Royale with Cheese Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I'm starting to get mine now. I watched a couple of the hype videos, watched the GMFB and other sports shows....I'm feeling it now. For the regular season games that aren't "big games"...I don't get it until like an hour before the game. Big games like this, playoff games or prime time games....I start getting getting them the morning of. This one, probably because of the hype...2 days before. I'm doing the bare minimum at work today. Just enough not to get noticed that I'm doing nothing. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjag Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I've been amped up all week. I go back and forth thinking they'll crush them to they'll get crushed. Helluva way to start the season. In the end, I reason if the new vaunted pass rush can cover the rooks in the secondary, they'll be alright. But this has KC-BUF big-game type vibes with me.. I am looking forward to a stress-free Sunday of watching football afterwards. So many good games this week. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 (edited) I've had it all week. Always do the 1st game in the season. I think all the hype has made it worse this year but I'm still trying to keep my cool. Edited September 6, 2022 by The Wiz 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 There’s no anxiety because I can’t control the outcome so if we lose it has nothing to do with me. Excitement though has set in. Been waiting months for this and to finally forget the last 13 seconds in Kansas City. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steptide Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 About 15 mins before kickoff. I actually anticipated it this year being on the Thursday night opener, so I took Friday off. If we win, I won't be able to sleep from excitement, if we lose, I won't be able to sleep from dissapontment. A few of those primetime games on Monday night last season, I didn't take off the next day, and I paid for it 😂 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the start of regular season I’m like a kid before Christmas, I can hardly sleep (fortunately I’m on the west coast). I’m like that every year for the start of the season. But for big games, I usually get excited a couple days before and playoffs, I’m excited the whole week before. Thursday can’t get here soon enough!

stevewin Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 The combination of anticipatiation for both the opening game and the stadium renderings has me all freaked out 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruffalo Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Unless somebody forgot to tell me I don't think I'm playing. I get very little anxiety. I get excited for the games, but not anxious. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Good topic. To some degree it depends on the opponent. Usually begins Wednesday when I watch the preview of the game on YouTube. Oddly I get less nervous when traveling to home or away game in person than I do when I watch at home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all the hype has made it worse this year but I'm still trying to keep my cool. Yeah, the hype has been off the charts, but I’m confident nobody associated with the team buys into any of it. They know better. To me it’s simple; they’ll either live up to it or not. Noting to get anxious about really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 (edited) No anxiety, just excited the Bills are back on and the games are about to count. Just hoping we don't come out flat like we did last year against Pittsburgh in the opener. Edited September 6, 2022 by H2o 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 This thread is why I’m on this board. It makes me feel less crazy for being anxious about the game. I already have my “at least it was a NFC team” excuse ready to go 2 1 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I know its the first game of the year so this game always gets hyped every year. I don't know if I would call an interconference matchup a big game. To me the Pats, Dolphins and Jets games are the biggest games of the year for the obvious reason. Anyway psyched for Thursday night. Hopefully they start off 1-0 unlike last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
