The League Taught Taylor and Other HiCs a Lesson Today.

If players or the bills refused to play, then the league should have given a W to the Bengals. Since Taylor took the lead and agreed to suspend the game, which was unprecedented due to the circumstances, it appears it is coming back to haunt the decision. Apparently the (NFL) rules already existed for "emergency" situations like the one that transpired, but the NFL decided to forgo them and instead create a committe where the bengals org was overruled/outvoted, which they were participant in. Even the Bills owner alledgely voted unfavorably vs the bengals org. It is what it is now, easier to analyze everything in hindsight.

But, had the Bills won...which could have happened...and then the Ravens won next week, the Ravens win the division.

I see the coin flip as fair. We need to just beat the Ravens.

Where the mess was is the league should have immilediately stepped in and been like Play the game. Or moved it. Or cancelled it and gave the outcome.

The league did nothing for days.
