EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 As I said earlier, this move will get us the publicity and media attention that we deserve. Finally get a prime time game. And yes, Thursday does not count.
JM57 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) I would call Bills/Jets a lock for the two team's TNF game. A trade for an established QB might be enough to get a Ryan/Belichick SNF or MNF matchup on the schedule Edited January 11, 2015 by JM57
Nick the Greek Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 A crappy Thursday game is my guess. That's all we ever seem to get.
Kirby Jackson Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) I would think that Bills at Jets is a Sunday or Monday Night (if not Thanksgiving). That game is probably bigger than a typical Thursday night. Dallas, New England and any of those high profile NFC East matchups could be in prime time as well. I am guessing that the Bills have 3 prime time games next year. Over/under? Edited January 11, 2015 by Kirby Jackson
Major Mud Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 It's been said that Wilson was not a fan of Buffalo hosting primetime games. Perhaps the Pegulas feel differently? I'm sure they want to convey Buffalo as a major sports market given their interests.The media covers the Hell out of those events. I for one love when the Bills are in primetime, that frees up my Sundays.
YoloinOhio Posted January 11, 2015 Author Posted January 11, 2015 I predict: Jets at Bills TNF thanksgiving Giants at Bills SNF
Kirby Jackson Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I predict: Jets at Bills TNF thanksgiving Giants at Bills SNF I am saying Bills at Jets Monday, Pats at Bills Sunday, Cowboys at Bills Thursday
purple haze Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) Guessing it will be a SNF Nah. Not unless the Jets draft Jameis Winston. Jets aren't a very talent team, and they don't have a dynamic player who draws attention on offense. Bills have Bengals, Cowboys, Colts, Eagles, Giants, Dolphins, Pats, Texans, Chiefs on the sked. Much better options for a prime time match-up. Bills v. Cowboys - MNF Bills v. Pats - SNF Bills v. Bengals TNF Edited January 11, 2015 by purple haze
Kelly the Dog Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I predict the first game Rex returns to NY will be a MNF game. The Bills with their hard hitting D and Watkins and winning record are a lot more of an attractive draw now anyway. Or if the first game is in Buffalo it could be that one. The Pegulas probably don't have the problems Ralph did with the games.

That seemed to work well for them in the sense that even if the game was terrible...it mattered as divisIonal games always do.

That seemed to work well for them in the sense that even if the game was terrible...it mattered as divisIonal games always do. True. I guess the Jets saving grace is that they HAVE to be TNF once, so in that case it's possible they match 'em up with the Bills.
Sojourner Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I would like to think so. If Douglas ends up the Jets coach? One of them has to go on primetime. Without any hesitation.
boyst Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 If Marrone some how gets the job in NYC then we will shirely get a night game. However, why would they put us on a night game when we've killed them the last few years? The schedule comes out before the draft, otherwise maybe they'd want to draw on early interest in one of the top QB's.

Bufcomments Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Guessing it will be a SNF hopefully later in the season
Kirby Jackson Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I believe Wilson did not favor MNF as the Bills have a lot more regional fans than other teams.That is true
Wesdawg Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 It's just so nice to be talking about primetime games again...
