Remind me - Cincy wins and plays at KC, Buffalo wins and plays at a neutral site?

Doesn't this weather greatly hurt the Bills more than the Bengals?
I believe there's a contingent of Bills fandom that wanted a domed stadium at home (for competitive reasons).

Burrow bought enough time on 2-3 plays to make that drive happen.

Although that was probably more the pass rush getting home, there you go - this weather is going to make deep passing very hard, which is the one thing the Bills really rely on lately.

yes because even if Cincy won the death on the field game they would have had a worse record than KC. Alternatively, a Buff win would have given them the 1 seed.

I admit I was wrong about Romo. I liked him a lot during his first couple of seasons. I blame the baleful influence of Jim Nantz, the Wonder Bread Mephistopheles.

Snow/rain impact is often overstated. It’s the wind that can be a disruptive especially when it’s mixed with snow/rain. I don’t believe it’s windy there so it should still be a clean game.

Are the Bills playing with 10 men on defense to honor Hamlin or something?

Every single play has been a first down or puts them in 2nd and 5 or less.

Frankly, the media discounting the Bengals due to the OL injuries was absurd.... Bengals are the more complete roster.

Bills finally force a 3rd down.

This could only look better if it was a night game.

in other news, I watch a lot of football, it wasn’t until right now that I realized if the Baltimore Birds had Lamar they would have had a good shot of coming out of the AFC. I underestimated them most of the year I guess.

Yeah Romo would work well with a governor, but Nantz is the narcissist of narcissists as a PBP guy and does not excel in making his partner better. For better or worse Nantz allows his partner to just fill in space and yammer with minimal focus. Probably the same reason on the golf telecasts that Faldo grew old fast for me.

is he the baseball commissioners son? Heard that briefly on rewatchables but wasn’t sure if serious.
Yes. And in addition to being former MLB Commish, his dad was a renowned Early Modern English Lit scholar, specializing in the work of Sir Edmund Spenser. Boston native, too.

Yes, I agree Mahomes needs to get more rings, but one thing that is not comparable is how much worse KC’s defenses have been in Mahomes’s tenure. He HAS to put up at least 30 every game.
And on the flip side, he’s had better skill position people around him most of that time than Brady ever had.

Yeah, not sure how that wasn't unabated to the QB. Since he was, you know, unabated.

Jesus, what a disappointment the son must have been to this guy.
