whatdrought Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I doubt the Denver game gets flexed to Primetime, though the Dolphins might get flexed if it’s got playoff implications. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Think Denver could well end up flexed. They normally have two Saturday games week 15 and when you look at the schedule that week..... it is slim pickings. The best Sunday game is Saints @ Chiefs in the 4.25 ET slot but I can't see Fox being willing to give that up to a Saturday slot and it is currently the only game in that window. After that maybe Titans @ Lions is a possibility? Dolphins @ Patriots? Falcons @ Buccs? Probably depends where Denver are at that point. If they are dead and buried and the Bills are 9-4 or better and have all but sealed the AFCE maybe it stays at 1pm Sunday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not pretty. 8 minutes ago, RobbRiddicksTDLeap said: That Pittsburgh game scares me. They genuinely do not scare me. I think they are good but I don't think they are scary. Besides if the Bills can go 2-1 at worst before then (and I think they should beat LAC and San Fran) then that game probably doesn't matter that much in truth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 What is the time frame for a decision on that Denver time? Is it a chance of going from Sunday to Saturday like that Pats game last year? Or just the time on the Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it's not easy, but it looks far less daunting now than it did a couple weeks ago, before Buffalo got the New England monkey off its back and then took down vaunted Seattle. I don't think there is a team left on the schedule that Buffalo absolutely cannot beat no matter what. We haven't been able to say that at this point in the season in decades.

If they are dead and buried and the Bills are 9-4 or better and have all but sealed the AFCE maybe it stays at 1pm Sunday. The pickings are less than slim. They don't just take 2 games out of the whole Sunday schedule. There are 5 games pre-selected before the season starts, and they will move a minimum of 2, but possibly 3 of those games to Saturday. The choices are- Lion @ Titans Jets @ Rams Texans @ Colts Panthers @ Packers Bills @ Broncos Also, FWIW, since the selected teams are switching days and not just time slots, the NFL says they will be informed a minimum of 4 weeks in advance.

After this week the Bills last 6 includes 4 teams that - currently - have losing records. Thats a far cry from their first 10 games where 7 teams - currently - have winning records. It doesn’t mean they can’t drop a game to the likes of the chargers or Broncos but the remaining schedule is easier than what we’ve faced so far.

Ah okay. Didn't realise it was between 5. I think Lions - Titans gets flipped on that basis. Then either us or Packers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atm, the Bills are one of the best 'watches' around. Mainly because of the 'Josh Allen Experience', but we are playing some very good football at times, with plenty of 'big' plays to keep neutral fans engaged. As an asie, Gunner, if I have to keep watching the Bills on Sky Sports every Sunday, I might have to ask for a refund on Gamepass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I have a feeling we really put it on the Patriots week 16. It feels like we finally got that monkey off our back. I think we will come out playing as loose as we ever have against the Pats in the last 20 years. And if we have the division or a playoffs spot already locked up by then that will really have us playing with confidence. If we can take this Cardinals game tomorrow and extend the record to 8-2 we will be playing with some serious momentum and house money. Hopefully the bye week doesn't derail all that momentum. 4 hours ago, whatdrought said: I doubt the Denver game gets flexed to Primetime, though the Dolphins might get flexed if it’s got playoff implications. That would be awesome if the Dolphins game gets flexed. But I would hope it would be for seeding for the Bills and win and you are in for the Dolphins. But usually they like to flex the final game to a do or die game for both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
