I told my Wife 2 days ago that they should just push everything back a week and have the Bills/Bengals as the only game the Sunday after this one.
The only thing that would have been affected in that scenario is that the Super Bowl teams would've only had one week to prep instead of 2.
As insensitive as people may think it sounds, these guys have to get back to playing football at some point, and the Bills may have to face the Bengals in the playoffs again anyways. So why avoid that game?
This season will have a small asterisk by it forever, thanks to this wild decision.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
