How would Tuesday + Saturday to Buffalo be any different than Sunday + Thursday to Buffalo?

[jjchieffan]

Why Saturday? Just move it to Sunday. Bills would already be getting an extra prime time game to offset the lost Thursday night game, and the Chiefs already got their extra prime time game with the Pats. So, make it Sunday afternoon and be done with it. No need to put it up against college football games.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Cause the opponent doesn’t get that same amount of rest.

KC would be getting 6 full days.

i think for TV purposes they want to be the only NFL game on

TNF is a primetime solo game

so im thinking it will just become Saturday Night Football

Ratings for the network that has a huge prime time game.

It's not about the chiefs or bills being owed a primetime game, it's the network who paid to have an exclusive timeslot for maximum viewers being owed an exclusive timeslot. Saturday is the only way that happens.

[O.city]

Would make sense to move it to Thursday. Not sure why they wouldn't.

Then I hope they're not giving the Bills the W and instead treating it like a bye week.

Gonna have to use win percentages on this one. I think it's only fair.

[FloridaMan88]

A big college football game is on CBS primetime next Saturday... Alabama-Georgia.

If FOX had their preference, I am sure they would want to keep that Buffalo-KC game on Thursday, but they may not have a choice.

I don’t they do.

But I doubt they’d fuss too much. Any casual football fan is going to watch Mahomes/Allen over any college game.

[FloridaMan88]

Here is another hurdle for moving the Buffalo game to Saturday (and broadcasting it on national TV)... the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961.

Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_Broadcasting_Act_of_1961


The law has been interpreted to include the so-called "blackout rules" which protect a home team from competing games broadcast into its home territory on a day when it is playing a game at home, and from having to broadcast games within its home market area that have not sold out. It also, in effect, protects high school football and college football game attendance by blacking out pro football games locally on Friday evenings and Saturdays during those sports' regular seasons; these measures effectively outlawed the broadcasting (and, in practice, the playing) of NFL games on those days, since virtually all of the country is within 75 miles (120 km) of at least one high school game on every Friday night in September and October.

This portion of the act has since been partially circumvented; the NFL extended its season in 1978 to allow a few weeks of Friday night or Saturday games if the league so wished. Late-season Saturday games have been common since then, but Friday night games are still extremely rare; the league has played only eight Friday games since 1978, mostly because of the NFL's restrictions during Christmas. In 2005, a Miami Dolphins-Kansas City Chiefs matchup, scheduled for Sunday, October 23 in Miami, was moved up to 7pm Friday night due to Hurricane Wilma. The game was televised only within 75 miles of Miami and Kansas City.

[wazu]

She is legit.

But I don’t see how they can do Tues + Saturday to Buffalo. That would be terrible when KC would be coming off a Sunday game.

We're all in this together, Bills.

[wazu]

The Saturday thing is kind of silly. Just put the game on Sunday. Send the Titans a nice hefty fine that covers any ad revenue lost.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

I'm looking forward to a Thursday night game but if it gets moved I'm gonna do a night fishin trip. Been wanting to do that anyway.

[MahiMike]

Anytime I can watch on Saturday I'll take it. College fans are so lucky.

[DRM08]

If they need to move Buffalo/Titans to Tuesday...

How about moving Buffalo/Chiefs to Monday? The Chiefs & Packers double header was pretty cool earlier this week. The normal Monday game for Week 6 is in Dallas (central time just like Green Bay). They could easily do the same thing we saw earlier this week.

Chiefs/Buffalo at 6:05 PM Central
Cards/Cowboys at 7:50 PM Central

Don't curr.

There's was talk of them doing that kinda shit to us, so fugg'em.

It's an odd year and there's going to be teams at disadvantages if we're going to have a season. It almost happened to us, hell, it may happen to us.

[RockChalk]

Cause the opponent doesn’t get that same amount of rest.

KC would be getting 6 full days.

How is that any different from a Thursday night participant playing a Sunday participant the following week? So we played Thursday against the Bills then would have 9 days between games, and our opponent (Broncos, in this case) would only have 6 days between games. Sometimes with the schedule, you just don't have equal days of rest between games.

I think we need to accept that any resolution will be unfair to someone, and we just have to hope that it isn’t us.

College football is huge down here. You ever live in SEC country, its way different than the Midwest. Millions live and die with their teams much like many here with the Chiefs. But...... they are still the little brother. Shit happened and the NFL needs to play on Saturday night, sorry but the big dog runs the TV landscape.

Agree with all of this.

The League needs to try to keep things as fair as possible, but a team will get fucked. It absolutely will happen.

Sucks if it happens to the Chiefs, but that’s much better than no season at all.

The NFL needs to enforce a penalty on the Titans that is so harsh it makes doing what they did absolutely unthinkable going forward. I want Titans fans complaining about it 10 years from now.

[gold_and_red]

Just call the music city miracle a forward pass and award that game to Buffalo. Then change every result from Tennessee to Buffalo with the final SB loss, a result Bills are already very comfortable with.

[Bewbies]

Move our game to Sat plz!!!

UGA v Bama is a big one down here too.

[htismaqe]

Some teams are going to have to play on fewer (or more) days rest. It's not going to be totally fair. As long as it doesn't start becoming weeks instead of days, it is what it is.

But if that prevents games from being forfeited (which is WHOLLY unfair on many levels) so be it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_Broadcasting_Act_of_1961

The Sports Broadcasting Act was passed in response to a court decision which ruled that the NFL's method of negotiating television broadcasting rights violated antitrust laws.[2][3] The court ruled that the "pooling" of rights by all the teams to conclude an exclusive contract between the league and CBS was illegal.

The Act overrules that decision, and permits certain joint broadcasting agreements among the major professional sports. It recognizes the fact that the various franchises in a sports league, while competitors in the sporting sense, are not as much business competitors as they are interdependent partners, whose success as enterprises is intertwined, as a certain level of competitive balance between them must exist for any of them to remain viable enterprises. Therefore, it permits the sale of a television "package" to a network or networks in which the league members share equally, a procedure which is common today. Of the five major North American professional team sports, the Act is most pertinent to the NFL, as all of its regular-season and playoff games are covered by the rights assigned by its various packages with the networks, including its own.

The law has been interpreted to include the so-called "blackout rules" which protect a home team from competing games broadcast into its home territory on a day when it is playing a game at home, and from having to broadcast games within its home market area that have not sold out.

I would think COVID-19 is a valid excuse to have an exception to that historical precedent.

[DaneMcCloud]

The Saturday thing is kind of silly. Just put the game on Sunday. Send the Titans a nice hefty fine that covers any ad revenue lost.

Fox and Amazon have paid out a ton of money for the broadcast rights to Thursday Night Football.

Moving a game, especially a game with the appeal of two undefeated teams in the AFC, including the Super Bowl Champions, would generate a larger than normal percentage of advertising revenues, which will not happen if the game is moved to Sunday morning or afternoon.

It could also damage (albeit, slightly) the league's overall ratings at the end of the year, although I doubt it will affect the ongoing negotiations for new broadcast deals.

[TribalElder]

hopefully we play saturday night

then also on tuesday, wed, and friday at some point so we can win a game on every day of the week on our way to another super bowl

[DaneMcCloud]

I am fine with moving Chiefs-Bills to Saturday or Sunday night.

It's impossible to move any game to Sunday night, as NBC owns the exclusive broadcast rights for Sunday Night Football.

[MahomesKnows]

It's impossible to move any game to Sunday night, as NBC owns the exclusive broadcast rights for Sunday Night Football.

This could be true, but I would have said the same about MNF (ESPN) and they moved that one. I'm sure there NFL would prefer Saturday night though. The more days/potential viewers, the better.

[DaneMcCloud]

This could be true, but I would have said the same about MNF (ESPN) and they moved that one.

It's not up for debate. NBC owns the Broadcast Rights for Sunday Night Football and there's no chance in hell they allow Fox to broadcast the Chiefs-Bills Sunday evening.

ESPN moved their start time back 40 minutes to accommodate the Patriots-Chiefs and the game was more than 2/3rd over by the time the MNF game began.

The Sunday schedule does not allow for such a move.

It would be the ultimate “because Chiefs” moment if we missed out on the top QB, because we were given a free win against a better team during our pre-Mahomes days.

Forfeit is the last nuclear option. The NFL will avoid it at all costs.

I'm inclined to be in agreement with you. But I wouldn't be surprised to see the NFL make an example out of the Titans to ensure teams are taking this seriously.

[DRM08]

Titans deserve to have serious punishment, but I do not want to see Buffalo benefit from it. Not fair to KC or a bunch of other playoff teams.

[InChiefsHeaven]

So, were the unauthorized workouts sanctioned by Vrabel?

To be clear, I think this whole thing is a Florio creation. A "higher up" is "guessing" at what the penalty will be?

Personally, I think it should be stronger than what he's suggesting.

It reeks of the unprofessional journalism KC had been subjected to with Kevin Keitzman for years.

"My sources tell me Scot Pioli has been abducted by aliens... Now I am not saying it's true, but my sources tell me... So take it for what it's worth."

The next 3 hours are spent on Keitzman waxing poetic on alien abductions and what this could possibly mean for the Chiefs.

He failed to instill the culture which would prevent those players from acting that way. Whether that's fear tactics or garnering respect, I don't care.

Are they doing this so Cam can play? If he is not cleared to play Sunday, but would be on Monday, that's kind of a shitty thing to do to the Broncos.

Gilmore tested positive this week, but unless they had another one since, it still seems strange.

So if the Bills do play on Tuesday then KC has no more Thursday night games (pending COVID situation the rest of the season)? Seems like a huge scheduling win.

They’re just building in the excuses for an ass whooping they’d likely get no matter what.

If I had to bet, it’ll stay on Thursday anyhow because Tennessee will have more positives. And then we will again be at a disadvantage.

[KChiefs1]

I wouldn't get too excited just yet.

If Tennessee has anymore positive tests...it's back to Thursday night.

[tk13]

Those all seem like smart moves. Sucks for the Bills, but you wanted football, well this is what you're going to have to deal with.

No different than the St. Louis Cardinals having to play eleventy million doubleheaders. I'm not sure what these fans thought was going to happen. If you want a perfectly clean normal season, you might as well just cancel the whole thing and come back in 2021.

My guess would be that it'll be on NFL Network, but I also can see it being on NBC or CBS, whichever they originally were slotted to.

Of course they wouldn't. Like I said before, they're getting an extra day of rest. They're looking at this all wrong. That extra day of rest, for guys nursing injuries, is FAR more important than whether or not the Chiefs got MORE rest.

Evidence is mounting that if you just follow their protocols properly, teams should be just fine. Don’t be the Titans, that is all.

[O.city]

Well so far this is gonna work out great for chiefs if game goes to Sunday

[DRM08]

It will be 3:25 I bet

3:25 on Sunday does not work very well. FOX already has the Rodgers/Brady matchup for that time slot. Either way it looks like Buffalo/KC is going to be a regional matchup no matter what. FOX can't be happy about that. Of course the Titans have to test negative for 3 more days, or we go back to a Thursday matchup for KC/Buffalo.

I’m sure all networks will get shafted a few times this year, they’ll probably just be glad to get the season in like all of us. Much money to be made.

[GingaChief]

I hope it's an early kick off, being from UK I won't survive another late night.. lol.

Two more days. They evidently don’t test the day of the game.

Valid points. :thumb:

Game is Tuesday. So they would have testing on Saturday, Sunday, Monday. The test result we got this morning was from Friday.

I think they will for this type of situation — I know they did for NE/KC.

I hope the Chiefs aren’t playing the same time as that game.

[displacedinMN]

If buff kc moves.. it could be the first time I used Sunday ticket this year

This is truth.

They’ll try to play if at all possible.

Would like to think the Titans did a good job yesterday with protocols after the debacle that was...

[ShowtimeSBMVP]

What's funny is they shut these teams down for a case. But if Walmart or target has a employee get it they stay open. Did the NFL and players not know this could happen that's why they had the opt out period

[UChieffyBugger]

We just had a staff member test positive and as of right now the game is still on. Staff members testing positive have not shut down games...only players testing positive have. So as long as the players test well today and tomorrow the Titans should be able to play.

By all accounts the game is on...Titans players and the league folks are saying so according nfl reporters.

[DRM08]

Feels like Buffalo/Titans game is hanging by a thread. They need squeaky clean test results the next couple days.

Hope Tits don’t infect Bills who in turn infect KC.

[thabear04]

Bills game moved to Monday now.

[JakeF]

If we play like we did today, Buffalo beats us too.

[KChiefs1]

I think having 2 extra days rest over Buffalo will help.
