Zac Taylor isn't happy with the NFL's coin-flip decision.
CINCINNATI, OHIO - DECEMBER 11: Head coach Zac Taylor of the Cincinnati Bengals walks off the field after defeating the Cleveland Browns 23-10 at Paycor Stadium on December 11, 2022 in Cincinnati, Ohio. The NFL approved several adjustments to its playoff rules on Friday in the wake of the Cincinnati Bengals’ canceled game with the Buffalo Bills after Bills safety Damar Hamlin sustained a cardiac arrest on the field on Monday night.
Owners voted to pass several rules to help fix the scenario, which included a potential neutral site game in the AFC championship. Another, which Taylor isn’t happy about, is a potential coin flip to determine who hosts a wild-card game between the Bengals and Baltimore Ravens. The two teams will square off on Sunday to conclude the regular season. If the Ravens win, the league will flip a coin to determine who hosts the playoff game. That is done instead of traditional rules that use winning percentages in the case of canceled games.via the Cincinnati Enquirer
. "When a game is canceled, you just turn to winning percentage to clarify everything so we don't have to make up rules. There's several instances this season when a club is fined or people in our building are fined and we're being told, 'Follow the rules. It's black and white. It's in the rulebook.' So now when we point out the rules and you're told, we're going to change that, I don't want to hear about fair and equitable when that's the case.
If the Ravens win on Sunday, they’ll finish the season with a 11-6 record. The Bengals, under that scenario, would finish at 11-5 — which is slightly better than the Ravens’ record and would, under the old rules, allow them to host the wild-card game should the two teams meet in the first round.Though it’s been an extremely tough and unprecedented week for everyone involved — the least of which Hamlin, his family and the Bills organization — Taylor is trying to get past his frustrations.
