SVP and Ryan Clark were absolutely phenomenal last night. For what it's worth, I felt like Joe, Troy, and Lisa were doing the best they could do during the MNF broadcast, and I don't say that as someone who particuarly cares for Joe and Troy. But SVP's willingness to call the NFL out for trying to give everyone 5 minutes to get "warmed up" and back on the field was great.Love SVP, he's doing the best job he can in an incredibly difficult situation here.

I think everyone were trying to do their job, without speculating, because there was obviously no information to report, in an information business. Adam Schefter looked like he went through the ringer, Booger wasn't in great shape. Just hard all around.SVP and Ryan Clark were absolutely phenomenal last night.

It definitely was. I've seen some blowback about how everyone handled it, but I'm not sure what else they could have done on air. None of them had ever been in a position like that, and they had 3-plus hours of live TV to try to fill. Hell, I read one person complaining that Joe Buck threw it to commercial 4 times in a 5 minute span. I legit don't think anyone could have done anything more than what they were doing.I think everyone were trying to do their job, without speculating, because there was obviously no information to report, in an information business.

They're hoping they get a scenario where they do not need to play the game. Right now KC is 13-3. Buffalo 12-3, and Cincy is 11-4.I feel like I need to preface this so I don't sound like Skip Bayless. Obviously, nothing matters more than Hamlin's health and wellbeing.
Based on that announcement, I think the Bills will be forced to forfeit the game. With "Super Wild Card Weekend" coming up, and no changes to the Week 18 schedule, I'm not sure there's going to be an opportunity to play this game.
