jethro_tull Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 The Bills are playing this Sunday. All Sunday game start times are TBD. First off the way the NFL holds everyone's schedule's hostage (game attendees, viewers and press) for TV ratings is getting very old. The Bills are prime time TV and have a good chance of the Sunday night spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the KC game is Saturday, I would guess the Bills game will be Sunday at 1:00 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills are prime time TV and have a good chance of the Sunday night spot. You want teams playing when they still have a chance to make the playoffs. Obviously they are not going to play a West coast game at 10 am but if you can set it up that the games are meaningful then the NFL should do it. That said it is a pain when talking about travel and plane flights. Edited January 2, 2023 by Ethan in Cleveland 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I think the way it’s worked lately is all the teams with a shot at movement play at 4. I can’t see anyway the Bills are at 1 but Sal just talked himself in circles thinking it will be at 1. I think I might be dumber for having listened to what he just said, at point he was talking about when it will be if the chiefs lose lol I’m guessing at that point it’s a little too late to move the game time bud…I say it has to be 4 the game will have meaning for both teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheektowaga Chad Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 NFL would never do it but just schedule every game for the same time at like 230 or 3pm Obviously sponsors and TV partners may be upset but if the actual goal is to provide no advantage to teams that's how you do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep dreaming, though many with tickets to game would call that more a nightmare to start. There's many better games than Bills Pats for Sunday night as pointed out. If Bills win tonight, then very likely Bengals Ravens will be Sunday night game for division title. If they lose, then more likely Lions-Packers or one of the NFC east games.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Every year the eliminated and stuck teams play at 1. No matter what the Bills probably won’t be stuck and the Pats absolutely will need it no matter what. We are going to play at 4 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills are prime time TV and have a good chance of the Sunday night spot. Buffalo wins they have a chance but than that makes Baltimore vs Cincy for the division. I think its Ravens v Bengals or Lions vs Pakers are the games. Buffalo playing for the 1 seed vs Patriots wildcard isnt as big as either of those games. Most likely stand alone 4pm game with Nance and Romo. Edited January 2, 2023 by Mat68 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 It's win and in for the Patsies. Only issue is we typically drub them and they look uncompetitive unless there is a 70 mph wind storm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Bills win, then SNF probably will be CIN-BAL. If we lose, SNF probably will be GB-DET. For SNF, they want ratings but also a game with good playoff implications. A Bills team that has already clinched the #1 seed (if we win tonight and KC loses Saturday) or is locked in at #3 (if we lose tonight and KC and CIN wins next week) is of no interest to the NFL with just NE (without Tom Brady) playing for a WC spot. In that case, they would rather have GB, which is ratings gold. Could even be Rodgers's farewell.

They never had a chance for Saturday (or SNF, obviously). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at it like gotta hit 2 yrs in a row on the way to 20 straight years. Can't do what the Pats did to Bills without this start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I would have said no to SNF but KC/LVR is flexed to SAT. It will come down to if Bills win tonite. A Bills victory and SNF it will be : win and in for Pats ( Boston TV market) vs #1 seed for Bills. If CIN wins tonite Bills probably play at 4 or maybe even 1 pm if that’s the time assigned to Jets/ MIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
