I think we are moreso than anybody else, but I also think mostly everyone is getting crapped on in some fashion here.
Not to be forgotten the following:
1) KC/BUF are quite possibly giving up home field advantage for the AFCCG here.
2) BUF is giving up their control of the #1 seed.
3) BAL is giving up a shot at the division, and replacing it with being left to chance. They've basically swapped the chance we lost to Buffalo, with a coin flip.
We're giving up control of the #2 seed and a shot at the #1 seed.
We can argue about what of the above is fair and not, that's a separate discussion, but it's not like we're the only team giving up something.
For me the big thing being given up here is that potential home game against Buffalo in the playoffs. Not like we had that on lock, but neither did they. I don't think that element to this has been correctly resolved.
