Big Turk Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 (edited) Looking like it could be a really fun game to watch on TV tomorrow...said should be impacting the game especially during the second half...

4_kidd_4 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 The cold and wind chill are the bigger issue for gametime, high of 30 w 25mph gusts. Lots of layers, folks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Seems like it would be perfect for a bigger back. Could this be the game where Tolbert breaks out? No, no probably not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually thinking for all the passes that would likely end up at a checkdown's shoe laces, the wind might carry the ball into their hands.

But then again the same pretty much goes for Brissett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjd1001 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 It LOOKS like right now the snow will be coming in from the south. Pre-game and at kickoff, light snow maybe...but should be getting a little harder as the game goes on. I don't think it will impact the game until the 2nd half at least, but it will make getting out of that stadium really fun after dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PABillsfan23 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 (edited) Buffalo has played poorly in bad weather games over the years. This is no advantage like it use to be. Edited December 10, 2017 by PABillsfan23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 At this point, it does look like the weather will be a bigger factor later in the game. 1-3 inches of snow during the afternoon. It the actual snowfall is at the lower end of that range, I don't think it will be a big deal. Three inches will make the footing pretty treacherous late in the game. I hope McDermott has been having the Bills practice in the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, I don't know how Peterman would handle a snow game He's not coming back next year and if we lose we're probably out of the race anyways. With more emphasis on the run because of the weather it's even more vital that Taylor plays. Bootlegs, the option, and the Wildcat should be part of the game plan.
