Here is what I can narrow it down to for week 1 knowing the Bills' opponents.
RULE OUT
1) It will definitely not be at home against the Patriots. They have already been given a SNF game at home.
2) Knowing the opponent in NE should be a very high ratings team on SNF, it probably won't be at NE either.
3) Eagles will probably be home since Phillies are on the road - thus no home game vs PHI
4) Probably not at PIT - Pirates have a home game 9/8
5) Probably not DEN at home, because with the Rockies on the road, DEN may play at home.
GOOD POSSIBILITIES
1) Home vs WSH, BAL, MIA or CIN is a decent possibility since the Nationals, Orioles, and Reds have home games on Sunday, Sept. 8 and have stadiums close by. The Marlins also have a home game in Miami, even though it's not near Hard Rock Stadium, so baseball probably is less of a factor for the Dolphins' schedule.
2) At CLE or DAL - The Indians and Rangers are on the road
Although the NFL has 'double booked' a home game at the same time as that city's baseball game before, it really depends on the logistical infrastructure such as the Orioles and Ravens being a parking lot away, same with Eagles and Phillies.
COULD BE EITHER WAY
1) Playing the Jets in either location or the Giants in the Meadowlands are always possible
2) at TEN
Does anyone know of any stadium concert tours nationwide that can affect the week 1 schedule?

Traditionally mid-April. Schedule Day might as well be a holiday.

How are the Cowboys, of all possible NE home opponents, not being discussed as the SNF matchup team? Don't the Cowboys draw ratings?

Does the NFL go out of their way to avoid same-day same-city baseball games?
In Oakland, yes.
For stadiums in proximity to each other, I believe so. After all, didn't the Ravens not host the Thursday opener in 2013 after winning the Super Bowl because the Orioles didn't move their home game a parking lot away?
To your point, there may be less consideration for those stadiums further apart like Marlins Park-Hard Rock Stadium, Gillette-Fenway, Soldier-Wrigley, State Farm-Chase Field, etc. And actually, the Red Sox host the Yankees at Fenway the same night the Patriots are on SNF to open the season.

I propose the Packers v. the Browns, and NE v. the Bears. There, everyone is happy. Except me, I really hate watching NE. But would love to see the Bears pound them the first week.
Bears and NE are not scheduled to meet in 2019 regular season

Here are the possibilities (assuming the Bills don't play in the MNF doubleheader) and why. Who do you think it will be?

2) at TEN
Thoughts or any other stadium conflicts to think about like concerts?

Wouldn't the Cowboys be a good choice for SNF vs NE?
Also, is NBC now the official network of the NFC North?

It seems to work most of the time, except for the repeated commercials like:
Boomer Esiason talking about AZEK Decks
Home Depot
Jamie or Flo talking about Progressive
Save the Redwoods
GNC
Safeway
Great moments in sports
I miss the local Buffalo Commercials on the App like
Give Belknap a Ring
Mavis
Trust Transitowne
Northtown Auto
West Herr
Ted's Hot Dogs
Hear More
He's Got Your Back
Northwest Bank
Westermeier Martin Dental
Buffalo Roadhouse
Any Buffalo commercial with the same narrator who does the 'The Buffalo Bills Postgame Show is brought to you by....'
And I'm sure I'm missing a lot more
Please help remind me of the local Buffalo commercials. That's a bummer about the app.

Home Depot, Progressive, Lowes, O'Reilly, Greatest Moments in Sports, Macy's, GEICO, ... Enough Already!!!!!! Actually, it seems like the list is shorter that that.
I thought I was listening to a station from Buffalo. I remember the good old days when I would hear on the app...Len Co, Kenny Carpet, Give Belknap a Ring, Northtown Auto, Golden Nugget, Riverfront Auto Sales, Mavis, Buffalo Roadhouse Grill, Lockport Outdoor Store, Premier Group, Paddock Chevrolet Golf Dome, Ted's Hot Dogs and so many more. I miss these commercials. And many of them had one distinct voice for narrating voiceovers - sound familiar?
Anyway, I find it extremely frustrating to have the app wipe out an entire segment of Howard and Jeremy for a commercial break in the final 10 or so minutes of the show. Little did I realize this until it went from a very long commercial break (with many repeated ads) straight to The Instigators.
Also, does anyone have commercials literally cut off WGR talent before the segment is over? This has happened several times.
I called the station main switchboard recently to address this, and I also called the Entercom offices near Philadelphia. I spoke to one person at the Entercom Offices detailing the problems I am having listening to the app. Nothing new has changed after calling since a segment of Schopp and the Bulldog today was almost entirely wiped out with the Greatest Moments in Sports on constant repeat.
Anyone else experience any of the above?

My 2022-23 Schedule Prediction
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
At Baltimore week 1 is not likely because the Orioles have a home game just a parking lot away at the same time. From history the Ravens and Orioles try not to be at home the same time, such as the 2013 opener that couldn’t be accommodated because the Orioles night game couldn’t move to the day.
