#1. There is no way they are moving the Super Bowl date. Impossible.
#2. Eliminating SB & Pro Bowl week would cost a ton of $$$ and the contract obligations & liability would be enormous.
#3. Replaying this game in week 19 would result in the Bills and Bengals playoff opponents receiving a bye before playing them providing an obvious advantage. If the Bengals were to win it would give KC 2 bye weeks were they to beat LV.
Least impactful scenario is to give the Bengals the win - they were winning and the Bills could not finish (heartless I know, but it is the only "earned" solution)
2nd least impactful would be a tie. This would negatively impact the Bengals, Bills, Ravens and help the Chiefs.
Other 2nd least impactful would be a tie. This would negatively impact the Bengals, Bills, Ravens and help the Chiefs. Unless the NFL decides to go by division wins instead of win percentage then it benefits the Ravens.
The longer it goes the more I believe this game will not be replayed. For so very many reasons. The main one of course being Damar and the players. Then of course all the schedule problems and just on and on.
I'd guess right now as you say they'll come to a decision like Bengals win, Tie, no contest.
Just praying Damar pulls through this for now.
