New NFL Network Schedule Means Buffalo Bills Will Play In Prime Time

PrintThe Buffalo Bills will be returning to prime time football in 2012. But don't worry - so will every other NFL team.
A new league initiative will place one prime-time Thursday night game on NFL Network from Weeks 2-15 starting in 2012; between that development and the already-existing Sunday Night Football and Monday Night Football schedules, all 32 NFL teams will be playing at least one prime-time game per season moving forward, according to commissioner Roger Goodell.
Of course, this news is likely to be met by groans from Bills fans that remember the team's recent history on a national stage. Their most recent prime time game occurred in Week 1 of 2009 - burgeoned by the team's signing of Terrell Owens - when they blew an 11-point fourth-quarter lead to fall 25-24 to New England in Tom Brady's triumphant return from a knee injury. The team also lost two more Monday Night Football games in preceding seasons - a 25-24 loss to Owens and Dallas in 2007, and then a dreary 29-24 defeat at the hands of Cleveland in 2008. That goes without mentioning a 56-10 loss to New England on Sunday Night Football in '07, as well.
What do you make of the Bills returning to prime time in 2012?

I used to live in a world where NFL Teams EARNED the right to play on Primetime. Those days are far behind us, obviously.
My guess is that the Bills get a Thursday Night or Monday Night game. I think the NFL/NBC want the “elite” teams on Sunday Night.
Yea I'm with you
Even though I’m semi-excited about it, I kind of wish we were getting it because we earned it…
This feels like little league baseball; everybody gets a trophy.
However, it seemed like Jacksonville got like 3 games last year, and they haven’t earned squat…So I guess it don’t matter much
exactly
teams get primetime all the time without “earning” it. i dont understand this sentiment.

NBC has flex scheduling at the end of the season. The Bills can become “elite” under that scenario. They just have to be winning.
If it’s on NFLN I’ll be pissed since I don’t get that network.

I billieve
Because I billieve we’ll be much better next season, I am excited about a prime time game. That said, I wouldn’t be surprised if it WAS in Toronto… because the Bills and the NFL want this relationship to continue I think, and trying to sell more tickets to Toronto games is a big priority in that… a prime time game might actually sell out the Rogers Centre…
Even though I live in Toronto, I grew up near the Ralph, and think it’d be a shame to have it here. I can’t afford to go to the games here anyway, so I have to watch them at home or at a bar, and if its on NFLN, I’ll be at some bar… not Applebees though, because of obvious reasons.
I think it's ridiculous that the tickets are so much more expensive up here! A true Bills fan will drive the 45 minutes to the Ralph and pay 100$ less per ticket EVERY SINGLE TIME.
I honestly believe that the ticket price is the reason it’s not selling out. Because there are enough Bills fans to sell out the Rogers Center every time, we just don’t want to pay the mark up on the ticket.

I think the Bills were already on the way to getting 2-3 primetime games before this annoucement.
I am prediciting one Thursday game – Thanksgiving night on NBC at home.
One Monday Night Football game – at San Francisco.
One Thrusday Night game on NFLN – at home versus Mia or NYJ.

by J2 on Feb 3, 2012 3:02 PM EST up reply actions
I’m 100% serious and sober… about the 2-3 primetime games (joking about Thanksgiving).
My assumption is based on were the team is heading.
The 49ers were 6-10 and got two primetime games (hosted a MNF).
Jags were 8-8 and played three primetime games (hosted 2 MNF).
The Bills off of a 6-10 are an “improving” team with an offense that is fun to watch.
Fred Jackson is fun to watch. Spiller is fun to watch. Stevie is fun to watch.
On the west coast I got zero Bills coverage the last few years, except for Stevie coverage.
Why so Serious and Stevie blaming God for the drop against PIT were the only times I heard about the Bills.
Then this year the Bills had the hot start, the good play of Fred Jackson, the comeback against the Raiders and Patriots and the win against the Eagles. I saw more Bills coverage in the first month of the season than the last few years combined.
This is an intriguing team.
I’ll stick by my prediction – sans the Thanksgiving game.
"First souls collected" - Abayarde, 9/11/11
Regarding the Thanksgiving night game, I had an idea in my mind that they should give those games to the original AFL teams.
The first game went to KC due to the work of Lamar Hunt.
I thought that a tribute to Ralph Wilson and the Bills would fit that bill.
That was just something that I came up with when the first game was announced.
Since then, I believe they gave the other games to ATL and BALT which blew my idea out of the water.
"First souls collected" - Abayarde, 9/11/11
The Bills can’t be considered an improving team now that they just finished 1-8. They were improving the first part of the season and now they’ve regressed.
They’ll be lucky to get one road game against an NFC foe.

I'll go out on a limb and say we get a whopping 2 prime time games!
I like the idea of us getting the late night Thanksgiving game as Juice predicted, so I’ll go with that being the FIRST one, it will be on the road against Houston with the story line being Mario Williams return to Houston! The 2nd game will be a December home blizzard game against none other than the NY football Jets. I say we go 1-1 in prime time, which is a far better result than past games.

Skydome
I went there for a tour and lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe when it was still new and admired by most when I vacationed in Toronto because the Blue Jays were on the road. I hate all domes to begin with, absolutely hate them with no exceptions, but some come across especially ugly on TV: St. Louis, Toronto, the old Kingdome, Atlanta…In all honesty at 4:00 when the Bills are over, I will watch a 4-8 Jaguars team play a 3-9 Raiders team in sunny California rather than two 10-2 teams squaring off in a dank dome. I’ve done it many times.
"There's only one C.J. Spiller." -Buddy Nix
I feel the same—I always feel like I’m watching something out of a studio…
But I have to admit, I go to many Rays games and they play in a Dome I don’t mind it one bit. I wouldn’t go if I had to sit out in that blazing sun with high humidity and the raining season is during the summer…
I travel to the Swamp to watch the Gators play and those early games in September are brutal to sit thru but it is football so I don’t mind it. Football is meant to be played outside.

The response was that the league would only expand by two, not one. But he followed that up by saying that there are no plans of expansion in the foreseeable future.

So someone remind me, if the game is on the NFL network and you do not get it, do they show it on local TV, so long as it’s a sell out or away game? I thought they did this for a Bills game before.

Rite of passage
I think it’s good that we’ll be guaranteed at least one prime time game a year, despite our recent history on the national stage. Good teams find a way to win and the stakes are a little higher when the whole country is watching. Mentally, this team showed some signs of making it over the hump this past year but then collapsed in the 2nd half. If we are going to be a playoff contender, we have to be able to show up to these games and fight through them and win. The Bills have to learn to be able to keep everything else out and play the game between the lines.
As much as this league is about talent and athleticism, and schemes etc etc – it all ultimately comes down to execution. And when we execute, we can beat anyone. But the problem is this team has a hard time consistently executing. And it’s easy to just be satisfied with mediocrity when you’re rarely on national tv. Maybe “easy” isn’t the right word, but I’ll tell you what – when we played friday night games in high school there was a bit of extra jolt in our step, we focused a little more b/c we know the stands would be full and we felt like we were being watched. The rest of the NFL tends to forget about Buffalo. Now at least we’ll be guaranteed one game a year in front of the nation. I think it will be a good test for a team like Buffalo who is trying hard to get over that hump.
'09 NE Loss
I know it was just one play, and I know this is irrational, but I simply cannot forgive Leodis McKelvin for not taking a knee in the endzone on that last kickoff. I remember seeing him take off running and screaming “NOOOOOOOO” at the television. It was the strangest thing, but I knew he would fumble. The announcers had said seconds before that the Patriots had their hands team on the field, and it just felt like the perfect foreshadowing for a disaster. Watching that seemingly predestined futility just hurt so badly. I cannot forgive McKelvin. I want him off the roster in 2012.

God's honest truth.....
I was watching this game in a bar, and after the Bills went up, I think the score was 24-13, I turned to the guy I had been sitting beside for the entire game (a non-Bills fan) and said, “I GUARANTEE you that the Bills blow this game”. He said “Absolutely no way”.
I told him, “I’ve been a Bills fan for over 25 years. I know my team.” When Leodis fumbled that ball, the guy just looked at me with his mouth wide open……

Our 1 primetime game next year.....
…….. will be away versus Cleveland. The NFL can tuck this ugly little game away on NFL network on a Thursday night and still meet the requirements of “everybody gets a primetime game.”
Most folks don’t get NFL network, so they can hide this thing away, probably week 4 or 5, and nobody will ever know it even happened. They check two blocks on the same week.
My personal preference would be at home, on MNF, against the Jets. Home game for the fans on the big stage, and we beat Rex’s *ss!!

The NCAA amd NFL had this agreement where NFL games would not be shown when NCAA games were happening and vice versa which is why you didn’t see Thursday night games until Thanksgiving.
Does anyone know if the NFL decided to say the heck with the agreement for further profits?

The Sports Broadcasting Act (SBA) in 1961 prevented the NFL from televising games during Friday night to Saturday night, essentially through the college “regular” season. This is why there are NFL games on Saturday starting in mid-December.
