I have heard Sal C say a few times, that he has a "hunch" that the Bills will be playing a game somewhere over-seas next season.

 

Next year's 17 game schedule has the AFC teams with 8 home games and 9 road games. So if the over-seas game is a "road" game then that is good for the Bills. 8 home games, 8 on the road, and 1 neutral site game.

There's no way any part of the schedule is decided yet. They run tons of simulations through their algorithm after all the teams have made their specific schedule requests (lumping west coast games together, dates their stadium won't be available, etc.). They work on it right up until the schedule is released.

 

The Pegulas should get local organization to schedule snow sculpture contest on last two weeks of season so our stadium is unavailable.  😁

Read the thread where Sal goes into why Hawkins is wrong.


 

i understand the intricate details of how schedule algorithms work.

 

right now they know who teams home and road opponents  are

 

right now they are collecting scheduling conflicts such as MLB schedule where teams share stadiums or share the same lots. Some of these sre

 

1. Stadiums next to each other in seattle, KC, Baltimore, dallas.

2. stadiums that use same lots…Cincinnati. Pittsburgh.

3. events— houston has a Christmas shopping event a weekend between thanksgiving and mid December at facilities next to the stadium. Teams give their stadium for concerts, local and college football ( Florida-Georgia at jacksonville) or MLS teams share stadium ( Seattle).

 

before the even run the algorithm …they set up national games schedule fir Thursday, Sunday, Monday, and  certain games for 4:25.

 

these are don first because it makes scheduling easier.  If you look at historical national games scheduling there is a pattern…

 

1-6 divisional match ups from each division. 

divisional match up games within and between leagues

positional matchups

 

because of NY and LA shared stadiums…more games involving those teams will be put in Non Sunday spots.  Buffalo at LA game is likely to not be on Sunday afternoon. If it’s on Sunday afternoon it fir es the chargers on road on FOX if not on bye or national TV.

playoff and super bowl rematches. For example KC at TB next season. This is a certain national game next year likely on nbc.  Buffalo at KC is a certain national game next year. Since all 4 division winners are left in AFC playoffs, the AFC championship rematch will be on national TV.  TB-Rams play next year so it will be on as would a LA/TB vs GB rematch next year.

a super bowl rematch would be on national TV such as BUF vs GB/Rams

Muki Hawkins is an idiot who doesn't even know the difference between "your" and "you're" and yet somehow is a professional reporter. It doesn't surprise me that he confuses "17th game" with week 17. He's even more stupid for not realizing that the 17th game, if it even worked the way he thinks, would actually be week 18.

So you are saying that the season opener next year is GB in Buffalo for the rematch after we beat them in the SB this year?

I will make a prediction just for fun. If the Bills win the Super Bowl they will open the season against the Packers. Week 1 at home on primetime. Rodgers vs Allen. I am assuming Rodgers is staying with GB here.

 

Damn you beat me to it.

 

I kind of think GB is just going to choke again though.

Embarrassing for a sports journalist who covers the Bills to not know the basics of how this works.

Yeah, the players seem to love answering his questions in press conferences, so I'll give him that, but this is a bad look for sure. Basic stuff.

If true, would be a bummer as Bills would have games against 5 of the remaining 7 (excluding Buffalo) playoff teams and potentially all 4 of the teams in championship games

 

- Chiefs

- Titans

- Bengals

- Packers

- Rams

The teams we face are set by the end of the regular season when all of the divisional rankings are finalized. We already know who the opponents are, just not the order of the games.

 

It's not a mystery how the schedule works. It's a rotating schedule with a few of the games determined by divisional standings. The 17th game is a rotating game based on divisional standings as well.

They do. That is the schedule.

This is all true and has been known for a couple weeks already. Also discussed and threads on the subject.
