But first…….grab one of those giant carts and pick out the longest extension cord and one of those massage chairs. Set up right in front of the big screen, and invite all your friends. Don’t forget to bring a sign that says “Reserved” in case you need to hit the can or look for snacks. Losing your seat would be a rookie mistake.

For those without NFL Network or subscriptions, it apparently will stream (for free) directly from Buffalo's local channel website: https://www.wivb.com/sports/buffalo-bills/how-to-watch-the-buffalo-bills-preseason-opener-against-the-chicago-bears/

I'm like most of the losers here... very excited to watch any Bills game, even the first preseason game.

 

I once skipped out on a buddy's wedding because he had the audacity to schedule it during a Sunday in the fall... I had season's tickets!!!

 

 

No sir, that simply won't do.

 

I need to go a bit deeper than that.

 

 

This guy gets me 😂

I wonder if they will do this for all the preseason games?

That would be sweet. Fingers crossed.

I'll be watching on the NFL Network but curious if they'll be using the Bills home feed or the Bears away feed.

 

One of those options is not like the other

[Billzgobowlin]

Fly to Buffalo?

As long as I can watch the game, that's a much lesser concern for me.

 

Who would the announcers be? Catalano and Tasker?

DirecTV's our only viable provider up here and we have the lowest priced package so it's pretty cheap... I'm actually surprised we have NFL Network.

 

And of course super glad we can watch the Bills.

 

 

According to the DirecTV guide, it's supposed to be replayed tonight on NFL Network at 8:00 PM EST (5:00 PM PST), Tuesday (8/13) at 3:00 PM EST (Noon PST), & Friday (8/16) at 8:00 PM EST (5:00 PM PST). Of course, those are not always accurate but at least one of them will be.

 

FYI, they are also on NFL Network live next Saturday (8/17) at 7:00 PM EST (4:00 PM PST) against Pittsburgh. The last game will not be televised on NFL Network live but they replay every game so just check your listings around that time.

They used to have the home team feed for the first half and then the away team feed for the second half but that may have changed now to just the feed of the home team for the entire game. I'm not 💯 sure about that though. The Bills Preseason Broadcast Team is Andrew Catalon (Play-by-Play), Steve Tasker (Color Analyst), & Maddy Glab (Sideline Reporter).

 

For those of you in NY state, you can watch on your local CBS affiliate in the following towns:

I think I'd find the BJs to be distracting.  I'm sure I'd miss a few plays.
