RCOHEN13 Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Any chance you guys think any of our remaining games get flexed to primetime game?? If we somehow can beat the Pats, and houston wins next week, i could see bills at home getting flexed to SNF with both teams in the hunt, especially with Houston still in the hunt for their own division as well as a WC. That would be fun to see, i love the Bills in primetime especially at home! I'll never forget flying up to see that MNF game vs Cowboys where it was our 1st MNF home game in years, and picking Romo off like 4-5 times and also getting a fumble off him then blowing game at end with them recovering onside pick then nailing 50+ yard fg to beat us.. now i feel sick from that memory!

I already saw something that said the HOU vs. BUF game will remain at 1 PM in week 13. http://www.stampedeblue.com/2015/11/23/9785024/colts-vs-steelers-game-in-week-13-will-remain-on-sunday-night-football-nbc
RCOHEN13 Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 I already saw something that said the HOU vs. BUF game will remain at 1 PM in week 13. any other games come to mind??? Depending on records, maybe week 17 vs Jets??? Imagine if its Rex vs old squad this time at home, with playoff spot on the line???? now THAT would be intense! (hopefully we are in by then) but that would make front page news everywhere!
BillsFan130 Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Very unlikely. Haven't seen the schedule for that week but I am assuming there will be a bigger market/ better matchup flexed instead of the bills texans

Imagine if its Rex vs old squad this time at home, with playoff spot on the line???? now THAT would be intense! (hopefully we are in by then) but that would make front page news everywhere! The chiefs game has HUGE playoff implications even if we lose tonight, but i think there is 2 weeks notice to changes for the flex game which would rule that out. Personally, i;d rather play Chiefs at normal time. Arrowhead is a tough enough place to play, having them in prime time would make it even tougher especially with how well they have been playing. This week is huge game, but not a "must" win... Next week is a MUST win vs team that right behind us and the winner of the game wll hold the tie breaker for WC spot. Chiefs are really hot right now and may even have shot at that division if denver doesnt clean up their act. They were a 2 point conversion away from OT vs Bears with no Forte and no Jeffery and Bennett was knicked up.

Unless I'm getting it confused because baseball started doing it

Unless I'm getting it confused because baseball started doing it actually you are right.. I completely forgot about that, thanks for pointing it out!
May Day 10 Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Imo the Dallas game is the best shot. It's dallas. They could be playing for the division and the bills a wild card. Cowboys a draw, crazy stadium with legit playoff hopes and maybe winter backdrop... the game scheduled as of now is pit balt which looks like a complete dud. Couple of other games that week. Pats/jets and panthers/falcons could make the jump.
26CornerBlitz Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 @506sports Week 13 flexes: * CAR-NO moves to the late slot on Fox * CIN-CLE moves from CBS to Fox * IND-PIT stays on SNF https://nflcommunications.com/Pages/Week-13-Flex-Scheduling---Panthers-Saints-Moves-To-425-PM-ET-On-FOX.aspx
GG Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 On a tangent, the new broadcast rules are messing with the Thanksgiving day schedules. Second year in a row, no AFC teams represented in the games, so less interest from half the fan base.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 (edited) even if it wasn't too late for this week NE vs Denver is a lock Week 13 4PM games are all good match ups IND-PIT on SNF Week 14 - Oak Denver, Dallas GB @ 4 - Seattle Balto on SNF Week 15 - Buff at Wash a possibility over Cinci v SF on SNF Week 16 - Dallas @ Buff a possibility over Pitt v Balto on SNF Week 17 - Jan 3rd no night games On a tangent, the new broadcast rules are messing with the Thanksgiving day schedules. Second year in a row, no AFC teams represented in the games, so less interest from half the fan base. Philly @ Detroit PEEEEUUUUUUU! Carolina @ Dallas - should watch Chicago @ GB - Meh Edited November 25, 2015 by BillsFan-4-Ever
Formerly Allan in MD Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Pretty unlikely unless it's a game critical to both teams for a playoff spot.
JM57 Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 The only game I see as potentially more intriguing/important to the playoffs than a BUF/NYJ win and you're in game is MIN/GB playing for the NFC North at Lambeau. I'm hoping that's the case, I have no interest in attending a Sunday night game in January
Tuco Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Hello everybody. Yes there will be a night game week 17. They don't schedule one because they're almost certain to flex a different game anyway. And since week 17 only requires 1 week's advance notice there's no sense in inconveniencing more teams than necessary. Get it? Got it? Good.

Tell us straight up what we can expect come week 17.
Tuco Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Quit sugarcoating it, Tuco. Tell us straight up what we can expect come week 17. LOL. A flex to Sunday night on short notice.
TheFunPolice Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) I really want Bills/Jets on SNF week 17 What a party! And we 100% are going to win that game. Can you imagine... New Year's weekend...Nighttime... Snow... win and the 15 year drought is OVER! My god what a scene that would be! I'm getting chills just thinking of it! Edited November 26, 2015 by TheFunPolice
Nick the Greek Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Remember the last time the Bills got flexed.. Against the Pats***.. Oh boy.

I can tell you are not a season ticket holder who has to go sit in the elements at night in the Ralph. I am a season ticket holder, and praying we don't get flexed to a night game..........especially in January!!!! Edited November 27, 2015 by bigK14094
