bengals game could result in the Bengals getting the #1 seed. Bills don't want to play.

This weekend: KC WIN, BUF WIN, CIN WIN... KC #1, Bills #2, Bengals #3 seeds. (Bills possibly 'robbed' of #1 seed)
Playing the Bills/Bengals game could result in the Bills getting the #1 seed. Bengals don't need to play.

The NFL needs to decide before Saturday whether the Bills/Bengals game is being resumed.

Because without it being resumed,

Bills do not control their own destiny anymore to getting #1 seed - they need help from the Raiders. And if KC wins, Bills are #2, and have no reason to play vs. Patriots on Sunday, they can rest.

Bengals won the division against the Ravens. They have the #3 seed locked up regardless of the result on Sunday. Bengals can rest.

Both the Bills and Bengals will NOT rest their players if there is a resumption of the Bills/Bengals game in Week 19.
