The amount of games played in absolutely adverse weather each season isn't worth the expense of a dome. It's really for fan comfort. PSE didn't want to kick in for the extra comfort.

Expand That’s BS imo. Weather is the great equalizer in football. Every bad team Josh Allen faces hopes the weather is terrible.

So weaker teams need to plan to use it to their advantage (see: Bills v NE 2021). The wind equalized the offenses by taking away the passing advantage of the Bills.

Expand Which weakens your highest paid players on offense. It’s just a fact. Last year’s Buffalo weather was probably the worst weather I can remember. I don’t think it’ll be that bad every year but when you have a $40+ million QB and $20+ million WR you want to see them do what they do best. It’s not hand off and block. 1 1

julian Posted September 16, 2022 Posted September 16, 2022 Drew Brees played in more ideal conditions than any QB in history and sports ridiculous stats to show for it, on the other hand with that big advantage he only has one championship

ColoradoBills Posted September 16, 2022 Posted September 16, 2022 The more Josh plays in the Buffalo elements, the better he will get at working within them. It will become a big advantage, especially with QBs like Herbert and Tua coming to town.

So like SoFi stadium? Open air, out of the elements but still ambient temperature. That might be a good compromise. I was at SoFi last week in conditions that were probably about the warmest it will ever be at that stadium. No A/C in the stadium but honestly it wasn't that bad. It was warm but nothing you couldn't handle for three hours.
