Meh injuries happen, it would be nice to win this week and get the #1 seed rapped up if we can then we will have 3 weeks to get everyone fit

The Bills are on a roll and its about time they beat us so it wouldn`t suprise me TBH

My understanding was that the only weather condition that can cause a game to not be played is lightning? Roofs falling in etc are extenuating circumstances but this is an outdoor game.

They are going to make it hard for themsleves by moving it IMO, when it snows in the playoff games they will be knackered!!

What if it snows on Tuesday?

Next they will be saying us an Chicago should replay because it was played in a blizzard

Exactly. Or like some others have said. Why not play the game earlier if the storm isn't due until later? Yes it's inconvenient but at least it would get played. Makes a whole mockery of the NFL's previous claims that games are played in any conditions anywhere.

I get that there are concerns for safety etc but it's setting a dangerous precedent moving games for snow. There will be a fair few snow games over the next few weeks. When does the amount of snow become dangerous?

No idea, to be honest I think they just make it up as they go along. The Bears/Pats game was shocking I could barely see what was happening so I can`t imagine how hard/unsafe it was for the players.

It must be really bad to move a game thats all I can say
