What channel is the Bills game on? How to watch Buffalo Bills vs. Philadelphia Eagles
ORCHARD PARK - Growing up in Jamestown, even though Nick Sirianni wasn’t a Buffalo Bills fan - opting instead for the Pittsburgh Steelers - all he had to do was look around at the people in his hometown to know what Super Bowl disappointment looked like.
Sirianni was in grammar school when the Bills lost four consecutive Super Bowls in the early 1990s, and perhaps some of the heartbreak he witnessed back then helped prepare him for what he endured last February when the team he now coaches, the Philadelphia Eagles, lost Super Bowl 57 to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Since breaking into the NFL coaching ranks in 2009 with the Chiefs, and then during stints with the Chargers and Colts, Sirianni has coached in games against the Bills. But Sunday afternoon, the 42-year-old former football standout at Section VI’s Southwestern High School will face the Bills - the team many of his old pals back home still root for - for the first time as an NFL head coach when the Eagles host Buffalo in a game that is huge for both teams.

Of course the game will also be special for Bills head coach Sean McDermott. He grew up just outside Philadelphia and coached on the Eagles staff for 12 years under Andy Reid, but this will be the first time he will walk into Lincoln Financial Field as a head coach.
Not surprisingly, McDermott underplayed the whole going home angle. “Yeah, my home is here in Buffalo,” he said. “I appreciate that, but I live here in Buffalo. So (Philly’s) where my family is - my mom, my dad, my brother and his family. But home is in Buffalo for us.”
Sirianni’s team, now 9-1 which is the best record in the NFL, will look to stay ahead of the Cowboys in the NFC East and continue its push for the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoff bracket. McDermott’s Bills will be trying to continue their climb back into the AFC playoff chase on the heels of an impressive victory over the Jets.
