Will storm effect Bills practice this week?

[BuffaloBillyG]

Honestly with how banged up they are, having the week off from doing reps may not be terrible. I'd expect almost a third of the team to be "limited" at minimum anyways.

 

Not getting the reps in shouldn't be hard to adjust to. There are Im sure plans in place and there is some experience from the past with both weather and the COVID season. If practices are virtual, I would think they can hammer home the mental aspects and watch extra film as well.

2-3ft of new snow last night in the south towns and supposed to get hit again tonight into tomorrow.

How does the cold weather impact those Florida teams? This astute reporter wants to know.

The good news is weather looking perfect for the game 

 

It was great weather against the Squealers too. The problem is the stadium is so full of snow, it makes it hard to get around. There was at least 8-10 inches of snow under my feet that turned into hard packed ice by halftime. It was so uneven and slippery. There is no way they will be able to clear all that crap with another fresh two feet on top of it by Sunday. I've also never seen piles of snow inside the corridors. It was surreal to say the least.

I'm in South Cheektowaga. We got 12-15" easily since 11 PM last night. Traffic light is 4 doors away. Can't see it. Collision  shop is next to intersection.Can barely make out their  truck's flashing lights. Can't see the truck itself.

It's very difficult and dangerous to throw a football in 70 degrees climate-controlled conditions.

I get that a dome doesn't solve every issue, except one... You don't have to shovel it out

This is exactly what I told the guy that sits next to me. I said, all these people still complaining about not having a dome is beyond annoying. The game still woulda been changed if there were a dome. The only thing a dome would change, is that the seats woulda been clear of snow, once everyone could get there safely.

By this point you'd think the Bills would have a snow/practice plan.  guys that live far should be sheltered close to the facility...and there will be transportation for the guys that live close by in case they are unable to drive over themselves.

For all the guys needing treatment set up beds in the training room 😛

Put em up at the nearby OP hotels … rent rooms by the hour, bring your own sheets 😂

As we can see, clearing roads and lots are much easier than clearing seating areas.

A 2 Bill + franchise value with ‘Squirrel’ providing dog sled runs to the Stadium!

 

Josh trying to talk Cee Dee into joining the Bills after winning the Lombardi: 
 

“Dude… pluses of Buffalo? Let me start with Squirrel’s snowmobile runs through the blizzards to the stadium!” 

 

You can’t make this ***** up! LMFAO!

Who is Squirrel?

2 to 3 feet predicted, so a dusting!

 

 

I remember driving into Buffalo at night and pushing snow with my front bumper....  As long as its not blowing hard I agree just a dusting!

All the Bills need to do is put out the word that players need help getting to the stadium, and within half an hour they will be getting escorted from the DOT and PD.

Even in good weather, many people, I'm not sure who, other than team busses, get police and other "black suv" escorts every week. When I'm sitting in traffic on 20A (Big Tree Rd) every game day, two or three of these escorts go by. Not sure if it's officials, broadcasters, or who it might be. I've seen Pegula is his own vehicle before. So I'm not sure who, other than the away team is getting the special treatment. Maybe someone knows that could enlighten me.
