machine gun kelly Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 PTR, I think Tuesday after the MNF game it gets announced as they need to give I think 10 days notice or something like that one. If you call Sal on the Extra Point Show, he usually knows all the ins and outs on that stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA OC Bills Fan Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 3 hours ago, Roy Hobbs said: Probably not until the week 17 games are completed Correct. My prediction is Sundat 4:25 so Bills and Chiefs are at the same time. If Bills lose this week then Bengals will be the same time too.

JerseyBills Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I'm waiting on the same thing. If it's any time but late night Sun or Mon night , my Jets buddy will drive out from Jersey for my 1st Bill's gm at OP this year Saw them in Jersey vs the Jests Unless we win and KC loses and it's a meaningless game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talley56 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 If it helps, I can’t imagine the Bills being the SNF game. That will most likely go to the Ravens/Bengals or Titans/Jaguars. So you can bet the Bills game will be 1 or 4. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't apply to week 18 as Tuesday will only be 5 days notice and even if it's Sunday night that's only 7 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billznut Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Chiefs at Raiders will almost assuredly be at 4:25 on that final sunday. They can’t play at 1 pm eastern, it would be too early in Vegas. So I’d bet on Bills being at 4:25 Sunday for week 18, same as Chiefs, even if we do lose to the Bengals Monday night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 It will probably be every team that has anything going playoff or seeding wise at 4. All the dead teams or games that effect nothing playoff wise at 1. We are going to play at 4, no chance our game is meaningless win or lose against Cincinnati, we are still going to need that Pats game and they certainly need it.

vanhalen26 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) I’ve never paid attention - do west coast games ever get the early slot? Makes sense that we would be paired with KC and Cincy time slots (Cincy only if Monday doesn’t go our way).

T&C Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 "In Week 18, two games will be played on Saturday (4:30 PM ET and 8:15 PM ET) with the remainder to be played on Sunday afternoon (1:00 PM ET and 4:25 PM ET) and one matchup to be played on Sunday night (8:20 PM ET). Specific dates, start times, and networks for Week 18 matchups will be determined and announced following the conclusion of Week 17."

boco357 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 They won't put Bills or Bengals on Saturday cause of short week. Hopefully after the 4pm games a lot will be known by then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da webster guy Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 If Goodell isnt compassionate enough to see that a Buffalo night game is more dangerous with the sidewalks and roads loaded with snow, and that this city just had a storm that killed 40 members of this community then the league is more money hungry than I thought. Keep the stupid game at 1pm Roger you pasty faced puppet. You've already put us on a million night games, we lost a home game to another storm, try to do something right for a change. It's easier to see pedestrians in daylight, especially when there are 8 foot snowbanks. Obviously a Denver win over KC puts us in a sweet spot and then the league wouldn't flex the game anyway. They'll come out with a statement that says "we've decided in light of the recent events in Buffalo that it's safer to keep the game at 1pm" 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When do we know when the Bills will play? From what I recall the week 18 schedule is usually announced late during the Sunday night game, maybe around 11:00 PM. Likely NBC wants to be able to promo the game they will be showing before signing off, but everything else is also announced with it. This is kind of a unique situation as don't recall in past years a Monday night game having such importance on seedings. Who wins Monday night could change the seeding a bit, but but not like any single one of those games will be a play in game. Worst I could see happening is they decide to schedule the Bills Chiefs, Bengals games all for 4:25 on Sunday, but more likely the Bills will be at 1:00 on Sunday IMO. Found a link form last year that confirms my recollection, was announced late during Sunday night game on Jan 2nd of week 17 schedule and a 2nd link stating will be announced this Sunday night. Unless the Bills Bengals game is such a game changer, would imagine this will hold true. https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-announces-week-18-saturday-games-sunday-nighter https://www.inquirer.com/eagles/nfl-week-18-schedule-predictions-odds-eagles-giants-playoff-picture-20221230.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Ross Tucker mentioned he expects either on the SNF halftime, or our MNF halftime shows. At worst Tuesday morning. The League wants a dramatic impact where there are as many playoff implications and they can move games around to get the most impact. They can’t move te Bills before Sunday so either 4 pm or SNF, it just depends what happens between tomorrow and MNF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djp14150 Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Sunday night… in AFC….. If baltimore wins…Baltimore at Cincinnati for division title. Game likely on nbc. Doesn’t matter what happens on Monday Tennessee at Jacksonville on Saturday. This moves to Sunday if Baltimore loses. Cincinati can clinch division in a win. Jets at Miami can be winner gets a WC spot if Miami and jets win if Miami loses then bills and Miami games happen at the same time. Then patriots have the edge so mia needs buffalo win New England at Buffalo if New England wins and jets then jets- mia winner gets WC if bills win. Pittsburgh gets in with a WW and none of Mia, ne, and jets get to 9-8 by pats WL and Jets LW In NFC…. Giants clinch with one W eagles clinch top seed with win if Washington loses and Seattle loses and Detroit and Green Bay win— then Detroit at green bay for a playoff8. spot Tampa-Carolina game for division control. Tampa clinches with win. If Carolina wins they control fate. if new Orleans beat eagles then they can get nfc south with W and Tampa loss in week18 Seattle could control Ken fate with a WW to close. They have the tiebreak on lions by h2h but Green Bay over Seattle based on conf record. So if tomorrow there are loses by Green Bay and Washington, and lions win, and Seattle wins thrn Seattle game could be Seattle gets WC with but not back in with a L. if eagles L , Vikings W, and Giants L then Giants- eagles could go to Saturday. Eagles need to win for top seed, giants need to W for playoff spot. see what happens Sunday afternoon—— Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chiefs play in Las Vegas, so that has to be a 4 o'clock start. Unless Chiefs lose at home against Denver combined with Bills winning in Cincinnati, number 1 seed will be in play. Barring that scenario, SNF is out because that game might be meaningless to the Bills but important for patriots, league doesn't want teams resting starters which the Bills could do should Chiefs lose at 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan130 Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 I would almost guarantee the Bills play at 4, unless KC loses today and Bills win Monday. Reason being is KC is in Vegas week 18 and NFL can’t move That game up cause the west coast time. And they won’t give KC a scheduling advantage by making the bills play at 1, because KC would know the result of the bills game and could choose to rest starters or not. So pretty much book 4 PM next Sunday unless somehow broncos pull off the big upset today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
