There's a valid argument to be made about playing by percentages or if's for both rounds.
It's all so muddled and ****** up...i'm about done with it. Again, no disrespect to you, i'm just over it at this point.
Changing the rules on the fly when there is a rule on the books for this situation is insane, even if that rule hurts us, at least it is already in the book.

Cincy/Buffalo or Cincy/KC could be a neutral site as well:
Friday's passed resolution by the NFL consists of two main elements:
1) The AFC Championship Game will be played at a neutral site if:
Buffalo (12-3) and Kansas City (13-3) both win or tie in Week 18 + both teams advance to the AFC title game.
Buffalo (12-3) and Kansas City (13-3) both lose + Cincinnati (11-4) also loses or ties in Week 18 + Buffalo and Kansas City advance to the AFC title game.
Buffalo (12-3) and Kansas City (13-3) both lose + Cincinnati (11-4) wins + the AFC title game is either Bills-Chiefs or Bengals-Chiefs.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will determine the neutral site of the title game, if one is required.

If K.C. loses this weekend and Cincinnati wins, K.C. should not be the #1 seed. It should be either Cincinnati or Buffalo.
If the Monday night game is not canceled and Cincinnati wins, Cincinnati would have been the #1 seed. If Buffalo had won the Monday night game, they would have been the #1 seed. Rewarding K.C. the #1 seed if they lose is crazy

Don't worry. This is more motivation than even the Bills get. And Bills defense will be bad.
