12/17/22 Week 15 Gameday Bills vs Dolphins PreGame Thread

[sven233]

Not looking for style points tonight.... just a win.  If the Dolphins were to somehow find a way to win this game in this weather, we'll never hear the end of it. 

 

Just get a W tonight by any means necessary.  Go Bills!

I wonder if its to late to resign Shady for this snow game.  He was a beast the last snow game in Buffalo.

 

I dunno but if I were Kelly Skipper, I would 100% want to pick his brain about how he did it. 

 

Everybody else's ass sliding all over the field and McCoy runs and cuts like there's nothing but green field all around him.

Dang On NFLN they just showed what I assume is a live shot of the inside of the stadium.  Looked like they were putting snow on the field into a bunch of bit plastic containers which I guess they have to haul through the tunnel and dump somewhere.  I remember one of the articles for new stadium saying the ability to remove and dump snow will be much improved there.

 

A big thing is that the seats were untouched - with a lot of snow on them.  A lot of work still to be done to get the inside ready

Likely low on the priority list.

Instead of playing on your toes, you try to play more on your heels.

Sounds counterintuitive, but it actually works to some degree.

Did the snow band turn north? Looking at the radar and it looks like there's nothing over orchard Park (right now)

I believe so.  The reports were it was going to drift north and then back south later in the day if I remember correctly.

I think I heard someone interview McCoy and he said he didn't try to do anything differently.  The interviewer was like "c'mon man!" and he was like "honestly, I just run"  Apparently he had such fantastic balance that he could just compensate for all the little slips and slides. 

 

Or maybe part of his secret for cutting like he did, was that he used his whole foot more to cut routinely?

 

Micah Hyde said when it's deep enough that they're blowing the yard lines clear and there's a depth change between them, that's something to look out for.
