Billsfansinceday1 Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 8:00 tonight on NFL Network per their schedule.
Jamie Nails Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 at least our home opener isn't against the pats. Would love someone super beatable like the skins

So the networks have the ability to protect games from primetime. Additionally teams are limited to the number of primetime games allowed. Given the opponents CLE has this year I think we unfortunately down on the list which is dumb considering how good of a game it will probably be. 1

This is the 3rd year in a row that we play New England on the road week 16.

I understand the need to try to make the division matter at the end of the season but it feels so blah

There you'll notice the same teams have the same road trips, playing the same teams year after year. Obviously more variability with the NFL, but still
YoloinOhio Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Gase is really eyeing (ahem) that home opener vs the Bills coming right off the season ending shellacking that got him fired vs the same team 1 3 1

In the last 15 years or so, the Bills best chance ( due to futility on the field) at a prime time game was the Thursday night game. The league did away with the mandatory Thursday appearance to please the networks. Their best chance now relies on surprise success and a flex situation. In the current climate, with networks ponying up huge $$ and demanding ratings draws over duds, the Bills are further on the back burner than ever. Going forward it will be playoff teams , then the old standbys of DAL, CHI, NYG, and now probably both LA teams. TV markets and draws rule prime time football.

Andrew Son Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Just now, FeelingOnYouboty said: MET LIFE TWO WEEKS IN A ROW LMAO! Ha, that would be interesting. No home opener until week 3?
Process Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 What a dream start to the season. On the road vs two sh*t teams. Could easily come out of week 2 2-0 with two road games out of the way. 2
elijah Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Normally I don’t get too worked up about the schedule ever, but hopefully back-to-back road game nonsense isn’t all that accurate. That’s a rough first two weeks with no home game.

HereComesTheReignAgain Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 I live a few miles from Metlife. I would HATE it if the first two games were at Jets and at Giants. I am really looking forward to going to the Bills games at Metlife and would much prefer the games to be spread out with one mid/late season. 1
