  1. One of the two games between Tampa and NO has to be a primetime game with Brady and Brees.
  2. RIP. A great coach.
  3. Bills at 49ers for a 4:25 start is probably a good bet.
  4. My prediction is 2 primetime games for the Bills. Chiefs at Bills on SNF. Mahomes and Allen. Chiefs O vs the Bills D. Old AFL rivalry. The second is Bills at Jets on MNF or TNF. Darnold and Allen. Rivalry game. If the Bills get more primetime games it will be because they got flexed into them as the season goes on.
  5. They will play without fans if they have to. The NFL brings in 15-16 billion a year and most of that is thru TV. The ratings which are extremely high in normal times would be that much higher if fans can't attend. With the Bills poised to have a strong season I would be disappointed if this season got cancelled.
  6. Doesn't the schedule get released this week? I just hope they get to play it.
  7. Most frustrating to me was 1990. The season itself was great but the Bills should have won it all that year. They were better than the Giants. Also 10 years earlier if the Bills could have beaten the Chargers in the divisional round as they were leading late in the game 14-13 but lost 20-14. Win that game and the AFC championship game would have been at home against the Raiders. Buffalo had already beaten Oakland 24-7 early in the season so they would have been favorite and had a good chance to play the Eagles in the 1980 Super Bowl.
  8. Speaking of rules I wonder if the NFL will adapt the XFL's kickoff rule.
  9. I prefer the NFL as well but I do watch CFB especially the SEC matchups as that is the best conference.
  10. If there is no CFB that leaves Saturday wide open. A triple header of Saturday football at 1:00, 4:30. and 8:00. That would be a great way to spend a Saturday and most fans wouldn't have to worry about getting up early for work the next day. They should replace TNF with a Saturday triple header. This way all the games are on the weekend except the MNF. The players won't complain about a short week as they don't like TNF for that reason.

  12. Or Steve Dangle (Maple Leafs fan). Watch any of his you tube videos. He goes off on the Leafs a lot especially when they aren't playing well.
  13. It's tough to win divisional games since they are usually hard fought, and the teams are very familiar with one another. With the Bills receiving all of this media "love", you know the Pats, Jets, and Fins are going to be extra motivated (especially the Pats) to beat the Bills. Even the Bills teams of the early 90's struggled to sweep the division.
  14. 6-0 in the division is a tall order. Even during the dynasty years the Pats usually had a divisional loss (at Miami mostly) most years.
  15. Old school - Joe Cribbs. He was the "Thurman Thomas" of the early 80's Bills. Super Bowl years - Bruce Smith. One of the best ever. Post Super Bowl years - Kyle Williams. Played on some bad teams but was proud to be a Bill who loves the area.
  16. With the Pats starting to decline they will go back to being the 4th banana in Boston behind the Sox, B's, Celtics.
  17. The only game here that I think will be really tough to win is at SF. The other three are all winnable. I would settle for 2-2 at minimum but 3-1 is realistic. Last year it seems the Hawks had to rely on Wilson more so than in years past. They don't have the legion of boom anymore. That game will be in Buffalo as well. Hopefully its a 1:00 start as that usually gives WC teams trouble.
  18. Two things with the offense 1) the OL needs to improve in pass protection and 2) Allen improving obviously. At the skill positions the Bills are loaded so if these two things happen then top 10 should be a given with a shot at top 5.
  19. Tougher schedule along with a tougher travel with multiple WC games but I have the Bills going 10-6.This is a good football team who will win the division.
  20. Bills go 5-0 here and were the only undefeated team in football after this win.
  21. Having the Bills legends help out the current team can only help. Obviously the team will listen to the coaches but these former players can provide valuable knowledge playing at the NFL level. Their opinions carry a lot more weight then yours or mine as they played this game and did it successfully. Kelly passing along his knowledge to Allen about reading and understanding defenses. Jim is a HOF QB so I think his opinion matters. Bruce one of the best ever helping AJ playing on the DL is a great benefit for him. Kyle was already helping at training camp last year and the players said he helped them tremendously.
  22. They won't be able to avoid it this year. Many of the "experts" have them as the favorite to win the division. My guess is when the schedule comes out they will get two primetime games as well as be the national game on Sunday afternoon quite often.
  23. The Chiefs being the champs and the Ravens are the two teams that the Bills will have to get by if they want to win the AFC. I am glad they get the Chiefs at home though. Win that game and that gives them the tiebreaker if it comes to that. Hopefully the Bills can win the division and get a home playoff game before worrying about the Chiefs/Ravens.
  24. https://forums.jetnation.com/topic/151849-jets-have-he-worst-roster-in-the-division-by-far/ From a Jets board. They are reviewing the rosters of the AFC East. Some posters are realistic others delusional. A poster named SAR should just be read for comedy relief. I don't know what football he watches but it isn't the NFL that is played on planet Earth.
  25. Its hard to say if the schedule will be tougher. On paper it does look tougher but when factor in injuries and teams that you think will be good end up having a down year. On the flip side teams that you think might be bad end playing well. The Bills IMHO have the best roster in the division. I also think their will be a season but a good chance without fans. Who knows at this point.
