The anticipation of the NFL schedule release is finally behind us, and one thing that jumps out at you with the Bills schedule is the difficulty. We'll get more into this later, but it seems the Bills have one of the toughest schedules to navigate every year. By season's end, they still find a way to take the division title and get into the playoffs, but it would be nice if they didn't have to work so hard to make it happen. Maybe they could be a little less banged up and rested headed into the playoffs.
The Bills open the season hosting the Arizona Cardinals in Week One, as Kyler Murray and rookie Marvin Harrison Jr., will be coming to One Bills Drive. As a fan, it'll be exciting to be one of the first to see MHJ on an NFL field, but he'll be a difficult test for a somewhat rebuilt secondary, along with the mobility of Murray, the Cardinals could give the Bills some fits, even though I have Buffalo coming away with a win.

Only because I will be there with my family, as we cheer on our Buffalo Bills. But enough about that, here are my five takeaways from the Buffalo Bills 2024 schedule.
