I've seen complaints about opponents' playing the Bills after Thursday games and byes from some people who think the Bills got a raw deal on the schedule, but what about the ease in travel of the Bills schedule? Not including Toronto, the Bills have to be traveling the fewest miles of any NFL team this season. Using Rand McNally Road Atlas miles between cities, the Bills schedule appears to be jet-lag proof. In the 1st 6 weeks, they travel less than 1,200 miles round trip. Here are the mileages, one way & round trip:
NY Jets-393/786
Cleveland-191/382
Miami-1,378/2,756
New Orleans-1,244/2,488
Pittsburgh-217/434
Tampa Bay-1,235/2,470
Jacksonville-1,037/2,074
New England-463/926
Total 6,158/12,316
This year's team should be really fresh the 1st 6 weeks of the year with 4 home games and trips to NY & Cleveland.
