It was also the most watched TV program, sports or otherwise, since the Super Bowl in February. That's pretty incredible. Makes me curious as to why THIS specific game had such huge interest. Maybe a lot of closet Bills fans decided to check in & see if we were legit? Is the bandwagon about to get going again? Time will tell! You dont realize how many Bills fans there actually are. Also I know a lot of my friends were so excited to watch the Bills b/c they know what me as a fan has been through so you get friends of Bills fans rooting against the Boys also.
MAJBobby Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Now I also think that without a new Stadium. The NFL will not be giving Bills a lot of Primetime. With the Stadium issue being held over the Pegulas and Bills heads. also I think the perception of the Bills Fan Antics hurts them and their ability to secure Primetime Games as wel

Just FYI Bills antics are no worse than fans at most stadiums so your ***** logic there didnt work. Edited November 30, 2019 by Boca BIlls

Emmitt Smith cheering House Moneys miss. Looked good on him that the Girls missed 2 FG's later Karma He visited the team before game in case you did not know. I think he gave acting lessons on how do milk an injury when team needed a break. 1

So what are you saying, people love public executions....But this time the condemned turned the tables on the executioner? Most people tuned in right before game ended. From 7pm and beyond. That is awesome from Bills standpoint. "QUICK! David's kicking Goliath's azzz! Tune in... Watch David pummel Goliath!" Edited November 30, 2019 by ExiledInIllinois

The Bills controlled the game and dictated what they wanted to do. They wanted it more. Good post. The funny thing is, is that for a game that many picked the Bills to lose, it was one of the more dominating Bills wins this year. 1
Nick the Greek Posted December 1, 2019 Posted December 1, 2019 I remember a couple years back the Bills v Seahawks was on MNF. it drew horrible ratings. Anyone remember that one? a good prime time games takes more than just the Bills

The Bills of a few years back were not that. 1

Bills fans are fans for life and when they move, they are the ones that buy the Season Ticket and merch and filll sports bars that sell Budweiser. The NFL loves that. Guilty. Mmmm. Budweiser.
billsfan89 Posted December 2, 2019 Posted December 2, 2019 It was a hugely important game for both teams. I can't think of any other reason for it other than that.
buffaloboyinATL Posted December 4, 2019 Posted December 4, 2019 I just saw a story on Total Access Live talking about the high rating for our game and gave 100% of the credit to the Cowboys. They talked about the Jerry Jones/Jason Garrett drama being the reason everyone tuned in. I am convinced the Bills drew everyone’s attention, especially once we started winning.
