The NFL set rules for cancelled games. They considered those rules to be the fairest option at the time. The Bengals probably considered those rules in deciding how hard to push for a rescheduled game.

Now the NFL has conveniently decided that those rules weren't fair and have changed them on the fly.  Would they have made those changes if the Bengals were in the position of the Bills, Chiefs, or Ravens?  Not likely.

There's one thing to do now.  Carve a path to the Lombardi Trophy like Sherman's March to the sea.  When Goodell comes out to award the trophy flip him a quarter.  There's your coin toss.

I would love to ask them to codify their new rules so that they fit future situations. Put what you just decided in the rule book. Of course there is no way they could  because they just made random decisions that were specific to each team.
