LabattBlue Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I don’t get it. The Saints were already on the Bills schedule for 2021. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills of Boston Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Yeah but how many teams will say “hey we’re playing THE BILLS, it’ll be a primetime game?!” time, they are a changin Just now, Back the Blue said: I don’t get it. The Saints were already on the Bills schedule for 2021. Agreed. I actually thought it was going to be v NFC East division winner tbh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seoulofstone Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) I figured they would make the extra game against someone who wasn't already on the schedule. It would be a.good game though. Typical if true This means the Patriots get 2 lousy teams each year now that they stink. Edited January 1, 2021 by Seoulofstone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Boy Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 So, 17 th game of season or we play them twice, as we are already playing the NFC south next year? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkeerie Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 The way I read that link is the full crossover is with the AFC South. The 17th game crossover is AFCE/NFCE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Ok, I know it gets confusing so let’s make it simple if the 17th game happens (they said at the last meeting they approved all of the rules and set up for the 17th game, but has to be ratified or whatever at the next meeting, which I’m sure will happen). We play: AFCE (of course) AFCS AFCN (#1 - Steelers) AFCW (#1 - Chiefs) NFCS and the way reported either home or away NFCE #1 (probably WFT or Dallas) What surprises me is going every other in terms of home/away for AFC/NFC. What made sense is neutral games to advance the popularity of the game, but they may be conservative with what happens with the health issues (pandemic). As far a night games, it’s almost assured we get several. We are the #2 passing team in the league and the networks wants to show off high offensive games. It makes sense of likely opponents we would get primetime game with take you’re pick, the Bucs, Saints (depending if Brees comes back), Chiefs for sure, Fins, and maybe the Titans. Not saying all, just likely choices as these are top teams and would draw good ratings. As I’ve said before, the world is right for me with a Sunday 1pm game, but I know you guys love this stuff.

Estro Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 That gives me reason to root for a Redskin or Giants win this weekend.....Cowboys aren't much but feel like the Skins and Giants are even weaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 How dare you call them the Red.....? Just kidding Estro. I’m having a hard time with this name change too, not because sensitivity wise it’s the right thing, but just pick a damn name already. That offense is weak, but their defense is awesome. If Alex Smith is back and they draft weapons, they could be good. The Giants will be a mess for awhile, and the Cowgirls are a hot mess. Who knows if Dak can even make it back? I was sickened by his injury. I know the Alex Smith and Theisman injuries were horrific, but that foot and ankle going backwards is a possible career ender. It really doesn’t matter as all of those teams suck. That is great for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) I hope the Cowboys win the division and we play them at Dallas again on Thanksgiving. I take that back.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) Damm I was kind of hoping for Green Bay and Rodgers matchup. Guess we'll just have to settle for it in this years Super Bowl. Would have been nice to as if the schedule works out that they play again the following year, the NFL will sometimes try and make the Thursday night season opener for the SB champs into a rematch. Guess that won't happen either unless Washington or Dallas get really hot! Will say overall next year is the Bills best window as playing a fairly easier schedule. Brees and Big Ben may be retiring, one of these years Brady will finally show his age, Indy who knows who their QB will be, Rivers or maybe Wentz. Now throw in the NFC east game makes it easier. Will still have KC and Tenn to contend with, both on the road I thought, but overall not too difficult and much less travel, furthest trip to KC?
