1. Team loses 1 home game of revenue (will have to refund tickets for Buffalo game).
2. Bengals only team in NFL to get 7 home games in 2022.
3. Declared winner of AFCN, but may have a road playoff game (more lost revenue).
4. Potential loss of 2023 draft position.

I understand it was a tough call, but the NFL threw rules established out the winner and came up with a new set of rules.

I continue to pray for Hamlin, in  my heart I feel he will not be happy with a team and city being screwed by the NFL by doing the right thing by him.

Getting one less home game is not unprecedented. Every team that is designated the home team when they play in England or Mexico loses a home game. It's happened to the Bengals before. Doesn't make it any better, but that's the least of my complaints about this.
