We win the North, Bills stay in first seeding spot.

Not that it matters right now but think that’s how the league will call it a fair deal

No, Chiefs take over the 1st seed with a Tie.  Bills had the same record, but held the tiebreaker.

Took them long enough...

They have very little time in which to reschedule this to put it lightly.

Completely agree he needs to make some kind of statement as soon as possible.

As difficult as it would be and unfair to both teams to reschedule, play, then play next week, I assume they will do 1 of two things:

Since both teams had a drive, game can be called as is giving Cincy the win,

Play the game tomorrow or Wednesday and push both teams next game to next Monday.

Kudos to the fans at Paycor Stadium; all class tonight.

Color me surprised they did the right thing.

And then you're at a deficit for RD 1 of the playoffs.

Finally! The correct call

I don't think a tie. Probably a no-contest. Calling the game a tie doesn't make sense, since they didn't tie.

Agreed, very emotional situation and a lot of waiting with no information.

Ah shit you’re right would have been best way to cancel it.

I think even eagles fans wouldve been uncharacteristically classy tonight

Give both teams the win

Yeah, they’ve got experience with last minute cancellations with Covid.

It was the hit. He got hit in the chest. Unfortunately for this dude and his teammates (and all of us) I don't think he makes it out of this.

[Bengalstripes9]

To me it looked like a brain injury but what do I know. The way he fell back and his hands thrust up isn’t that similar to what Tua did?

You almost would need to award both teams a W if you don't finish the game.

Best thing is Cincy has some world-class medical facilities.
