Mully and Haugh were discussing the possibility since Indianapolis and Detroit have declined the opportunity to host a possible game between KC and Buffalo. Would you go? |

Why wouldn't the NFL move it to a dome? I know Indy said no, but Atlanta, NO, Glendale, Detroit, Houston, SoFi...I would think one of those would be used right? Actually they should move it to Lambeau so that there can be a Conference Title game played there in which the Packers cannot lose. |

They should play on the infield at Arlington Park. A symbolic passing of the torch. |

Mully and Haugh were both in agreement that the game would be better played outdoors which is diametrically opposed to Bernsie preferring a dome game. |

Why would Indy or Detroit turn this down? I would think it would be a no brainer to get that crowd to your city. |

Can't be Chicago since some star will probably tear an ACL or something due to Soldier Field. |

Indy said they have a bunch of conventions and the hotels are nearly full already. |

Neither team has a dome. Match conditions to their stadiums. |

NFL isn't letting Buffalo anywhere near the AFC Championship game. Last thing the NFL wants is the NFL playoffs to become the Damar Hamlin show every week. Buffalo bounced by the divisional round. |

I don't get why they had to move the game to a natural site on the first place. Seems unnecessary. |

Damar Hamlin will be well enough to host pre game by that time. |
