Yep at first glance that looks rough. I remember seeing this week the side by side comparison of next years schedule depending whether we won or lost last night and finished first or second. It was a much easier schedule for second place. Big big difference.  That said, I’m glad as heck that we won our division and that can be an issue for next year. 
 

-8 of our 17 games will be vs 2023 playoff teams

Realistically I think going 7-1 at home (I mean proper home) again is well in our power. The road slate has some tricky opponents but we have matched up well with Baltimore in the past, we do with Miami as we have seen and I just feel like vs the Lions if it becomes Josh vs Jared then the Bills have the advantage (and I have always liked Goff more than the average man on the street, took pelters after their rookie years for saying he would be a better NFL QB than Wentz).

Brutal?

 

Idk looks not too bad. Obviously there are tough games but I'm happy as heck to see 9ers and KC at home.

 

And then away I'm not worried about anyone beside lions/ravens...

 

And we'll see if the lions survive this cycle with Ben Johnson still on staff

Initial feelings (looked at this a couple weeks ago to be honest).

 

1st place schedules are more unforgiving with the 17th game.  

 

Maybe another Bills @ Lions Thanksgiving game?

 

Home schedule looks manageable.  Shoot for 7-1 and can go 5-4 with that really difficult-looking away-slate to get to 12-5.

 

At least they avoid the bengals.

 

Primetime games:  @Ravens, @Dolphins, 49ers, Jets (Thurs), and something weird on MNF like @Houston

work with a Jags fan. their schedule is brutal

Browns, Packers

@buffalo, @miami, @detroit, @philidelphia

 

Games against Vikings, Raiders won't be easy.

 

Then they still have Titans, Texans x2.

Its always fun to think about travelling to a new away venue, particularly of teams the Bills don't often play. Seattle jumps out as the most interesting on this list by far for me when taking into account other attractions to check out before/after the game.  Curious to find out how loud that stadium actually is, followed by some hikes in the amazing national parks out there. I'm sold, pending dates!

Bills have the 3rd hardest schedule on paper.

 

I just did all of this work using AI.

 

Thanks for taking the time to do this! What about the Jets? Rodgers will be back next year.

I've been there for a game, it gets very loud. Impressive for an open air stadium.

Yikes, the Jets have a super easy schedule, as do the Lions and Texans. [Also, where is Cleveland?...sorry! :-) ]

Any idea of if any of the nine away games include anything international. 

 

No one knows yet. We'll have to wait until the schedule release in May, or a little before, unless there is a leak.

Two in a row for KC in OP after we send the Steelers packing.

 

Assuming they beat Miami!

Doesn't look as bas as it did this year...and this year it wasn't as brutal as we thought.  Our issue this year was we lost to the bad teams we should have spanked early on because we had an inept OC who needed more experience for being ready to head this offense and got out coached way too easily.

not too bad.  See projected W/L above.  13-4 for the defending SB Champ Bills.  Lots of those teams will be rebuilding/have more issues than the Bills (Pats, Rams, Seattle, Jets, etc).

Finally?!?!? 7 of the first 8 games the Bills played Seattle were in Seattle, from 1977 (when Seattle was created) to 2001.

But I kid! Glad you get to see the Bills in person!

I don't think they give us the Lions on Thanksgiving since w just had them then 2022. With the new rules, the NFL can put any team who goes to Detroit net season on Thanksgiving.

 

Also, how is this for the NFL Kickoff on Thursday Week 1, after we win the SB:
Kansas City at Buffalo

I've been to about 20 games there and I don't really think it's much if any louder than The Ralph.  Lot of hype in Seattle.

My guess for potential primetime games. Home - Dolphins, Jags, 49ers, Chiefs. Road - Dolphins, Texans, Ravens, Lions. Not all of these will be in primetime, but these are the mostly like primetime matchups for Buffalo.
