corta765 Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 This is not a post to complain about our weather as much as just the fact I can't remember a season with so many games regularly played in legitimately crappy conditions. Figure: Steelers: Fine day Washington: Beautiful Day Texas: Downpour Dolphins: Overcast some rain Colts: Cold downpour Patriots: Gale force winds with snow Panthers: Snow Falcons: Heavy Snow & Cold Jets: Snow possible Sleet/Rain Does anyone remember a season that had as many bad weather weeks? 2 Quote

Yes pretty much every year in Buffalo since they've had a pro football franchise. 1 6 1 Quote
Gugny Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 I think it's time to start thinking about a dome. I'll get a thread/poll started. Stand by, please. 8 1 Quote

Tom Jolls would have worked a 'salubrious' into that somewhere. 🤨 1 1 Quote
HardyBoy Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 2019 was worse. You know, the year JA was awful throwing deep suddenly, and then 2020 mostly perfect weather and really solid deep game. Quote

The winds vs Washington were consistently 20 mph with gusts over 30 Remember the kickoff McKenzie misread because the wind absolutely knocked it down and WFT recovered it 3 Quote
gjv001 Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 I guess a domed stadium makes so much sense for WNY, that an open-air must be built. 1 Quote

GottaRun Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 I don't remember a worse all around year for weather in 18 years of having seasons. Quote
Ethan in Cleveland Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 I was at the Bills Raiders playoff game - coldest in franchise history. I was also at the Bills Arizona Cardinals game that was hit with insane winds. Those were the two worst home weather games I can recall until this year's New England home game. Bills Colts with Peterman at QB, KB at WR, and Shady scoring in OT has to be up there as well. 1 Quote

27yankees Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 I believe the Bills Jets game when OJ ran for 200 (+) was nasty that day. Quote
TH3 Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 I had seasons 91-93 - went to every game and the PO games - 20 games - can't remember a single bad weather game among them. 2 Quote

Bro...if you thought the Falcons game was heavy snow, I'm not sure what to tell you. Those were flurries. If you want to see heavy snow, be in Buffalo Wednesday night into Thursday when we get 12-18 inches. Edited January 4, 2022 by Big Turk 3 1 Quote

I could care less if it is cold as we are up north, but this year has been unseasonably heavy with strong weather be it wind, rain, or snow. 11 minutes ago, Big Turk said: Bro...if you thought the Falcons game was heavy snow, I'm not sure what to tell you.

It was a consistent factor in the game, the had the guys cleaning the field etc.. I have lived here my entire life I get it is not a foot of snow, but it still was a legit condition that had an impact. 52 minutes ago, HardyBoy said: 2019 was worse.

Broncos in November also was really nice. 2019 outside of the Eagles rain/wind game was actually a really nice year games wise. 1 1 Quote

Cardinals game was when the punter was hitting 10 and 12 yard punts into the wind that either went directly out of bounds or got caught up in the wind and went backwards 1 Quote
