Tonight’s Thursday Night Football premiere on Prime Video is gonna be wild after the absolute nail-biters both the Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions pulled off in Week 1. These teams are coming in hot, but with some serious questions about how they close out games.

Bills Unveil Their Snowy Fortress

The Bills are rolling into their first home game having survived a 36-31 shootout win against the vaunted Houston Texans defense. Josh Allen was leading the charge, and now they get to unveil the newly built Highmark Stadium! No retractable roof on this bad boy, so when that Western New York snow inevitably hits, it’s gonna be right there on the field. Good news for the fans though: the roof overhang design should keep the stands from getting too wild.

Detroit’s Wild Week 1 Escape Act

Then you got the Lions, who somehow walked away with a 31-30 overtime victory against the New Orleans Saints after blowing a massive 21-0 lead at home. Jahmyr Gibbs had a big day, but they literally had to stop a game-winning two-point conversion just to preserve the win. Talk about living on the edge!

You gotta tune in at 5:15 pm PT. After those Week 1 performances, anything could happen when these two teams clash in Buffalo!
