Limeaid 3,908 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Arizona is a weird choice I would think Las Vegas to be a better one being closer. Arizona is in the NFC West so they would be practicing and playing in a division opponent facility. They could even both be in playoffs if (just as an example) Tainted T*m was hit by semi.

BuffaloBillies 2,212 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Many positives: 1. Bills recently played there... familiarity helps 2. Extra day to get healthy (Josh ankle mostly) 3. Glad SF won today. Bills take them more seriously and SF less "due" for a win Go Bills 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BillsfaninSB 737 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Is this a big advantage, relative to playing in CA, or not? Do the 49ers get galvanized because of this decision or is it too disruptive? On paper I believe this helps the Bills especially playing there once already. Both teams now have to travel.

Did today’s scheduling rules for out-of-conference opponents not exist then? Yes, they were there in both 2008 and 2012. The same thing happened to the Cardinals where they played the Patriots in Gilette in 2008 and 2012. I believe the current scheduling format started in the early 2000s so something along the way must have tweaked the rotation a bit.
