Re: Pats/Bills game moved to Sunday Night
The thing that surprises me about the Pitt game is not that it's staying on CBS (they have to be able to keep some good games), but that it's at 1. Seems like they'll have to move that to 4:15.
This makes sense for NBC, though. The Patriots are by far the biggest story in football this year and probably the biggest story in many years. This is the last chance they have to grabbing a game that has the potential of being competitive, although the Jets game will have some morbid appeal for sure.
Personally, I think this is the best chance for a team to steal a game from the Pats. Sure, it's not a good chance, but I don't think the Pats lose at home, and I can't imagine the Ravens ever scoring against them. And, really, if they're going for perfection, can the Giants really stand in their way? I don't think so.
So that leaves the Bills ... I think the Pats will go all the way to 16-0, but this game has a best chance of tripping them up, imo.
How? The extra seven hours are all that important?It sucks because it gives the Bills more time to plan for the Pats, diminsihing the effectiveness of our bye.
