This wasn't a blizzard, power outage, lightning, mass sickness (covid), natural disaster,  or any outside situation that theoretically made the game unplayable. This per reports, were the decision of coaches which accounts pretty much to a refusal to play. Walking off the field. Honorable no doubt, but not an emergency situation causing the game to be cancelled..... This is why it won't be continued.

I repeat this was still very honorable ....... And we all should be proud of Zac's leadership, but it was optional.

The NFL had determined this game was not going to resume, the impact of what happen on the field never came into play anyway... from what I read in the Article, I don;t see any clear cut language that says this game has to be played or that the commissioner with others can determine not to play the game.
