UPDATE TO THE MAP: Lenawee County in Michigan will be getting Cleveland at Buffalo now. It is in the Toledo DMA

Interesting. I am not familiar with this owner? Who was it?

Like father, like son. Ralph Wilson had to bail out Al Davis back in the day to save the franchise.

https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2014/11/source_nfl_says_carrier_dome_syracuse_wont_host_buffalo_bills_game_technology_issue.html 'Source: NFL says Carrier Dome won't host Buffalo Bills game; technology reportedly an issue The National Football League has ruled out the idea of moving Sunday's game between the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets to the Carrier Dome, according to a source who spoke Thursday night with a senior league official. [...] ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the league wants the game to be played in an NFL stadium with wiring and technology that meet NFL standards. "That's why a place like the Carrier Dome in Syracuse wouldn't work, despite the fact that it's so close to Buffalo," Schefter reported."

------------- And on a separate, but related note:

Everyone would throw a fit since there would be no noon game Thanksgiving, and the NFL and CBS would lose a ton of money.

Agreed. In my biased opinion, I feel Cleveland-Buffalo or Jets-New England would be better games, but I suppose many want to see how Philly responds after a loss and if the Colts will continue playing inspired football under Saturday.

More bad news: the Justin Jefferson catch won NFL Moment of the Week. Tired of this being shown all the time everywhere. Like the Hail Murray or Derrick Henry stiff arm.

Are you in Florida? They are getting Jets-NE probably because of all the snowbirds from the northeast. My area in NV doesn't get it either.

😂

Plus, if NY is still playing well, there is an outside chance NY at Buffalo gets flexed to SNF that week, although the scheduled KC-Denver would be a huge draw too.

The Bills tried to fly out of Cleveland in 2007: https://www.cleveland19.com/story/7506034/adding-insult-to-injury-buffalo-bills-charter-jet-stuck-at-hopkins/ "Adding Insult to Injury: Buffalo Bills Charter Jet Stuck at Hopkins Cleveland, OH - The Buffalo Bills can't catch a break. The team's charter jet got stuck Monday morning on a taxi-way while waiting to depart at Hopkins International Airport. The team will now ride a charter bus back to Buffalo."

They failed to give you credit!

[This was posted in the Browns thread by Yolo, but maybe it deserves its own topic? This can be merged if necessary.] I thought we were done with this color combination after the Jets game? Also, some speculation about the following Thanksgiving game at Detroit:

Excellent point! Let's add the Justin Jefferson miraculous 4th down catch against Cam Lewis.

Maps released just now.

Re the Indy situation, I heard on SiriusXM NFL Radio last week that a possible reason Josh "Daniels" may have reneged is that Belichick warned him off that job after he accepted. Belichick spent some of his early years a young assistant for Jim Irsay's Baltimore Colts, and Bill knew too many negative things about the family for it to be a good environment for Josh. Frank Reich learned the hard way.

Waiting for someone more clever than I to make the obvious joke/comment.

We did win the AFL Championship twice in the 60's. Don't forget: 2019 blown 16 point lead to Houston in the WC 1980 last minute Fouts to Ron Smith 50-yd TD pass to give San Diego the win in the divisionals 1989 dropped Ronnie Harmon pass from Kelly at Cleveland in the divisionals to allow them win the game Also, while not choking away a game, but heartbreaking nonetheless: 2004 season-finale loss at home to Pittsburgh against their second and third stringers to not let us get a playoff spot

Maybe the game gets moved to Detroit. A sort of plus for us since we play there four days later on Thanksgiving. Less travel.

For a moment I had to ask myself is today April 1?

Yep, no problem. Sorry I didn't post it yesterday. https://www.eaglesmessageboard.com/topic/7670-gdt-washington-commanders-philadelphia-eagles-11-14-22-815-pm-est/

After the Bills heartbreaking loss to Arizona in the Hail Murray in 2020, they went on a 6-game winning streak to end the season. It's going to happen again this year. It starts next week vs. Cleveland.
