Depends on where the lake effect band sets up.  Strong winds a slam dunk for Sunday.  Snow amounts unknown at this time, per NWS

How strong? Because nucci just had somehting that said 20 MPH, which I can live with. Conditions like the 6-0 wind game in 2021? Issue.

I find his speeches so cringe and his constant F-bombs are forced and sounds kind of silly. The guy comes across as trying to fit in and be accepted by his players, maybe he works out or maybe he doesn’t but I came away more appreciative of McDermott after watching, for whatever that’s worth.

Let's hope not.  Baltimore had 150 yards rushing in that game, we had 32.  

 

Don't see that being a winning formula on Sunday.  Pittsburgh also has much better skill position players than the Ravens had then.  

 

Pittsburgh may be a better team than most realize.  They're 10-7 in a battle hardened division.

My ludicrous roster/personnel usage take of the day, which will make you say "Logic's an idiot":

I think Leonard Fournette should get an equal snap (and usage) share with Cook. Perhaps even be the primary ball carrier.

Cook has fumbled (or nearly fumbled) just enough to make me a bit nervous about the wet/snowy conditions this Sunday, plus he hasn't been super effective running the ball as of late.

Cook has fumbled four times this season across 237 carries, which equates to one fumble per 59 carries.

Fournette, meanwhile, has fumbled four times in his entire CAREER, spanning 1,144 carries, which equates to one fumble per 286 carries.

Fournette also has that "I don't wanna tackle this dude on a 19 degree night" build and power.

Give me more Playoff Lenny and less Cook this week.

I disagree. I think the Bills figured it out in the second half of Dolphins game. If defense stops Steelers running game then Bills will win

True.  I think Huntley had like 50-60 of those yards in garbage time though, after Lamar went down with the concussion and we were up 17-3!  (Could be wrong though)

Steelers have a lot more options than the Ravens had.

Nothing like the NE "wind" game but certainly enough to cause issues, especially when you add lake effect snow in with it.  I am guessing 20-25 sustained with gusts higher during snow squalls.

@NWSBUFFALO is a good follow on twitter for the latest.

I don't think that's a bad idea at all.

If some fans want to worry, then they can worry.  Some fans hope for a win, some worry about a loss.

 

Imagine how much crazier this board would be if the Bengals beat the Steelers 3 weeks ago.

The Bills would be hosting the Bengals.  This place would be insane with gloom and doom.

I get your point, but it's not like the Bills have been a juggernaut this year, or in past playoff appearances.

Most seem to be looking at it objectively, hoping for the best, ready to cheer their brains out, hoping that "the stars align" while hoping for fandemonium in Buffalo throughout the month of February.

Michael Irvin and Richard Sherman on their show with Skip think the Bills are a flimsy #2 seed and Pittsburgh will be super physical and punch us in the mouth.  I guess that means the Bills D and Oline won't be physical and will get pushed around all game.  Okay.

Are the Bills having some outdoor practice in the stadium on some of these windy days?  They should, at least for portions of it..

I’ve seen too much from the Bills this season and believe this game will come down to the last possession. Predicting a Bills win but it will be close.

Well, is quite possible that we are a "flimsy #2 seed." We'll find out on Sunday.

 

The Steelers are in the toughest division in the league with three teams in the playoffs and the fourth only eliminated in week 18.  Two of their teams running with backup QBs.  

 

The Steelers are a physical, not a finesse, team.  They're only one game worse than us with a tougher schedule.
