What channel is the Bills game on? How to watch Buffalo Bills vs Seattle Seahawks

ORCHARD PARK - For the first time since he became the lead NFL analyst for FOX, former Buffalo Bills arch-nemesis Tom Brady will be on the call Sunday for their game in Seattle against the Seahawks.

Obviously, this will probably be a tough listen for Bills fans who will never forget the torture Brady inflicted on Buffalo during his career as he won 33 of the 36 starts he made against the Bills, 35 of those with the New England Patriots and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, during which he threw for 9,032 yards and 72 touchdowns.

The silver lining is that Brady can talk all he wants about the Bills, but he can’t do any damage or influence the outcome of the game from the broadcast booth. Instead, that will fall to a potent Seahawks passing game orchestrated by Geno Smith, a player who is enjoying a career renaissance at the age of 34.

Smith already has three games of at least 300 passing yards this season and a fourth Sunday would tie him with Matt Hasselbeck for the most in Seahawks’ history in a single season. He leads the league with 1,985 passing yards, and Bills coach Sean McDermott knows his defense will be put to the test.

“It’s funny because he’s been around the league like I have, and we just haven’t faced each other a ton,” McDermott said. “But a ton of respect for his game and the way he’s just developed over the years and the staying power that he’s shown, it’s very impressive. Again, being out there the last few years, we haven’t played them, but very impressed by his level of play, by the way he has command of their offense, and they do what I would say is some high-level stuff on offense.”

Of course, not to be outdone is a Buffalo passing game led by Josh Allen who has been outstanding the last two weeks, and now has another week of practice under his belt working with new wide receiver Amari Cooper.
