That is why I stated the team controls their own destiny. They beat the Ravens and it is essentially like none of this even happened. The game was a no contest, it didn't happen. Bengals win their division, but because of the cancelled game, the seeding would be by rule Chiefs, Bills, Bengals. Now to host the game they want the Bengals to win, okay... it's dumb and annoying, but at the same time it is something the Bengals should do.
I'll consider it an issue when it is actually an issue. I don't understand the need to stress about something that:
1) Hasn't happened yet. (Again, if they follow the rules exactly as stated, the Bengals are locked as the 3 seed win or lose)
2) And all the bitching in the world on this message board doesn't change.
People on here are popping a blood vessel and there was even a thread about filing a suit in court. Seriously... that is just absolutely absurd. This is a game, it is entertainment. When people get this worked up over something that hasn't even happened yet, it is a problem.
If the Bills lose and the Bengals win, a lot of fans on this board have a massive amount of walking back and crow to eat about the league being fixed and the league out to get the Bengals.
WHY STRESS OVER SOMETHING THAT MAY NOT EVEN HAPPEN!!!!
Actually, they would have had a shot at the second seed if they followed the pre-adjusted rules. It would basically have been the same scenario as now minus the possibility of the coin flip and potential neutral site home field.
It's confusing to watch you accuse other posters of getting worked up while typing in all caps and throwing around demonstrably uninformed assertions.
