I hear several people saying this and my question is...why?

 

The Bills are a SB contender with an exciting team.  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.

OMG, I never realized how tiny she is. I love it!!! I could pick her up and carry her around like a football. 

 

Especially if you are as big as O'Hara, she's pint-sized beside him.

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.

I actually do believe the Pats opened on Thursday and had a MNF game the week during their last Dynasty

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

If it was like last year 59, torrential rain, and 30 mph wind.

Love getting the Oilers early.  Rich/The Ralph/The Cap/Highmark will be juiced and I don't think the game will be close.

Love getting them AT HOME for a change

It was Week 2 - Chargers versus Chiefs on Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime.

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.

1:00 starts are my favorite time as well.

Unfortunately, this means we get Derrick Henry when he's still fresh before the wear and tear of the season takes its toll on him.

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.

Interesting choice of timing, but I means I should be able to watch. I'm ready for some payback against the Titans.

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 !

inches away, 13 seconds away.....a catch away (NE)...all still ended in loss.  We need to have the clutch to close out all these close and tough games.  Go Bills!

Interesting the Bills are on ESPN instead of ABC right? 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.

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?!

A head to head double header in prime time? This is a first.

 

That sucks with the games overlapping.

I dont get what the NFL is thinking here. Eating into their own ratings.

 

NFL should be pushing for as little overlap as possible across all of their scheduling.

[Logic]

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 🙄
