I agree that it would have been nice for a decision to be made prior to the Bills leaving.  But I get why they didn't spend the night.  The logistics involved in that volume of visitors is complicated for a last-minute change, and given the emotional nature, having them at home that night was for the best.  Buffalo isn't far away, so the flight to return would have been easy enough to arrange.  The league just should have had an answer for everyone the next morning, which was the big miss.
