NFL says Bills at Bengals game can't be rescheduled this week. The NFL says Week 18 goes on as planned. The next week is The Play-Offs. So what the NFL is going to have to accept and announce is that the Bills at Bengals game can not be resumed. The right thing to do is call it a No Contest. This way casinos and such have to give the money back on bets, do not call it a Tie Game that lets casinos work the point spread. Do not call it a Tie game and keep the fans ticket money. Calling it a No Contest means Bills have won AFC East and Bengals have won AFC North. Week 18 and the next week Play-Offs do not make room for this Bills at Bengals game. Just cancel it and call it a No Contest and Fans and Betters get their money back.
On Ravens at Bengals, If NFL agrees that Bengals have won AFC North, but can not get AFC top seed Bye Week. IF that is the what happens, then I'm all for benching Burrow, Higgins, Chase, Hurst, Mixon against Ravens as Bengals benched these type players against Browns end of 2021 season. It helped the Bengals go into play-offs healthy and go to Super Bowl. Burrow will take plenty of hits in the play-offs as last year, so save him for play-offs. Chase, Hurst, Higgins, Mixon have all missed games due to injury this season, so save them for play-offs.
Plus because of awful injury in Bills at Bengals game, neither Bills or Bengals players are going to be mentally ready for Week 18, which NFL says goes on as normal. One more reason to not play Burrow and key players with Play-Offs scheduled for the next week, something The NFL can not change. This way the Ravens game really doesn't matter. Let Bengals and Bills have some time to deal with this and they can do that already in play-offs. These players should be in a better mental place over this going into Play-Offs the week after Ravens.
Now if NFL say they will resume game, that changes things. I don't see how NFL can. NFL says it won't be resumed this week. NFL says week 18 goes on as normal. NFL has Play-Offs the next week. Unless NFL owns a Time Machine, there is no Time to play the majority of the Bills at Bengals not played. If Bengals and Bills win in play-offs, they might meet again anyway.
So I'm al for benching Burrow Sunday, and others, if NFL says Bengals have already won AFC North due to Bills game unable to be finished before Play-Offs. Ravens have 2 more loses with one week to go. Their loss to Steelers is Ravens fault.
Prayers for this Bills player and Family. But also why risk injury to Burrow and other key players if Bengals have won AFC North and can not get the top seed bye week now. Ravens game is a game too easy to get key players injured in. Bengals need Burrow and Company healthy to have a chance in Play-Offs as like last year.
All that aside. Prayers to Damar Hamlin and Family.
