Heinz field is reportedly being considered as a possible alternate site for the Bills Jets game that was scheduled for Sunday in Buffalo. Due to the snowpocalypse, playing the game in Buffalo doesn’t seem like a reasonable possibility.
NFL source to @nypost: Among contingencies NFL is considering for #Jets #Bills is moving game to Mon at neutral site: Det, Pitt or Wash

Bills coaches are preparing with the belief that the game vs. Jets will be moved to Monday night in Detroit, Pittsburgh or Washington.

The only reason to even mention Pittsburgh is the fact that the Steelers have this week off. After four high school games and the Pitt football game Saturday, the plan is to re-sod the field, which needs a week to set. I would say that Pittsburgh would be an absolute last resort, with Detroit being the most logical alternative.
