With a stretch of like 4 out of 5 games at home to end the season if we're not having a winning record we will be seeing(or not seeing for that matter on TV anyway) a lot of blackouts. It doesn't help that three of them games that are in a row are all against teams that shouldn't be very attractive sells to begin with.

It's usually the same thing every season with ticket sales. The September and October games through the first half of the year always sell out easily but the rest of them are up for grabs and depends on how the team is playing and what our record is. If we are having a bad season we should easily see 4 of them 5 games as blackouts. The Dolphins game would be the only one that might have a decent chance if we are still in the hunt and playing well.

What a jacked up schedule this year. A bunch of road games to start the season along with 4 out of 5 weeks on the road and then a ton of home games to end the season.

If this team can play well and get through that first half of road games we would be set up for being in good shape for a strong finish if we can take care of business against a bunch of bad teams from last year at home with 5 of our home games in the final 7 weeks of the year against them. If not then it will be a long half of season at Ralph Wilson Stadium.

If we are like 3-6 or so going into them last 7 weeks then the Bills season on TV could very well be over after week 9 except for the couple road games. Even with the increased sales this year the last 4 games at the very least will still have plenty of tickets left over and people will wait and see how we are playing before they commit to buying tickets to them games especially against non-attractive matchups.

My April prediction is 8 and 8. Minimum. BUF's been stockpiling decent players the past few years. IMO, if they don't suffer an onslaught of injuries, they will be in the hunt.

Blackouts no longer threaten one's ability to view a game as multiple online feeds are available. However, the feed I used required me to "donate" 7 dollars for the month.

At most they would have three blackouts and probably only two. Jets will likely sell out and the Toronto game is an automatic sellout
