Rubes Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 (edited) Saturday...looks like 25-35% chance of snow during the day, maybe 2-3 inches total. Cold, highs in the low 20s. Sunday...mostly cloudy, maintains a 25% chance of snow but probably no accumulation. Cold, high 25. Monday...cloudy, still a constant 25% chance of snow but again, probably no accumulation. High 30. Wind does not seem to be an issue throughout the weekend, at least for now. Consistently 5-10mph. EDIT: bolded the Saturday weather report since that's when we'll be playing.

I would hope they at least set it up so the team that advances from the MNF game plays the following Sunday in the Divisional Round. And plays the winner of a Sunday Wild Card game (else the other team would have an extra 2 days of rest). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 (edited) To be fair I'd think they should make the 4-5 game in one of the conferences the Monday night game. Assume everything goes chalk the 4-5 winner then plays the 1 seed the following week and they have the shortest prep time OK that's what they did do NFC 4-5 is Monday Edited January 10, 2022 by Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awwufelloff Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 First call American Model GFS European model keeps it south of us First call from Buffalo National weather service Saturday Snow likely. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 27. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Saturday Night Snow likely. Cloudy, with a low around 18. Chance of precipitation is 60%. This forecast will change a few times before now and then. I feel pretty confident that it will be quite chilly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetermansRedemption Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 As long as it isn’t 60MPH winds, I like the Bills chances. It took a once in ten years wind storm to let the patriots barely win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nextmanup Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Looks like temps will be in the 20s at game time and there is a decent chance of up to 3 inches of snow accumulating throughout the day. The weather will probably be pretty lousy for the game, but pray it isn't windy. The worse the weather the more Josh's advantage over Jones is eroded.

zow2 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 From a few different sources looks like the prediction is temps between 15-20, winds 10-15mph and possible snow showers accumulations less than an inch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 So far weather looks perfect for a cold calm snow game Saturday night. That's what fans love. As of now wind shouldn't be a problem. This has the makings of a beautiful night. We will see breaths. We will see steam coming off of lineman's heads. We will see Belichick hoody wrapped in a parka. Should be fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nextmanup Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 If its in the F-ing TEENS at game time, the weather will most certainly have an impact on the game. Jim Kelly was talking about this the other day. He knows a thing or two about trying to QB an NFL football team in Orchard Park, NY in bad weather. Ball gets too hard; it won't compress; hard to squeeze; hard to throw; hard to hold; hard to catch. We've probably all goofed around with a football in cold weather; the thing is like a brick. The kicking game will be greatly impacted too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall seeing Allen miss many open receivers yesterday though. He definitely missed Davis on the long ball. Allen can play better for sure. But I think most of our problems on O are due to a bad offensive coordinator/play caller, and an overrated WR group that struggles to get open or make plays. Regardless of how far we go this year, the offense needs some serious work in the off-season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they will keep balls warm when not in use, and switch them in after each possession. (That's alot of talk about balls in two sentences).
