Another Crazy Rumor: Cleveland to Host Bills vs Steelers game?

I just read about this crazy rumor that the Bills vs Steelers game will be moved to Cleveland.

Reports clash over Bills-Steelers NFL playoff game moving to Cleveland (msn.com)

Click-Bait??? I don't know anything about Marty with the Pittsburgh media and KDKA. I thought KDKA was Steelers "YouTube" TV channel that I watch clips of with Charlie Batch.


Of course the NFL is denying that any such conversation took place with the people at Cleveland's Stadium.

I don't get it, as I keep hearing like 1.5 inches of snow in the morning for gameday.

 

If theirs any merit to this it would arguably be an advantage for the Steelers. Could be as many Steelers fans there as Buffalo. Unfortunately, this isn’t going to come to fruition…unless a monster sized blizzard was 100% certain to hit Buffalo, and even then…

 

I heard they were going to move the game a basketball arena and play 7 on 7 flag football with no pads. They will also mandate that the Steelers attend with cheerleaders. Halftime will be an Elvis impersonator.

 

flag football, no pads, Joey Porter Jr MVP of the game!!!!

 

Marty is an investigative journalist. He's kinda reliable in his specific craft. I'm not sure how he got this one wrong.

 

Non-issue. They made the same plans last year as well and the years before when there was a possibility.

It's just like Both teams making hotel and flight reservations before the conference championship or divisional rounds.

You plan ahead, so that you're not stuck if there's a problem.

Of course they deny it! It's always some outrage when stuff like this gets out, even though it makes perfect logistical sense to set-up before anything happens.

 

Funny thing about this time of year in that area. It's like winter.

 

Interesting... Moats points out that it is usually Detroit that gets the Bills game, if their weather is too bad, but this year Detroit is hosting a playoff game.

 

Yea, which is why if it actually was thought of getting moved, Indy made the most sense. Why play the game in a city where weather could play a factor when the game could've just been left in Buffalo?
