HomeTeam Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 Do you guys think we will get a snow game this year? Between the Chargers, Steelers and dolphins, that is our last chance to host a snow game unless of course we host a playoff game. I'm always a big fan of snow games. What are your thoughts? Do you guys like snow games? What about a snow game in the playoffs? I imagine that would be a disadvantage to the way this team is built in terms of its strengths.
BubbaT Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 With the passing offense we have, I don't want a snow game (or a wind game, or a rain game). 50 degrees, sunny, no wind, rain or snow will be fine 13

Given that our biggest advantage in all these games is Josh's arm I don't think snow would benefit us. Having said that, a snowy showdown (snowdown?) between the Bills and Steelers on SNF could be pretty epic. Two of the best uniforms in the sport on white-dappled green turf? Oh baby. 3

These guys are professionals and they know how to catch in a snow storm. In addition, they are now accustomed to playing in cold weather. With that being said, I want a snow game and would expect the Bills to perform in solid fashion. I only wish fans would be there. 3
Johnny Hammersticks Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 I’m cool if it’s cold and lightly snowing. Major snow accumulations are obviously not ideal. Also high winds are also not good for us.
EmotionallyUnstable Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 The Snovember game is one of my favorite bills memory. I was one of the 500,000 people at the game (I watched from my couch). I love me a good blizzard game, but would settle for some light winter weather 2 1

Mr. WEO Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 No team has an advantage in significantly snowy games
Simon Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 I'd love some wind and snow and think it would absolutely be an advantage for us. Considering how Allen's throws cut through wind and the fact that he played for years in Wyoming I think we could execute facets of our offense that other teams wouldn't be able to. Watching our corners be able to sit on routes while Allen is still able to sling 20 yrd outs gives us a decided advantage. 1
Bills fan since 87 Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 Snow bowl was the most fun and unique game I've ever attended. Especially beacuse it didnt really effect the tailgate. It really opened up around noon. I stayed to the very end so the ride home wasn't bad either as so many left early and the snow subsided a bit by then. But that 4 hours during the game? Never experienced anything like it. 2

I’d like to introduce the boys from South Beach to some holly jolly weather! ALWAYS fun to watch. As long as.......you know.......we WIN. 1 1

You must really love them! 😀 1

I'm pretty sure every QB that is worth anything in this league will be able to "cut through wind."

Temps are supposed to be well above normal on average for the winter here. Long range temp outlooks show temps between mid to upper 30s and 50s for highs into first week in December.
jkx2 Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 Snow games are the best. December 2002, Bills vs Dolphins. Sun out not a bad day. Ricky Williams breaks off two long TD runs on Miami's 1st 2 possessions. By the 3rd quarter Bills down 21-17 and not looking good. And if sent by God a lake effect snow storm rolled in. The place went crazy. Any Bills players with sleeves were having them torn off by other players. Jim Kelly was on the sidelines going nuts, steam rising from his head as he jumped in the crowd. The ENTIRE stadium was singing "Let it Snow" From the first flake on Miami never knew what hit them. The Bills steamed rolled them for 21 straight point as the Dolphins shivered by their heaters. It was an unbelieveable experience and the snow had everything to do with it. January 3rd I want Tua Tagovailoa in a sea of white.i doubt he's ever seen snow more or less played in it. He'll be crapping snow balls and it will be magical. 1 2
Fred Slacks Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 What about the season finale against the Dolphins? That would be a terrific option for God to throw down some snow on the “mighty Dolphins” lol. 1
