They ran through the alphabet... Now it's Greek names. We have had a lot of named storms this year. Edited October 6, 2020 by TBBills
thronethinker Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 (edited) According to NOAA Hurricane Center it will be a depression with rain. Despite Media flair, a depression is not a Hurricane, nor is a tropical storm. Game will not be cancelled. There will likely be rain and it may be heavy at times.

uticaclub Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 Won’t the hurricane be nothing more than heavy rain by the time it reaches Tennessee?

A sloppy field is a great equalizer in terms of how it plays. Wind is even more a potential game factor. Drizzle is one thing and a downpour is quite another.
TigerJ Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 I'm expecting the game will take place. The wind will likely not reach severe levels. Conditions could be pretty miserable though. It may be important to get the ground game going.

CSBill Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 Well, based on the news out of Las Vegas today, COVID is winning again. Betting odds go to the virus over stein.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 8 hours ago, Special K said: I thought this game should be moved to Buffalo due the Covid situation. I don’t want the Bills anywhere near Tenn’s facilities or staff...who knows how many more are infected. I'm kind of going the opposite way. I don't want the Titans anywhere near our facilities or staff! I trust the Bills to have a methodical operations staff who will go in there and clean the place up, make it safe for our guys while staying safe themselves. 8 hours ago, PaattMaann said: All the weather sites I have checked say rain is done saturday evening. Even if it was raining and windy, why would they not play the football game there? Plenty of games have been played with rain and wind. But again, Accuweather, weather.gov (national weather service) both show nothing wrong with game day. Current forecast on weather.com is Sunday 74 degrees, 90% chance of rain, 1/2 inch of rain, 5-10 MPH winds. Is that the "nothing wrong" on Accuweather and weather.gov? (I agree that rain and 10 mph winds are not atypical for a fall football game and 74 degrees makes the rain more bearable) 1
Dr.Sack Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 Las Vegas & Nashville are the top two cities in terms of positive covid tests per 100,000 residents. Hopefully we fly in fly out & bring our lunch box.

I would imagine the Bills would send in their own crew to clean, disinfect, sanitize, and sterilize everything. Stay at a hotel and only show up for the game. Maybe get some mask for the face mask and make everyone wear a visor.

McBean Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 Quick, somebody call Jim Cantore and ask what to do for safety against 15 mph and rain.

We play in rain and breezy, that’s all it will be unless we get some freak lightning. Three decades of living in hurricane territory tell me that. Josh has the arm to deal with that......he was drafted for WNY. Edited October 7, 2020 by Augie 1
BillsfaninSB Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 I’m pretty locusts and the zombie apocalypse are also forecasted for this game.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 I love the idea of josh ripping it through torrential rain, grass field ... great test. Defense needs to show up this week
ColoradoBills Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 The rains will wash to Covid away. It's a good omen.
