First, this was the laziest puss move by Goodell. They could have played that game if he wanted too. However, it would cost a bunch of income to do so. Second, if this same scenario had played out in the Super Bowl, you think they would not have finished the game? Lastly, if you were in attendance, and not get a ticket refund, all those fans should bring a suit against Goodell.

Burrow is 2nd in the NFL in TDs. This game would have drawn him that much closer to Mahomes in overall stats. Even a 6 TD type of game is never out of question for Burrow. Of course Mahomes has more stats when he has way more attempts, but Burrow had an opportunity to match him in TD passes. Which seems incredibly efficient.

Burrow also has a higher completion percentage than Mahomes.

Burrow had an opportunity at the #1 overall AFC seed.

Burrow, Mahomes, and Allen are all 3 worthy of MVP consideration. And this guy thinks it's ridiculous to assume he could have won the MVP when he would have beaten both? Factor in he plays for the Bengals and everybody considers the Chiefs and Bills better teams.

How convenient is that for him to say now? It's ridiculous to shite on people for believing he had a chance had he accomplished those things.

Stadium availability, locked in media, personnel availability etc.

They have no idea who’s playing who and where yet. How were all these things locked in already?

They did all sorts of ridiculous things throughout the year in 2020 and figured out how to get it done

Is it ideal? No. But neither is canceling a football game.

If only the Bengals got to play the Fighting Russell Wilson’s twice.

Burrow outplayed Mahomes 3 straight times in head to head matchups in 2022.

The billions of $$ you are speaking of are the television commercials and time slots of commercials that have already been sold in from 50+ major corporations.

if you actually believe this is a $50 billion decision. They would get those same slots wherever the games were rescheduled to. Changing the week doesn’t change the time slot. You’re overthinking this aspect of it. Those same people lost a lot of money not playing the Bills/Bengals game

He's getting outplayed by Tua, Hurts and Geno Smith, with the best WR core in the NFL... Wouldn't you get bored with eventually too?

No but there is a great chance he throws for 350 and 3 tds

Which would have his per game averages slightly behind mahommes, with wins against mahommes and Allen, and being on fire down the stretch. The MVP race absolutely would have been neck and neck

Anyone would hope that the compassion and support he showed in public would be the same behind closed doors. If not then be a man and be truthful.
