Our Complete schedule

[OpIv37]

No it is not,

Even if the Bills make the playoffs this year, that is no guarantee you will see any more Bills games in prime time next year.

Given our record in prime time, how poorly this team has performed lately, and how hard it is for us to sell out home prime time games, why would we WANT more prime time games?

We've sucked for the last 14 years or so. More prime time games would have meant nothing except more people witnessing our suckage.

And personally, I don't even like prime time games. They end so late on the east coast, and if we win, I'm too pumped to sleep, and if we lose, I'm too pissed to sleep. Then I'm tired as hell at work the next day. **** that.

On Twitter there's a lot of complaining about the schedule. You're not the only one. And my response was the same on Twitter as it is here.

All the Bills have to do to get a better schedule next year is JUST WIN. It's that simple.

Such a perfect example of someone posturing on the internet to be such a no-nonsense tell it like it is internet guy.

It would be less sad if you weren't completely wrong.

The Dolphins, Jets, Texans, Redskins, Cowboys, Giants and Falcons all have MNF games.

Most of those teams were either comparable or worse than the Bills last year.

Good try though, tough blue collar internet guy.

If I remember correctly we usually play pretty well in prime time, we just find a way to blow it in the end. They've mostly been very entertaining.

6-10 is going to be a reach.

Notice one thing those teams all have in common: They're all from MUCH larger cities than Buffalo. Much bigger TV markets.

Jacksonville, Cleveland, Cincy and Minnesota have performed similarly to us lately as well- where are their prime time games?

One big difference…

Major market, major market, major market, major market, major market, major market, and major market.

Opening lines are out. Bills are 6.5 point underdogs against Chicago in the 1st game.

Friday night is for High School football as it should be.

You will NEVER see an NFL game on Friday.

You won't because it's illegal.

Literally, as in it's specifically barred by law.

WHAT!!!! The F**K ..Bills play vs Patriots week 17 AGAIN . Bills did played last year.. Oh Come on.. and Plus No Monday Night

[feldspar]

1st 8 games, 1 2013 playoff team, then the bye...

That's what they said at nfl.com, but it's not true. The Bills play the Chargers in week 3, and the Patriots in week 6...so that's two teams that made the playoffs.

No no I get that. What I'm responding to is the "just win" assertion. That is just plain false.

[better days]

6-10 is going to be a reach.

Why do you think the Bills will be worse this year than last year?

6-10 was not a reach last year, the Bills should have won a few more than that.

Change the drop down to 2014

• 1 Sep 7 1:00PMEDT ) AT Bears - LOSS (can't imagine winning on the road)
• 2 Sep 14 1:00PMEDT * Dolphins - Win
• 3 Sep 21 1:00PMEDT * Chargers - Win
• 4 Sep 28 1:00PMEDT * AT Texans - Loss (texans just need a qB who doesn't suck. they get that guy in the draft)
• 5 Oct 5 1:00PMEDT ) AT Lions - Loss (classic game you always chalk up as a win, but it never works that way)
• 6 Oct 12 1:00PMEDT * Patriots - Loss (as long as goodell and kraft are working together, this game will never be exciting)
• 7 Oct 19 1:00PMEDT ) Vikings =WIN
• 8 Oct 26 1:00PMEDT * AT Jets - LOSS (classic boring meadowland game that has the home team winning)
• 9 BYE
• 10 Nov 9 1:00PMEST * Chiefs - Loss (chiefs were pretty good last year)
• 11 Nov 13 8:25PMEST , AT Dolphins - Loss (prime time on the road never works out)
• 12 Nov 23 1:00PMEST * Jets - Loss (jet's running game somehow takes over for 1 game in the season)
• 13 Nov 30 1:00PMEST * Browns - Loss (Pettine storyline obviously trumps our ability to win)
• 14 Dec 7 4:05PMEST * AT Broncos - Loss (um superbowl appearance in high altitude; even the homers are with me on this one)
• 15 Dec 14 1:00PMEST ) Packers - Loss (great QB's beat the bills for the last 14 years. it continues)
• 16 Dec 21 4:25PMEST * AT Raiders - Win (raiders are dysfunctional and probably will enlighten us with yet another terrible draft)
• 17 Dec 28 1:00PMEST * AT Patriots - Loss (the second pats beating is always worse

4-12 is what i'm seeing as noted above.

6-10 was not a reach last year, the Bills should have won a few more than that.

Why do you assume the Bills should have won more? Because we lost some close games? We won some close games too.

[Historian]

The Bills have enough marquee talent that they should be on Monday or Sunday night at least once.

[PromoTheRobot]

Only the Jets twice. We get the Jets after their bye and we get them coming off a long week I believe

And we come off a Thur game the week of the Jets bye. There are no issues like last season on teams with byes before playing us.

No it is not,

Point to you on that matter.

I'll extend mine and say Buffalo needs to win on a CONSISTENT basis-year in and year out. Not be a one-season wonder, get some prime time action, blow chunks the next year and get back to the blah schedule.

I'm not referring to the teams you mentioned. I'm referring to US. Buffalo. We're NEVER going to get the love those teams you mentioned do. At least not from ESPN.

The only way the Bills get that love is by sheer, brute force. And that means winning on a consistent basis...not, as in Houston's case, putting up a 12-4 record in 2012(improving slightly from the season before)and then completely crapping the bed last season.

He doesn't think, trolls are not capable of thinking.

[IlluminatusUIUC]

Did the Bills permanently withdraw their request not to have night prime time games? I remember some years back they specifically asked not to have them.
