This is gosh-darn football and we ain't stoppin' anything. Kickoff is Thursday, Sept 10th....like it, or gtfo!"......ok. Well, let's see if it works.

Seeing this, it makes sense now. If the season is delayed, games scheduled for the early weeks in the season could be added on following the Jan. 3 Week 17 date.

Roger might be many things, but dumb and unaware of the social climate he is not. So obviously, he has all sorts of cascading contingencies and plans to develop "in case" of certain factors. I was merely playing on all of the "rumors" and "leaks" that the teams would start the season with 4 straight non-conference games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would make sense if the league started tomorrow. This is still 130 days away though, with contingency plans. That said, we are having this season with fans in attendance.

iinii Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 14 hours ago, Justin C said: Why does every thread get filled with "too bad the season will be cancelled/possibly no fans" comments? Can we please just talk about the schedule and nothing else? I like the balance of it. No more than two back to back home or away games. My boss at work is a 49ers fan and a bunch of us are trying to tell him that a trip there for a 49ers game sounds like great team building. But you bring up going to Santa Clara. Hope your boss has some big bucks for that one, if you can even get tickets. 2 hours ago, BigBuff423 said: I'll give Goodell props, he's got a giant set of brass ones on him to basically tell the world, "Screw you and your social distancing.

TroutDog Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 I haven’t read the entire thread but one thing I love is our Fish games are set the way they always used to be: we play them early in the heat and they have to come to us and play in the cold. I always loved that. Overall, the schedule is laid out really well given our opponents and the amount of West Coast travel. 2 minutes ago, That's No Moon said: I'm at 7-9. Maybe 8-8. Wow, that’s surprising...I have more optimism as I thing Josh has another year under his belt, Diggs coming aboard and our stellar D (among other reasons). I believe we’ll match last years record and win the AFCE and a playoff game (or more). We’re going deep into the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking about that as well and it’s possible that both teams could be 5-0 , I’m hoping Bills are no worse then 4-1 or else it would be disappointing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 It's exciting that they scored so many primetime games. At the same time, they're in the spotlight now and I really like when they fly under the radar.

Punching Bag Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 22 hours ago, sullim4 said: That Raiders game is in the 4:25 CBS national window... so it's probably going to get broad exposure. Edit: Nope. It's going against KC/NE. Hopefully by then NE will have many loses and the ball lickers in NFL broadcasting will realize the emperor has no clothes and every one sees them on their knees. Another interesting note: NFL beefs up 2020 schedule by adding two Saturday triple-headers with flex game options https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-beefs-up-2020-schedule-by-adding-two-saturday-triple-headers-with-flex-game-options/ Quote Although we don't know which teams will be playing in the Saturday games, we do know that the NFL will be picking two or three games from the following five options for Week 15 (Saturday, Dec. 19): Bills at Broncos ?wings Panthers at Packers ?

Everybody likes the story of young luke skywalker flying his little x-wing fighter to destroy the death star. And thats fun and all. But he still had to become a jedi. What is exciting now is to watch luke skywalker develop into a power jedi. So lets watch the bills develop into a dominate NFL team and win a super bowl that way. Its still the same team, but they are growing up. Enjoy it! Edited May 8, 2020 by wagon127 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
