BillsFan619 Posted January 13 Posted January 13 (edited) Whenever it’s played, Monday or Tuesday, there has to be six days in between because of this NFL rule. Go Bills!

chongli Posted January 13 Posted January 13 (edited) This was suggested by a fan, but it seems highly unlikely: Edited January 13 by chongli Quote
zow2 Posted January 13 Posted January 13 (edited) Yeah, i don't see it as being that big a deal. Yes, the Divisional games involving Buf/Pit and TB/Phi would have to be on Sunday. All the games and times were TBD anyway. Edited January 13 by zow2 1 Quote

It will all work itself out; if a game or 2 is played at an unconventional time, who cares. Adds to the drama and fun of playoff football. There's no magic to how the league schedules this stuff anyway; it's all just trying to maximize viewers anyway. 2 Quote

Credit to @HappyDays for posting it first in the game postponed thread. prior to the postponed statement I had though given all 3 AFC go first they were planning on doing both AFC on Saturday, both nfc on Sunday. but now it’s bills/ Steelers game on Sunday as is the eagles/ bucs.. if bills win they host chiefs/ browns/ texans if Steelers win at baltimore in nfc if 2&3 win winner at at SF if one of 2&3 lose then at 2/3 team that wins DAL/DET if both lose then they host #6 ( rams) I think got planning 2/7 winner plays Sunday plays early Sunday slot, nfc plays latter Sunday slot. 1 Quote

I'm wondering if the reasons are primarily viewership, aka a night game vs. 4:30 on a weekday, or weather related. Bad storm, but nothing unusual in aftermath for Buffalo. Quote

The AFC almost certainly gets the late game Sunday since either KC-BUF or PIT-BAL would be a huge ratings draw. The only game that would be bigger would-be GB-DAL, but that would be on a Saturday.

Mango Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Assuming a win, I have to assume Buffalo is a slam dunk for SNF next weekend. Both their possible opponents are playing Saturday (today). Also, if KC wins, it’s THE match up next week even though I think Cleveland @ Buffalo will also be a brawl. Also a thought, to get to the SB there is a scenario where we have to run the AFCN. Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Baltimore. But also we lost to Cincinnati. Bonkers. 1 1 Quote
Bills!Win! Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Looks like we would be playing Sunday at 1pm due to San Fran playing Sunday at 4 because of the west coast Quote

And we could get the NFCN too in Detroit! 38 minutes ago, Bills!Win! said: Looks like we would be playing Sunday at 1pm due to San Fran playing Sunday at 4 because of the west coast That doesn't apply anymore. The Sunday games are 3 PM and 6:30 PM. Quote

GB at SEA started at 3 PM ET/12 noon PT in 2014 for the NFCCG Patriots-Broncos started at 3 PM ET/1 PM MT in 2015 for the AFCCG. Edited January 13 by chongli Quote
chongli Posted January 14 Posted January 14 (edited) There are 4 remaining combos for the AFC Divisional playoffs: HOU-BAL/ KC-BUF MIA-BAL / HOU-BUF HOU-KC / PIT-BAL MIA-HOU / PIT-BAL Since we know the PIT-BUF winner will play Sunday of divisional weekend, that guarantees that if Miami wins tonight, they would definitely play Saturday. Kansas City could go either way. m Houston has a 3 in 4 chance of playing Saturday. They would need Miami and Buffalo to win, in which case they'd play Sunday. Edited January 14 by chongli Quote

Sat 8 pm GB at SF Sun 3pm AFC Sun 630. NFC game RAMS/DET vs PHL/TB Mon Bills/Steelers winner game ( they could move it to late Sunday With 1-430-8 starts) Quote
