Why would they schedule a doubleheader with both games going on at the same time? The 2nd game should be a WC game.

The whole nation except for Philly & Minneapolis/St.Paul areas will be watching Josh and the Bills.

We’re going to have so many primetime games this year 

 

I know this won't happen but I would laugh so hard if they announce this and that it was our only primetime game lol

I wonder if Bills at Rams is the opening night game. Would the league have the Bills first two games of the year on primetime? I know the Bills will get a lot of exposure on primetime but they will also play the majority of their games on Sunday afternoon. If they are playing on primetime in week 2 then maybe week 1 is Sunday afternoon.

Highly doubt we get week 1 TNF, week 2 MNF.

They have done this before, I don’t have specific examples off the top of my head but remember noticing it 

In 2020 we had 3 games in 4 weeks be prime time- SF, Steelers, and then Pats two weeks later. That team was not more of a draw then this one.

I hear several people saying this and my question is...why?

 

The Bills are a SB contender with an exciting team.  They will be on prime time at least 5-6 times.  In past years we've seen teams on primetime in successive weeks, plus there is an 11-day gap between these two games.

The way this is going, next year I expect the NFL to have a special one-hour show on Thursday nights from mid-April to mid-May to release teaser games for the upcoming season. Thursday (and all its schedule leaks throughout the day) can’t come soon enough.

We’ll see.   I’m not holding my breath.

OMG, I never realized how tiny she is. I love it!!! I could pick her up and carry her around like a football. 

 

Especially if you are as big as O'Hara, she's pint-sized beside him.

Bills actually played in back-to-back prime time games just last season...Thanksgiving night versus the Saints and then back home the following Monday against the Cheats.  The same scenario with a Thursday/Monday 11-day gap, with the big difference being that it is start of the season.

Memory may be failing, but I was pretty sure the Rams opening opponent was announced during the draft as a teaser and it was not Buffalo. I could have sworn it was a team from the AFC West, Chargers or Raiders stick in my mind.

 

ESPN has had some dog poo match ups the last couple of years. They have to like Buffalo vs Tenn early.

 

Concurrent MNF games is a bit of a head scratcher

It was Week 2 - Chargers versus Chiefs on Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime.

The attention and respect of getting primetime games is great, but I do sort of miss all the games being at 1pm. I have my routine all set up for that.

 

1:00 starts are my favorite time as well.

Unfortunately, this means we get Derrick Henry when he's still fresh before the wear and tear of the season takes its toll on him.

That's no big deal. The Bills are good enough to beat any team.

 

Last season the Bills were inches away from beating the Titans with a healthy Henry.

Interesting choice of timing, but I means I should be able to watch. I'm ready for some payback against the Titans.

It usually means early Tuesday morning for me...but that hasn't stopped me from NOT watching a Bills game from here the past decade.  Go Bills !

inches away, 13 seconds away.....a catch away (NE)...all still ended in loss.  We need to have the clutch to close out all these close and tough games.  Go Bills!

Interesting the Bills are on ESPN instead of ABC right? Wonder if that has something to do with Minnesota being central time zone?

No, it's likely due to Philly being a top 5 tv market and the station being an O&O (i.e. owned by Disney). I guess Joe & Troy will be doing that game.

Aha! Thank you, week 2. I knew some game leak happened during the draft, but not the Rams!

 

I had one team right! 🤣

 

I guess Rams vs Bills is still a potential for week 1. It would allow Von Miller to be in the building for the Rams Super Bowl ceremony before the game?!

No one is gonna flip away from the Bills game to watch the Vikings game other than Eagles and Vikings fans. Well, unless the Bills are blowing them out, of course.

 

Only downside is that I have to listen to Aikman and Buck 🙄
