eball Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 The usual divisional opponents, plus the Cowboys, Giants, Bengals, Ravens, and Broncos. Not a bad draw in the bunch. The Ralph should be rocking (and packed) for every game next season, presuming the Bills continue their upward progression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokinandjokin Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Nice. We play the Eagles on the road this year right? Very travel-friendly road schedule too: Pittsburgh and Cleveland are ~3 hours; NYC, Philly, and D.C. are all possible by car, in the ~6-7 range. And Jax and Miami for the snowbirds...

eball Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share Posted January 5, 2007 Nice. We play the Eagles on the road this year right? That's right. We also play the Steelers, Browns, Jags, and Skins on the road. All in all, a fantastic schedule from a fan's perspective. We should get many HD games (even if CBS sticks with their 3 HD cameras and doesn't upgrade), as well as one or two prime-timers.

Ned Flanders Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 presuming the Bills continue their upward progression. Ding, Ding, Ding! We have a winner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't get one night game, the conspiracy theory is back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuile Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 I am not sure the times are decided yet. Do they have dates yet, even? We can also be "flexed in" if we are good enough, but I bet NBC will still take big markets over a good Bills team. If the Raiders get a SINGLE primetime game and the Bills don't, the conspiracy is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoondckCL Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Ding, Ding, Ding! We have a winner! More sports dollar will be contributed to the Bills next year rather than it being directed at the Sabres as it is this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuile Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Good point, BoodckCL, but a Sabres cup winner will still sell a lot of tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoondckCL Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Good point, BoodckCL, but a Sabres cup winner will still sell a lot of tickets. Thanks, but if the Bills are poised to make a run for the playoffs next year due to the way it looks now, the Bills attendance will increase while the Sabres will decrease mainly due to the fact that people in Buffalo have limited incomes, and also because the Bills are Buffalo. Just the way it goes in a small market city with two major pro franchises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurlyBurly51 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 More sports dollar will be contributed to the Bills next year rather than it being directed at the Sabres as it is this year. That will provide an interesting test of the market next year. Both teams being an attractive draw - can the market sustain sellouts both for the Bills and the Sabs in Oct, Nov and Dec?

Hammered a Lot Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 More sports dollar will be contributed to the Bills next year rather than it being directed at the Sabres as it is this year. It looks like it's the start of slump time for the Sabres. Thank goodness the Bandits are playing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ralph should be rocking (and packed) for every game next season, presuming the Bills continue their upward progression. Not necessarily. There are enough national fans of the Boys, Giants, and Broncos and regional fans of the Bengals and Ravens to sellout the games with rival fans.
