Beast Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 The Bills can still throw. Heck, I remember the snow game against the Colts where it was some key passes that won the game. In fact, I give the Bills a big advantage if it is snow and not much wind. I’ll take Allen in those conditions any day over Brisette. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it is very windy, throwing the ball is highly effective as the WRs have the advantage of knowing where they are going and potential for big plays due to slipping and falling. We had quite a few snow games with the Kelly era Bills that were air raids. The wildcard playoff game against Miami for one. A 44-34 free for all in 1990 as I recall! 😅 And yes, both offenses didn’t stop throwing the ball—Kelly 3 TDs Edited November 15, 2022 by NoHuddleKelly12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still remember Reed on a crossing route going like 70 yards early in the game for a TD to give the Bills the lead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still early, but the wind looks around 15 MPH, but gusts up to 30 MPH, which could be an issue. Amazingly, the highest wind time of the entire week every week always seems to be around 1 PM on Sundays. It’s uncanny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they could run the ball, I would be less worried! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's far better than hurricanes, tornadoes, heat waves, etc. that other places deal with. I may be in the vast minority, but I believe Buffalo has some of the best weather in the country 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Brown vs Bills wouldn’t be Browns vs Bills without lake effect snow. 6 hours ago, Steptide said: Just what the bills need, a game where throwing is difficult and they need a good run game 🙄 Weather makes everything equal. Browns have a great run game but if throwing is completely out of the question then Bills just load up the box. The Bills will still throw the football. At least there will be the threat of throwing.

Makes it easier to load the box. The fear I would have is Chub breaking one at some point though. I could see 30 carries and we stuff 28, but he breaks a couple.

Wacka Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 This week is the 8th anniversary of Snovember. The lake is at 54, a record for this date. The conditions are all lining up for a ton. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always tell people happy when it’s 70 in November that warm at this time isn’t great because we can get slammed with lake effect if a storm comes through.
