The reigning Super Bowl champions face the Super Bowl favorites in a fantasy opening game of the 2022/23 NFL season. Josh Allen was sacked twice by Aaron Donald the last time they shared a field, in 2020, but the Bills QB got the last laugh.
And after a summer in which Von Miller switched LA for Buffalo and Andrew Whitworth hung up his shoulder pads for good, the Rams aren’t the team they were in February. Read on as we explain how to get a 2022 NFL Kickoff Game live stream and watch the Bills vs Rams online from anywhere.
We’re not saying they’re weaker than they were last season, but Sean McVay has sure lost a lot of talent and experience. On the plus side though, Matthew Stafford’s elbow seems to be on the mend, as does Jalen Ramsey’s shoulder. The real intrigue, however, surrounds Super Bowl MVP Cooper Kupp, who could spring out of the traps against a Bills team whose problem position is cornerback.
Allen had quite a day when the Bills beat the Rams 35-32 in 2020, throwing four touchdowns and an interception, and nearly costing his team the game. He’s come a long way since then, and if he manages to evade those monstrous arms of the Rams’ No.99, he could rack up serious scores both on his feet or by linking up with Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis.
The Bills had one of the meanest defenses in the NFL last season, and the addition of Miller makes them a frighting proposition. Nobody could have hoped for a better opening day matchup than this, so follow our guide on how to watch the 2022 NFL Kickoff Game online and get a Bills vs Rams live stream wherever you are.
