THE GAME... what should NOT happen.

First playoff games are on Saturday (1/14) at 4:30 PM and 8:15 PM.  That's eleven days from now.
Next set of playoff games are on Sunday (1/15) at 1:00 PM, 4:30 PM and 8:15 PM.  That's twelve days from now.

Either the Bengals or the Bills would be playing wildcard weekend.  If the NFL tries to reschedule this game, one of these teams is going to have to play three games within twelve days.  That's absurd, and dangerous.

Best thing to do is either declare a tie or a no-contest.  This will affect seeding, and teams are simply going to have to grit their teeth and understand the extreme circumstances of this and adhere to the humanity side of it.

Bengals plays 430 game Sunday also.. i see a no contest coming makes the most sense, it does not impact any of the WC teams getting into the playoffs, it impacts seeding between Chiefs ( but if they win Sat. does not impact them) Bills, Bengals and Ravens . The Ravens get the worst of this no contest, they would be locked out of division now
