First, it's great to hear that Damar Hamlin is progressing to the point where he is awake, clutching his hands, and being more responsive. That was stellar news today.

Secondly, and this is something we've all been thinking about but what exactly is the NFL going to do with the Bills and Bengals in terms of playoff seeding, and what might they do in general if they straight up cancel that game, which it appears they're going to do
