They will be on prime time at least 5-6 times. In past years we've seen teams on primetime in successive weeks, plus there is an 11-day gap between these two games. We’ll see. I’m not holding my breath. Quote

In past years we've seen teams on primetime in successive weeks, plus there is an 11-day gap between these two games. Bills actually played in back-to-back prime time games just last season...Thanksgiving night versus the Saints and then back home the following Monday against the Cheats. The same scenario with a Thursday/Monday 11-day gap, with the big difference being that it is start of the season. 2 Quote
dma0034 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 I actually do believe the Pats opened on Thursday and had a MNF game the week during their last Dynasty Quote

Sunny, partly cloudy, with chance of rain and blizzards, highs of 30 to 90 degrees, and windy, calm winds from the N, S, E, W [note to self, edit this post Sept 15th so I look like a Nostradamus] Edited May 9, 2022 by Just Jack 5 Quote
RocCityRoller Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Memory may be failing, but I was pretty sure the Rams opening opponent was announced during the draft as a teaser and it was not Buffalo. I could have sworn it was a team from the AFC West, Chargers or Raiders stick in my mind. ESPN has had some dog poo match ups the last couple of years. They have to like Buffalo vs Tenn early. Concurrent MNF games is a bit of a head scratcher Quote

eball Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Love getting the Oilers early. Rich/The Ralph/The Cap/Highmark will be juiced and I don't think the game will be close. Quote

RobbRiddick Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 The attention and respect of getting primetime games is great, but I do sort of miss all the games being at 1pm. I have my routine all set up for that. 3 Quote

That's no big deal. The Bills are good enough to beat any team. Last season the Bills were inches away from beating the Titans with a healthy Henry. 1 Quote

It usually means early Tuesday morning for me...but that hasn't stopped me from NOT watching a Bills game from here the past decade. Go Bills ! 7 minutes ago, Mark Vader said: That's no big deal.

We need to have the clutch to close out all these close and tough games. Go Bills! Quote

Wonder if that has something to do with Minnesota being central time zone? No, it's likely due to Philly being a top 5 tv market and the station being an O&O (i.e. owned by Disney). I guess Joe & Troy will be doing that game. Quote

Chiefs to Host Chargers in Home Opener on Amazon Prime Video’s Thursday Night Football Aha! Thank you, week 2. I knew some game leak happened during the draft, but not the Rams! I had one team right! 🤣 I guess Rams vs Bills is still a potential for week 1. It would allow Von Miller to be in the building for the Rams Super Bowl ceremony before the game?! Quote

Logic Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 No one is gonna flip away from the Bills game to watch the Vikings game other than Eagles and Vikings fans. Well, unless the Bills are blowing them out, of course. Only downside is that I have to listen to Aikman and Buck 🙄 Quote
