A sort of plus for us since we play there four days later on Thanksgiving. Less travel. Yes please.....Josh under a roof or retroroof: 251 passing ypg 17 passing TD's, 5 Rushing TD's, 6 INT's 111.3 passer rating 6-2 Great way to get out of a slump. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it is very windy, throwing the ball is highly effective as the WRs have the advantage of knowing where they are going and potential for big plays due to slipping and falling. We had quite a few snow games with the Kelly era Bills that were air raids. The wildcard playoff game against Miami for one. EXACTLY! Jim Brown only scored once here: The passing team won... In 1958!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fins couldn’t stop the passing game in the snow. That was the division round by the way. The next week was the 51-3 game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsatlastin2018 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 If the Bills haven’t already petitioned the NFL to bump this one until MNF, it’s another Billsy sign of the Apocalypse! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since1981 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 (edited) What a freakin mess. anything above about 18”/day is a problem, for even WNY. I’ll be shocked if the game isn’t moved to Detroit announcement THU at noon. Edited November 16, 2022 by Since1981 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a tough call to make before any snow has fallen. Could look pretty silly if the actual snowfall ends up being less than expected.

Toss in officials, TV crews, referees and fans and you can see why earlier is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I think it gets played at home, the worst of it supposed to be over by Saturday and the band is supposed to shift to the north. The biggest problem will be fans getting to the game, and players/officials....but it's not something that has never been done before. The actual weather over the stadium isn't supposed to be terrible on Sunday....basically windy and cold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
