NFL Week 18: Titans-Jaguars game flexed to Saturday night with AFC South title on the line

https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-week-18...045256082.html


The Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Tennessee Titans on Saturday night to conclude a doubleheader this coming weekend. The winner of that game will win the AFC South and earn a spot in the postseason, where the victor will host a game over wild-card weekend.

Saturday's game will follow the Kansas City Chiefs’ contest at the Las Vegas Raiders. Both games will be on ESPN.


My notes: The games are at 4:30 and 8:15 pm ET. The NFL says that the rest of the week 18 schedule "will be announced during or immediately after" tonight's game.

C'mon Tennessee!! Weird bounces, special teams play, Defense. Use their one time wish against Jax then we smoke them in the playoffs.

I will go to that game possibly if so!

Don't we have a Nashville Chargers fam here rooting for the same thing?

I think Tennessee can keep it close but they're starting Josh Dobbs in what's basically a playoff game...that's not a good spot to be in.

They’re gonna need a heavy dose of Derrick Henry

Outside of the very human tragedy of what transpired last night...and hopefully we get a happy outcome there....what on earth are they gonna do about this game? Time is running out to get it played...but what is fair? Buffalo forfeit? If the Bengals are gracious, and accept a mutual forfeit, with the game resulting in a tie....can that even happen? Is that fair to KC and the Ravens...and any other team, whose playoff scenario may be effected...

Obviously the human side of this story is more important by far....but I am curious how the NFL is gonna handle this...any opinions on what should happen?

I agree that it made things complicated. I think they should have treated it like a concussion injury. Tua’s concussion against the Bengals was scary as well but the game resumed.

I don't care what they do really. They will figure out.
Hey this was also FF championship week and don't care what they do about that either. It will get figured out.

Best thing is maybe move things back a week but we'll see.

Hard to say. I have to say that I believe the NFL fully intended for the game to resume, but were met with an impromptu work stoppage situation mutually agreed upon by both of the teams. How they navigate the optics and logistics of this incident will be quite interesting. Finding a mutually agreed upon framework for all parties involved will be difficult. Honestly, from my perspective, I don't believe the Bills will even attempt to play their next opponent. This may be a prolonged situation as it regards Hamlin's condition, as it will likely take days to analyze brain activity and determine when his teammates will be able to speak to him, or whether they will be able to at all.
