PRIMETIME PREDICTIONS for the BILLS schedule and 'REALISTIC' EXPECTATIONS for Buffalo's OFFENSE

[@BuffaloPlus]

Apologies for the audio issues. Didn’t discover until after we recorded the pod. We will get them fix before our next video! Sorry! -Dan

[@therealbeedubbs35]

We really only watch to see Jenna. So it’s okay, no one listened to this one lol jk

[@chetjablonski1993]

Never apologize Dan, you guys rock!!! Best Bills reporting & content there is!!! Thank you Team!

[@danno7466]

Long time show fans know Mike always has mic issues.

[@brandonday6153]

[@whatscookingwithbigpoppi747]

No prob! Ya'all do great work!

[@DavidMcCollester-tz8ur]

Burrows is Joe Cool, but I'll still take what my son calls "red faced Josh". Great or at times not so great, the excitement is always there.

[@Spectro-One]

Getting my Bills update from Ireland….☘️

[@dmbfantony]

Greetings from Germany! I hate prime time games! I can't watch games that start at 02:45. On top of that, the Super Bowl should start at 16:00 US east coast time. How does the NFL expect people to deal with such start times when they are trying to open up the Euroepean market?

[@sakostwwy1903]

I like the Thanksgiving games but not on board with Christmas. Unless it’s the Bills, there will be no way I am watching that. Even then it will maybe be on in the background. That’s family game time.

[@tinafursback5363]

Great show as always ❤

[@SouthBuffaloRay]

Great show, The Beane Throating was Low, Thanks

[@MartinMolisani]

Great to see Mike at the Amerks game. I had to introduce myself and my love for Buffalo Plus - he was very cordial. Keep up the excellent work crew! Appreciate you guys!

[@johnmarlow7959]

MVS JUST SIGNED WITH BILL 6'4 AND FIELD STREACHER

[@NateSoIL81]

Looking forward to the season. My one concern is not necessarily the WR room as we have plenty of competition there to cause guys to elevate talent and they will look better if we have a good running game. That being said our offensive line was pretty good last season for the running game but there are some changes for this season….if we struggle to run the ball it could be a long season. WE NEED TO CONTROL THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. It’s not sexy to talk about but it solves most all other problems Thanks guys! Looking forward to the schedule release.

[@brandonday6153]

I agree with u Dan abt the production we’re going to be missing! Imo when Brady took over this team was able to run the ball at a very efficient rate! I think we put Josh under center and run heavy play action! Coleman is a great run blocker and will be a weapon in the redzone! Go Bills !

[@manofwar6062]

Best Bills show! I always look forward to your show. Keep up the good work!

[@answeris4217]

Prime time pictures.... Josh and Knox in the prom pic.... with Knox voice over...I love you Josh Allen.

[@josgood5412]

We are lopsided toward “away” this season. I would like to start out away. Maybe even back to back away. That way the rest of the season becomes tilted toward home games. Starting at home would leave us with 7 home and 9 away the rest of the way.

[@eel1378]

I'm a season ticket holder in Connecticut, so I want all home games at 1pm. Otherwise, it's a super late night for me getting home after the game. All our primetime games can be on the road. And no holiday games please.

[@AnthonyClauser]

That sucks. But the Bills are going to have at least 2 games at 8pm, and at least 1 holiday game, but possibly both.

[@danno7466]

Well if it’s a late game and you’re not using them . . .

[@jamestomkin8784]

5 for sure , more with flex. Frisco at home, KC at-home No Thanksgiving, but Christmas day! One OT with Dolphins or Jets.

[@georgianamcglinchey573]

Wow. I’m in Connecticut and never made a game! That’s dedication!

[@georgianamcglinchey573]

Of course I can’t get tickets!😂

[@mikegreen4675]

Bills had 9 games on the road last year as well even though the 9th "home game" last year was actually in England

[@StressFreewithEdMallory]

I feel like Josh didn't spread it around as often as he could have last year because he knew Diggs would be upset if he wasn't targeted most of the time. Josh may feel better about finding the best option this year.

[@therealbeedubbs35]

Give me every game Sunday 4pm! Love those games

[@JKSSubstandard]

I'm going to go out on a limb. After all the prim time games in KC, I think the Bills host KC on SNF. I think the ravens game is a Sunday afternoon game. For the bumper image, Matt Milano, Ed Oliver and James Cook are the prime candidate for promotion to graphics

[@Al-mp2lm]

Milano should be previewed with Josh! Dude was missed last year

[@ChrisGenXer]

Great discussion. I tend to agree with Dan in the three prime time games, and I also agree that the Diggs thing became national news and the media pushed this so much that it’s is on the national stage. As far as who they will show with 17, I think it will be Kincaid or Coleman, but I understand if they put Von. When it comes to the number of catches Diggs had last year and how they were feeding him, I wonder how much of that was more an attempt to try to quell Diggs diva antics. There were a lot of passes that were forced to Diggs that made no sense to anyone watching.

[@billsfever]

He was definitely forcing the ball to Diggs to try and keep him happy. So many times you could tell from the snap of the ball that they were throwing to Diggs no matter what

[@BILLSOWNAFC]

BUFFALO PLUS IS FOR OUR BILLS MAFIA!!!!!ALWAYS SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON ON EACH UPLOAD!! 👍 Been a bills fan since 89 my whole family is obsessed fans!! Keep up the amazing work!

[@debbierush2965]

Go Bills!!! Go Birds!!!

[@arthurau9231]

One thing about the NFL schedule I never understood was how does the schedule makers determine when each team's BYE week is and if it is better to have an early or late bye week?

[@answeris4217]

Lions thanksgiving. Dolphins in Miami. KC at Buffalo. 9ers. Texans.

[@stigmajosh]

Bills just signed WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling. Hope he can stop dropping passes with Josh this year as compared to Mahomes.

[@myapatterson8228]

He gets separation that’s why he will be effective

[@shrabonichatterjee7979]

Matt Milano for the second picture! imo 😊

[@NFLStreetJosh]

Mike/Mic Issues needs to be a segment

[@michaelbrandes8586]

I only have a few comments. IMO the reason Diggs got MOST of the in the first half of the season is because Josh felt OBLIGATED to throw to him. There were many times Josh threw into coverage while other receivers were WIDE OPEN. My other comment is that I believe there will be much more of an even distribution this year. I believe Coleman will be a huge asset in his rookie year, and I believe Shakir will hit the 850 yard mark, while Kincaid will become mare and more Kelcey -like. I believe this will be the best year for Josh concerning QB rating.

[@RageDaug]

100% this. He forced it to Diggs because either he felt he had to, to keep Diggs happy, or Diggs was his security blanket. And it doesn't matter which reason it was to say it will be much better for Josh this year that he no longer can/has to. When you consider Diggs near 50% catch rate in the 2nd half of the season with DK and Shakir near 80%, I'm really happy Josh has to get the other receivers more involved. Should be more first downs, less stalled drives.

[@mikep3813]

Bills @ Dolphins week 2 Thursday night, so my guess is the opener will probably be a 1:00 Sunday

[@jamestomkin8784]

5 for sure, maybe 6 with flex. Frisco at home, KC at home, Jets or Dolphins on fd. GO BILLS!

[@jamestomkin8784]

Christmas day, no Thanksgiving.

[@NFLStreetJosh]

TNF in Miami lowers the stock for the Jenna/Adam Draft, but first mojito is one me to whoever comes down!

[@johnhofer7281]

Hey love the show don’t listen to the naysayers F them just saying!! Go Bills!

[@pmcmva]

I hear Houston is one of the best NFL cities to visit as an opposing fan base? 2nd in the picture? Josh and James Cook. Or, hey, depending on how hot he starts, maybe Keon as the new dynamic WR teamed with Josh

[@davidcostantino1838]

Bills at home for Thanksgiving....looks like I'm going home for Thanksgiving! The teams that play Christmas won't the NFC east or NFC north or whoever else plays on Thanksgiving. They're not giving those teams two holiday games. Second on the Bills to show on the screen is going to be Coleman...everyone loves to see that guy so he's recognizable. If the AFC east gets the Christmas games, one will be in NY. Who doesn't love to see NY at Christmas? They might have the other in Miami to show the difference. First half of the season is going to be pass game by committee. By the time we get to week 8 or 9 they'll have two WR's that move into the 1 and 1a rolls. Josh gets 4300 yds., no 1000 yd receiver but 3 around 800.

[@michaelandrew8493]

Less night games the better for us second shift guys

[@JKSSubstandard]

Please dear God host the Thanksgiving night game.

[@amandamarsh8956]

First game at Seahawks

[@MightyMouzMoto]

I think their success is going to depend more on how well Josh adapts to a more even distribution of the ball than who his WRs are. If he does that well, they can be better than they ever were.

[@aeb814]

That’s a good point. Can he be patient, efficient…? Since Dabol left, I kinda feel like he’s gone rogue. Remember how precise he was when Cole was here, especially that first year?

[@maxherzog3287]

I would not put the Jags in the "easy" part of the shcedule. I think we have lost the last 4 games to them. Including Urban Meyer

[@David-uh8bx]

If Kincaid is going to be the #1 target, he is going to have average well over 10 yards a reception. Right now, Coleman, Samuel, and Shakir appear to be #2 or #3 receivers. The Bills do not have a clear #1.

[@timd4789]

Do their mics have static

[@tomgillotti]

I’m tired of football on days not named Sunday. I love football but I hate the way Goodell is selling out the league and watering it down…

[@gtr1952]

Thinking back over the years, isn't Thanksgiving always Dallas and Detroit? They used to play each other when there was 1 game, now with 2, an early game might me Dallas v X, and a late game Detroit v X. The last T-giving gave we played was when we spanked Dallas in a late game? Detroit was the early game? Just a thought, --gary

[@gtr1952]

I just GOOGLED it. Since 1966, the Lions and Cowboys have always hosted a game on Thanksgiving day. The Lions game is always the first game, and Cowboys the second game. There were 2 exceptions for some reason, and a 3ed late game has been played. But it's always Detroit first game and Dallas second game on Thanksgiving. 8) --gary

[@gregread6278]

Somebody else has already commented on it, but the sound on both your microphones is very scratchy. Crackling on both mics.

I already seen the schedule. It was leaked. Unless it was a fake we play Texans week 2. 9ers to open the season 8pm and Christmas game vrs jets

[@budkamyabi4674]

Week 2 Bills are at Miami on Thursday Night. STOP SPREADING LIES!

[@Tony525_]

You want a hot take Dan...Diggs was a mistake from beginning to end. If we kept our pick and took Jefferson, where would we be?

[@RageDaug]

First thing is: more than half of all first round receivers are a bust, so it's super easy looking back to say, "The Bills messed up when they didn't draft Tom Brady in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, or 6th round of the 2000 draft." We drafted the following players while Brady was still on the board: Erik Flowers, Travares Tillman, Corey Moore, Avion Black, Sammy Morris, Leif Larsen So yeah, we can go year by year and show the Hall of Famers that the Bills could have drafted who they passed over and should "Hot Take! we should have got the guy we now know is better!". But you can do that with every team in every draft. So that is to say, we can say today that Jefferson is better than Diggs, we could not say that at the time. Secondary, I still think Diggs helped Allen progress. I think Allen would have gotten better with Jefferson on the roster as well, but Diggs was a veteran receiver would was able to help the young QB with his understanding of the game. So I stand by the trade and think it was a good move by Beane based on what he knew the day he made the trade.

[@Tony525_]

On the Joe Burrow comments that Mike was sayin , I gotta disagree. Joe may be a human-cyborg that doesn't experience a flight-fight-fear response like us common humans, but if there's a Bengals game on I'm gonna watch it just to witness the efficiency. Bills could really use some of that

[@user-cq4hc3gq6p]

Joe Burrow IS definitely BORING. CJ Stroud hands down has more personality and more talent than Burrow. Burrow is efficient and gets the job done, but he has no pizzaz. As Josh Allen goes, so the Bills go. The O line has to protect Allen and Allen needs to protect the ball, play like the second half of last season and use all the weapons. I like the ground game and how it is expanding, and they need to ground and pound. Don't make 1 player a dominant player like Diggs forced the offence. Go to the players who contribute and are engaged. Last year both Diggs and Davis were a detriment to the offence in particular games. Davis just disappeared. The receivers this year have to get open and have to step up and make receptions. I like the new offence and where it is going. Good riddance to both Diggs and Davis. I want more ground and pound.

[@RobertAWilson]

Why are you so negative about the receivers? I feel the receivers are going to be fine?

[@jeromedion5723]
