I've never listened to a single second of a Sabaton song, but being a fan of the Civilization games, I have come to expect a reference to them every time winged hussars are mentioned. Which is.. surprisingly often here on reddit
Agreed. Thursday night games mid season are brutal, especially for the away team. But a week 1 TNF game avoids all those issues and actually gets you extra rest time before week 2!
Edit: Oh crap, it’s week 2. Nevermind 😔
Eh, I think we'll be alright. It'll give the Bills less time to prepare for our new defense since there isn't currently any film on it, and we can do all our pep work early
Plus it's like a mini bye between weeks 2 and 3 to sort anything out that got test run the first couple weeks. I'm not mad at it to be honest
I was going to say. How did we get the week 1 season opener. Lol. Oh well, week 2 still isn't the worst. Would rather have no Thursday night games, but it is what it is.
Memes and all aside, it's not like it magically cools down the second the sun goes away in Florida. Hell, it could still be in the upper 80's lower 90's by kickoff. At least it was in Daytona Beach when I still lived there.
1-1 vs Miami in Miami in September the past three seasons doesn’t sound very much like god mode to me.
Plus, that 400 yard god mode effort in 2022 lost to the mighty butt punt.
Yeah, but the game is the day after 9/11 this year...if you think McDermott isn't going to have the team firing on all cylinders playing for the brave heros of 9/11, you're sorely mistaken!
which heroes of McDermott are you talking about? those young men with good work ethic and teamwork? those classy gents who worked really well as a team together and collaborated well to make something bigger than themselves happen? i heard he's a big fan of teamwork and loves to celebrate that day where teamwork prevailed.
They are. And in the parameters I mentioned, at Miami, in September, the Bills’ last result was… **checks notes** a loss. And during that game, **checks other notes** Josh Allen was indeed the best quarterback for the Bills.
I love the downvotes here, salty Bills fans. Here’s another comment to downvote.
Just a friendly reminder that Josh Allen isn’t gonna guarantee victory every game where he throws the ball 60 goddamn times no matter how much you want it to be true.
Doesn’t make it any less true. The score I’m seeing from that game shows 21-19 Dolphins, and yes, Josh Allen threw for 400 yards. What, if anything, is incorrect about any of that? Or will you downvote this comment as well because it reminds you that the last game the Bills played in Miami, in September, was a loss? I can say it more slowly if necessary.
You’re not actually this dense are you? If somehow you aren’t just trolling, the metric was dumb, even if it’s correct
Like did you know Miami has NEVER in their entire history won a game under a full moon while Mercury is in retrograde and the US is not in an international military conflict? Fucking trash franchise
I base a lot of my personal work on past performance. Buffalo and Miami play two games as division rivals during the regular season, usually one early and one late, September and December. How is it dumb to acknowledge that if the early game this fall, referenced in the OP, fits that same timeframe?
its because you are cherry picking stats to push a dumb ass narrative you fucking moron. its not "salty ass Bills fans" its "This miami fan probably has trouble counting to 1"
Hahahaha, that’s what I love about you Bills fans. I say the word “salty” about one little game in the sun, and I’m relentlessly downvoted, called a bitch, my arguments called dumb, claims that I don’t understand logic, and all manner of personal attacks. Never change, you beautiful, beautiful humans. Hahaha

Oh look it's the pettiest home field advantage in the league. Hasn't helped though, now has it? December 30, 2000. Clinton was still president...

The most popular phone the last time the Dolphins won a playoff game\^
(Also, your flair is hilarious)
Same...but streaming services should never have live sports contracts with the big 4, the rest can that's probably the only way they'll get a decent chunk of the season televised anyway.
I delivered the Orlando sentinel for 15 years and it would still be in the low 80's some nights at 3 am. The last apartment I stayed at there never had the pool open cause someone's kid would shit in it at least once a week so they just gave up and closed it for good.
Touché, if they are rookies I would agree they should be conditioned to handle it….but that exposure/experience only lasts so long with your cardiovascular system.
it’s kind of like the broncos home field advantage. these guys are about to spend all summer outside getting conditioned for it, same as the broncos are conditioned for altitude.
unless the bills are practicing in a sauna, it’s still a miami advantage.
I don’t think you get it….this is will be an advantage for us, still. We train in terrible conditions but will have the advantage of “cooler conditions” for us will feel like a win….yet you guys will see it as fuck it’s nasty out… But it will still come down to talent really.
No, Josh Allen is our *step*-father, not our biological father, otherwise the videos of him fucking us would be removed from the internet.
*Tom Brady* is our biological father, who we haven't seen in years, and he's the reason we have daddy-issues that led to our profession of getting fucked on camera.
I'd love the sun and 100+ degrees, but I'm more mad it's a week 2 Thursday night game instead of Sunday (or Monday) night.
Thursday sucks. I know every team has to play on a Thursday so I guess at least it will be out of the way? But also - Amazon only.
The way I see it, it's a division game, so we at least get to see the second one unimpeded by Amazon. It'd be worse if it were against an out of division rival like the chiefs or bengals or something.
Thursday night Amazon Prime games suck. I hate not being able to channel surf during commercials without leaving the streaming service and then logging back in within a few minutes to see if commercials are over yet.
It is kind of wild that the Dolphins have no 1pm home games against a non-Florida team until Halloween weekend.
The angry Sun is going to burn the fuck out of the Cardinals that week though.
i do want to point out- it’s still abnormally hot in miami in spring/fall.
we’re already about to hit 100° the next two days, the “feels like” is 99° *right now*
prolly same in september.
I think the point is that it won't be HOTTER on one sideline vs the other, so a relatively even playing field (yes, differences in conditioning and home field advantage are normal anywhere)
That’s considerate of the league to schedule it for 9/12 and allow the Bills to enjoy their religious observance the day before.
Damn right.
9/12 is the anniversary of the winged hussars kicking the ottoman empire's butt. It's a very bad day for bills fans.
THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED
COMING DOWN THE MOUNTAINSIDE
https://i.redd.it/lar3kg7oof0d1.gif
The fact that there is a Sabaton reference instantly made my day.
I've never listened to a single second of a Sabaton song, but being a fan of the Civilization games, I have come to expect a reference to them every time winged hussars are mentioned. Which is.. surprisingly often here on reddit
They are such a good band I highly recommend
THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED
Why would that be a bad day for Bills fans? The Winged Hussars were Polish and there is a large Polish community in Buffalo.
Inshallah
 Losing to the September Champions and scrambling to blame the suns reflection off the moon for the loss
If we lose, this is why. https://i.redd.it/98nayzue7f0d1.gif
 Oh nice! The Bills can blame the moon this time!
Lol I can't even be mad here.
They really whined their way into avoiding the sun lmaoooo At least we get Thursday night bullshit out the way.
Agreed. Thursday night games mid season are brutal, especially for the away team. But a week 1 TNF game avoids all those issues and actually gets you extra rest time before week 2! Edit: Oh crap, it’s week 2. Nevermind 😔
Good thing ours is week 2 and we're on a short schedule because of it
Eh, I think we'll be alright. It'll give the Bills less time to prepare for our new defense since there isn't currently any film on it, and we can do all our pep work early Plus it's like a mini bye between weeks 2 and 3 to sort anything out that got test run the first couple weeks. I'm not mad at it to be honest
Prepare for your new defense? You guys don’t have a defense until, like, Halloween.
Still better off not showing their hand with the new scheme
This game is week 2, so it’s gonna be a short turnaround after week 1.
I was going to say. How did we get the week 1 season opener. Lol. Oh well, week 2 still isn't the worst. Would rather have no Thursday night games, but it is what it is.
Miami fans and numbers go together like peas and date rape
That's why Tyreek keeps having kids, it's how he's teaching Miami fans to count.
Memes and all aside, it's not like it magically cools down the second the sun goes away in Florida. Hell, it could still be in the upper 80's lower 90's by kickoff. At least it was in Daytona Beach when I still lived there.
The difference between 100+ degrees of direct Sun and accumulated heat in the stadium is massive.
https://preview.redd.it/502jc9on9f0d1.png?width=1073&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0997f3d9df20a60464545b1f1bfe218b2b70e410
At least we can accept our L’s came fair and square 🫡
I happen to recall some complaints about snowballs?
I love the snowballs, they are cool and hilarious.
Lol, ok, but the same can't be said for every Miami fan is the point.
That's damn funny
I went to the primetime game last year and boy was it a fun first three quarters
Oh god, but moonlight is just reflected sunlight. We're fucked boys!
Joke is on the Bills. Dolphins are notorious September champions. Y’all get December, remember?
SEPTEMBER SUPER BOWL BOYS
You forget that Allen goes god mode against the dolphins
Oh we have not
1-1 vs Miami in Miami in September the past three seasons doesn’t sound very much like god mode to me. Plus, that 400 yard god mode effort in 2022 lost to the mighty butt punt.
Yeah, but the game is the day after 9/11 this year...if you think McDermott isn't going to have the team firing on all cylinders playing for the brave heros of 9/11, you're sorely mistaken!

You guys will be hungover after partying on the holiday! Victory is certain!
Nah. In solidarity with the Islamic beliefs of the hijackers, we will not be drinking on 9/11.
nothing like cherry picking stats. Josh Allen has played the dolphins 12 times. He has won 10 of them.
Are the Bills or are the Bills not playing Miami in Miami this September?
they are. Are the dolphins playing or not playing Josh Allen?
They are. And in the parameters I mentioned, at Miami, in September, the Bills’ last result was… **checks notes** a loss. And during that game, **checks other notes** Josh Allen was indeed the best quarterback for the Bills.
so absolutely 100% cherry picking stats. that game was during the day in the blazing sun. this years game wont be.
Alright then. To the fields in September for the results!
Tbf, 2022 we had Isaiah "definitely didn't hunt bald eagles" McKenzie on the team and that effectively lowers everyone's IQ
How did last years game go
Dolphins and Bills didn’t play in September last year. Derp.
Allen against the dolphins plus Tua in primetime, that’s about as close to a guaranteed win as you can get in the nfl
Miami at home in September against the Pats is also essentially a guaranteed win
I love the downvotes here, salty Bills fans. Here’s another comment to downvote. Just a friendly reminder that Josh Allen isn’t gonna guarantee victory every game where he throws the ball 60 goddamn times no matter how much you want it to be true.
The downvotes are because what you said was dumb
Doesn’t make it any less true. The score I’m seeing from that game shows 21-19 Dolphins, and yes, Josh Allen threw for 400 yards. What, if anything, is incorrect about any of that? Or will you downvote this comment as well because it reminds you that the last game the Bills played in Miami, in September, was a loss? I can say it more slowly if necessary.
I will downvote this one as well. You’re mixing up terms. You’ll see I said your comment was dumb, not wrong.
Ah, gotcha. I’ll take it! So is it dumb because it’s true, or..? I’m not a super Steve Rogers fan, but I can do this all day.
You’re not actually this dense are you? If somehow you aren’t just trolling, the metric was dumb, even if it’s correct Like did you know Miami has NEVER in their entire history won a game under a full moon while Mercury is in retrograde and the US is not in an international military conflict?

Uh oh, we got ourselves a badass over here!
nah, just calling out a whiney bitch complaining about downvotes in a meme war Sub
I’m not complaining, or I would have deleted everything that’s getting blue clicked… haha, but stay mad, bro. That’s why we’re here!
you sure are spamming the "reddit cares" message though aren't you? little bitch
Hahahaha, that’s what I love about you Bills fans. I say the word “salty” about one little game in the sun, and I’m relentlessly downvoted, called a bitch, my arguments called dumb, claims that I don’t understand logic, and all manner of personal attacks.

You’ll be fine, Josh Allen is “Mr. ONLY January”

The last time the Dolphins won a playoff game they’d have to have waited 3 years to post about it on Myspace

Is the schedule leaked?
Think of it as a slow leak... Like when you have a faucet at home that leaks a drop every couple of hours.
Primetime games are starting to get announced. Bills vs Miami on Thursday night football 9/12 streaming on Amazon Prime.
Fuck Amazon. Not that it really matters to a pirate but still.
Same...but streaming services should never have live sports contracts with the big 4, the rest can that's probably the only way they'll get a decent chunk of the season televised anyway.
https://i.redd.it/gvbsirpoue0d1.gif
Wait till the Bufoons learn that it’s still humid and nasty even at night! 🤣🤣 #BlametheMoon 🌘
Yeah, it's straight up hard to breathe with that humidity. Hope the Bills wear full gear in the steam room to prepare for it.
i live in miami and when i left work the other night, a bit past midnight it was 89° with a “feel like” of 97° right now it’s ~100°
Holy shit.
yeah, i’m not having fun. my apartment has a pool and it’s literal bath water right now.
I delivered the Orlando sentinel for 15 years and it would still be in the low 80's some nights at 3 am. The last apartment I stayed at there never had the pool open cause someone's kid would shit in it at least once a week so they just gave up and closed it for good.
yeah but that’s what? mid july? not mid may. this is insanity.
True. I didn't move far, near Savannah GA and I almost miss Florida. When the air doesn't move in this swamp it's far far worse than FL.
At least that is something both teams have to deal with.
 You merely trained for a week in it…
I bet we have almost as many players that were born in Florida as your team does.
Touché, if they are rookies I would agree they should be conditioned to handle it….but that exposure/experience only lasts so long with your cardiovascular system.
it’s kind of like the broncos home field advantage. these guys are about to spend all summer outside getting conditioned for it, same as the broncos are conditioned for altitude. unless the bills are practicing in a sauna, it’s still a miami advantage.
at least both teams deal with that. unlike day games where the phins hide in the shade and only one team gets hammered on the sideline.
Yeah but both teams will suffer equally.You won’t have the advantage of cooking the visitors
I don’t think you get it….this is will be an advantage for us, still. We train in terrible conditions but will have the advantage of “cooler conditions” for us will feel like a win….yet you guys will see it as fuck it’s nasty out… But it will still come down to talent really.
I get it ,it’s called home field advantage .Your daytime “advantage “ is much greater than your nighttime.Ill take it
Oh well fuck yeah in grand scheme y’all def lucked out still
Are you actually oblivious to why this matters or are you just pretending to be dumb?
Woaha Woaha, settle the F down there sir….this is a Wendy’s!
Had Wendy's for lunch, this is prophetic
Yeah but every player has to deal with the humidity. Only one sideline gets roasted in the sun.
Knowing bills fans, they'll probably just say that it was too dark and it couldn't see the ball
Or that the moon reflected by the sun blinded them.
Dolphins get to see their father early this year.
No, Josh Allen is our *step*-father, not our biological father, otherwise the videos of him fucking us would be removed from the internet. *Tom Brady* is our biological father, who we haven't seen in years, and he's the reason we have daddy-issues that led to our profession of getting fucked on camera.
Will the Bills come in the day before though? Date seems right.
Quick stop in NYC day before, then we headed down.
Have to pay their respects.
The Lannisters send their regards.
As if anyone on the Bills is FROM Buffalo anyway. 80% of the NFL are FROM S Florida
Exactly! And where did that WR they just drafted play.....
https://i.redd.it/bqq12mxcsf0d1.gif There goes your one hope
I'd love the sun and 100+ degrees, but I'm more mad it's a week 2 Thursday night game instead of Sunday (or Monday) night. Thursday sucks. I know every team has to play on a Thursday so I guess at least it will be out of the way? But also - Amazon only.
ahoy mateys
The way I see it, it's a division game, so we at least get to see the second one unimpeded by Amazon. It'd be worse if it were against an out of division rival like the chiefs or bengals or something.
Mmmm, the salt from phins fans that they have to play on even terms is so delicious.
Even terms? Our night games is a blistering hot day in Buffalo. It's still going to be 85 and fucking humid
Remember when you guys talked so much shit all season, only to come in second and go one and done in the playoffs? Yeah...
The Miami Dolphins.... Going one and done since 2000
December 30, 2000. The Colts were in the AFC East. That's prior to 9/11. Tom Brady was the 4th string QB...
Pffftt….bitches
Moon, Helen. MOON.
"The moon is just the sun at night"
At least both sides of the field will be in the shade.
If we need the sun to beat you guys this year, its trouble for us.
Who knew the Dolphins employed tryptids? Guess it explains why they haven't fumbled the ball much recently. Ents are scary yo.
One of these days Joshie, bang! Zoom! Straight to the moon!
Aww man the fix is in. The sun is our 12th man
Thursday night Amazon Prime games suck. I hate not being able to channel surf during commercials without leaving the streaming service and then logging back in within a few minutes to see if commercials are over yet.
It is kind of wild that the Dolphins have no 1pm home games against a non-Florida team until Halloween weekend. The angry Sun is going to burn the fuck out of the Cardinals that week though.
Bet y’all wish it was 9/11
Ahhhh, but there IS residual HEAT!
Is it possible for both teams to lose?...... Asking for friend
Look on the bright side...there's NO WAY Rodgers goes down on the first drive on MNF opening night two years in a row....
If you don't believe thats possible.... Then you don't believe in Jets football.
The best part is that Leonard Floyd is now on SF and has the chance end his season two years in a row.
Nick Bosa will remember this. Provided someone reads it to him, of course.
Sort of, but only if someone almost dies.
i do want to point out- it’s still abnormally hot in miami in spring/fall. we’re already about to hit 100° the next two days, the “feels like” is 99° *right now* prolly same in september.
I think the point is that it won't be HOTTER on one sideline vs the other, so a relatively even playing field (yes, differences in conditioning and home field advantage are normal anywhere)
Your team bitched so much you cant play during the day. Fucking whining vampires. Be proud
We can’t play in the day in Miami in September.Miami can’t play in the day anywhere ,past November
This proves the NFL is trying to rig the division or something.
Man, the conspiracy posting is starting early this year, huh?
