    We had 3 inches of snow on Saturday. Everyone posted "Beautiful" pictures on FB. I said let's all revisit this conversation in February.

    So everything that's a inconvenience for the Bills is changed???
    Heck wasn't it enough that they just changed playoffs overtime because they didn't win.
    Reminds me of every time the Manning led Colts lost a playoff game a new rule was added, or a old rule changed.

    Maybe the crybaby Chargers fan(s) can petition to have the 1981 AFCCG replayed in a dome. Can't have the players getting cold!

    I dont think it has anything to do with the 2 teams involved. Because of blizzard conditions, the governor has issued a state of emergency. Unnecessary travel will be restricted, road closures, airport closed. Why tax emergency services trying rescue spectators and working personnel traveling to and from a game. Outside of absolutely essential travel and emergency services, no one should be on the roads during a blizzard.

    I just looked at my weather app and its already snowing in Buffalo. Friday night, into Saturday morning, they are calling for 3" of snow per hour. Snow is supposed to continue until midday on Sunday

    Saw a plethora of people say the game should've been played in Buffalo. Like to see how it's possible to even bus the Browns to Buffalo with I90 likely closed and most other roads in the Buffalo region closed. This would've been a logistical nightmare.

    Yeah, most people are dumb. I think most just want to argue about something and fit their narrative. Ironically, most that hold that position, don't actually live in the area and aren't dealing with it.

    Or this so called plethora of people didn't know, and after found out about the blizzards changed their minds. :shrug:
    Unlike some, or a plethora of people...some people change their minds with more information, and have no trouble saying......My bad.

    Some maybe, I'm still watching arguments about softness (not spelling all the derogatory stuff out) on Twitter and Facebook and some NFL sites. At this point I'm just going with, they just want to argue with people.

    I mean Pat McAfee had his guy on that's traveling with the team talking about just getting the team out during a narrow window.

    Imagine the outrage if the Browns bus ended up in a ditch on I90 trying to get to Orchard Park. All of America would be demanding why the game wasn't moved. Busses can't manage well in a few inches of snow/ice. Imagine a bus trying to drive through 5 ft of snow. It's logically and logistically impossible. It would take them at least 12h to go what would normally take 2.5 hours.

    Just had a live stream on from a smaller plow driver trying to get home. He was hoping to get behind a State truck so he'd make it easier. People stuck everywhere and it was looking like the drifts were already 4-5 feet.
