Even when we’ve caught the Pats off guard early in the season, still have found a way to lose those games (ex.McKelvin game). It’s almost more demoralizing to lose to the Pats when they aren’t at full strength early in the year. I want a home game against a team like the Redskins or Bengals. Let’s start off on a good note.

GunnerBill Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I think we will have a heavy slate of AFCE early this year. The past two it has come middle and late.

I had us pegged for second behind the Pats, but the Cowboys will be no pushover. I'd be happy with a split. Really though, I think I'd like to play at Tennessee or the NYG because neither is a raucous environment. Winning a road game week one would be big.

mrags Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I won’t care who we start against. 19-0 anyway. But u can tell you who it’ll be.

billsfan5121 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I’m all for the patriots for several reasons. 1: Their September record is worse than any other month, while I’m willing to bet ours is probably better than any other month (seems like we start hot a lot). 2: Regardless, even if the pats start slow, it’s still a good test. 3: If we are gonna lose to them, I’d rather it be in September than sitting at 8-5 with 2 Pats games remaining. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 which team would be the better of the two? cowgirls or eagles? I'll go with the eagles, wittens return doesn't scare me and well, I think this will be garretts last season and it wont be a good one. hey, that's just how I feel. eagles @ home and I'm thinking it will be a win out the gate and set the tone for the 2019 season! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCC Bills Fan Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 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?

Peace Frog Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 My ideal schedule would have us hosting Miami week 1 (I want to see Kiko get his 2 sizes too small jersey wearing butt kicked, the little punk) for the adrenaline pumping victory to start the season. Then, at New England, to hopefully catch the Paytoilets before they start rolling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Attendance-wise opening with an NFC team is best. Why? Because home openers always sell out and NFC opponents (unless it's the Giants or Cowboys) don't sell out later in the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Interesting in that yesterday they came out with the comment that the Bills are only expected to win 6 games, but looking at that schedule, unless some team comes out of the gate and really surprises, can see them either being the favorite or a slight underdog in 8 games. Another four they may be a 4 to 5 point dog which likely will win 1 or 2 of them admittedly they likely won't win all 8 where they are favorites either. The only games where I see them being a more prohibitive underdog are the two NE games, the Eagles, and maybe they Cowgirls. 9-7 doesn't seem that hard with this schedule, but there's always a couple of surprise teams every year, and who knows this year the surprise may be in Buffalo! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
