    I'd rather the Browns win. One, I think Browns could take down Ravens next week if it comes to that. Two, I would personally rather face the Browns than the Texans next week if it comes to that.

    Yeah, the Texans and Stroud have the Cinderella story vibe imo. They look like an up and coming team that could make a surprise run. There seems to be one every season.

    Has that ever happened before? And it’s better to give people extra time to prepare than less. 

    I agree, I just mean I wish they could have moved it to Saturday earlier in the week. I knew that wasn’t going to happen later in the week. You can’t say “there’s a game tomorrow” on Friday. I was just talking from a personal non-government employee prospective about Monday.

    If Miami was Buffalo's opponent, for damn sure they would have found a way to get the game in as scheduled.

    The heard the chatter about Pittsburgh possibly being successful against them with their running game in the snow.

    I’ve been reading a lot on Twitter from Steelers and Dolphins like this. Many don’t seem very bright, this goes beyond the Bills. I’m glad they think the NFL wanted 4:30 Monday kickoff.

    I have a duffel I kept filled with gloves, hats, rain jacket, etc, so I was ready for any weather condition, even if it changed part way through the game.  I suppose I could do the same with a clear bag, but I could not carry as much. 

     

     

    Game would be over in enough time for the night game.  

     

     

    That's my thought also. The state could come out and say no fans, and I'm not sure why they have not done that yet.  

    Yeah, I don’t understand the mixed messages being given at this point. I’m not commenting on whether the game should happen, but how do declare a state of emergency without moving the game at the same time? Don’t declare the state of

    emergency in that case. The ironic part is the storm being on a weekend, the majority of “unnecessary” travel would be for the game. The rest of WNY wants to be home watching.

    It sounds like the real snow is supposed to start happening early this evening.

     

    At least the Steelers will be here so the game can be played one way or another.  

     

    The amount of snow forecast, 1-2 ft., isn't unmanageable although it'll make parking a PITA and who knows what they'll do with it inside the stadium.  Last season's Miami game had unremoved snow, but not that much of it.  I thought that was about the limit.  

     

    Not sure how much turnout they're going to get for $20/hour to shovel in those horrific conditions in sub-zero windchills, at night too.  If I were younger I might do it for $20/hr, a place to sleep, free food, and club level tix.  

     

    Anyone know if there are any live cams near the stadium?  

     

    You'd think they'd have one, they're not expensive.  

     

     

    The other issue with getting people to shovel is the fact that snow won’t be done at that time. Typically they are shoveling out the stadium after a storm. This will be in the middle of it. I’m not bothering driving out in the snow for a one off $20 hr gig.

    And they were probably driving ridiculously fast. If you are going 5mph in a lifted truck with chains as an emergency, you are fine. 

    Nope, the roads became impassable with zero visibility, and even tractor trailers get stuck. Plenty of truckers have terrifying blizzard stories. You’ve got a shtick going on this topic, and I respect it. I’m not trying to change your beliefs.
