Steptide Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 I understand that our record on mnf since the 07 Dallas Monday night game is bad. Actually we don't even have a win on mnf since 07. However, every Monday night game we've been on has been great (from an entertainment standpoint). Set your bills Fandom aside for a minute and think of our Monday night games starting with Dallas. Dallas 07 Cleveland 08 Patriots 09 Cleveland 13 Patriots 15 Seahawks 16 I may have forgotten one, but all the ones I listed were great games (again from an entertainment standpoint). All had close scores and some came down to the final minute or second. Imo the NFL should absolutely give the bills at least one mnf game a year. 1 1
26CornerBlitz Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 Because they have been such a perennial power that commands the primetime spotlight.
Buffalo716 Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 Because when we have prime time games fans die...

Straight Hucklebuck Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 Because nobody wants to see the Bills on National TV. We stink and are completely irrelevant in the league. 2
RiotAct Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 seeing as we’re like 2-450 in primetime games since the drought started... no thanks. 1

Just a correction, the Bills don't have a win on MNF since 1999 not 2007.
Augie Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 Maybe because we haven’t been good in decades and we have a small market and nobody will tune in? That’s just an guess...

We stink and are completely irrelevant in the league. Because Cincinnati is just such a powerhouse? Every year their are mnf games with bad teams. Miami is on next Monday and Tampa Bay after that. I get that theirs no way to know who will be good when the schedule comes out, but the bills have had some great Monday night games from a football fan perspective 1

BillsFan130 Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 Small market, bad team, and not exciting to watch. Here are a few examples. Would you want to watch a team like Tampa Bay or a team like Jacksonville on Monday night?
Another Fan Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 Pretty sure the Browns in 13 was a Thursday night game. Be honest were just not interesting to the average fan. Every time I go into the store Lids Bills merchandise is never represented

WhoTom Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 The Bills suck in prime time - they're the new "Not Ready for Prime Time Players."

Ol Dirty B Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 Isn't 08 the check down game vs the Browns? I was there, it was close, but I don't recall it being exciting. I think everyone knows why they aren't on MNF and it's completely justified.
