I said that earlier in another thread. i’d be livid. I would demand playing Tua in a windy freezer environment.  

100% he’s toast

Interesting:

 

"The team is planning to use the visitors side of everything in Ford Field so that it is the same when they return for the game four days later."

 

Spying???

They just want to be able to leave some ***** there for a few days

As long as we win nobody’s going to care but Christ, do not lose this game now.

Funny how Dolphins games don't get moved due to heat though lol..

Ironic isn’t it.  Actually you bring up a great point. 

 

The heat doesn’t close roads and prevent people, ANY people, from getting to the stadium. This storm could do EXACTLY that, so they made the prudent decision. 

 

I don’t like it either, but I can appreciate how it was the intelligent thing to do.

Are they going to leave all the lion stuff on the field?

Interesting question. It would seem since they had the carnival Friday night and removing everything for that, that they would replace the turf likely with no  logos giving it more of a neutral theme?

In 2014, when the Bills "hosted" the Jets, they had the Bills logo at midfield, along with wordmarks in the endzones

 

Of course, they got new turf in 2019, so dunno if that would affect how easy/hard it is to remove/reapply before Thursday.

I’m just glad we have the game to look forward to on Sunday cause I know yesterday there was talk about canceling the whole deal altogether

Detroit being only 2.5 hrs from Cleveland and the fact that nobody will be able to get out of Buffalo on Saturday may make this a defacto home game for the Browns. 

 

Considering how many fill opposing stadiums with others from throughout the country I disagree.

And the Buffalo Bills are going to grow natural grass in the new Bills stadium with no roof in Buffalo in a snow belt Orchard Park? What a joke the NFL should require New York State to put a dome on the new Bills stadium if Buffalo wants to stay in the NFL. MLB required Phoenix to have a dome same for Las Vegas if they get the Oakland Athletics. Buffalo shouldn’t be allowed outdoor stadium anymore. This is the second game moved and two others should have been moved the weather was so bad the Indianapolis Colts game and the New England Patriots game. How is tailgating this weekend Bills Mafia I don’t want a dome what a joke the NFL made the decision Detroit which could cost this team a playoff spot just like the Bills Toronto Series playing extra road game in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

maybe they'll be able to contain him like they did henry earlier in the season. I know the defense has been banged up and had problems stopping the run since then but maybe they step up to the challenge sunday?

Contain is the key word. Stack the box, force Brissett to throw, blah blah blah. The usual. I hope they don’t go exclusively nickel.

How many games did New Orleans play in San Antonio after Hurricane Katrina?  Did the dome help them?

Bills beat themselves. All 3 games the same thing. They had a chance to make plays and finish those games multiple times and just didn't.

Yes, agreed. The Miami game wasn’t really beating themselves, they were beat by weather & injuries, but I hear u. It would take a collapse of epic epic proportions to lose this game. I have never been so confident in a W. I think we are going to see Buffalo play with a lot of anger.

By morons that don't understand that the in-game weather has no bearing on this decision.

Agreed, but also is still a good reason to have a dome. Stupid to live in a place that can get predictions of 3 to 6ft and not have a dome.

 

Is it smart to have primary vehicle be a convertible, because you hsve a garage lol

Talk about taking facts and twisting. 
New Oreans literally used the dome DURING the hurricane to save hundreds of lives.

They left 20-25 pts on the field that game. Missed FG, dropped TD by Davis, Allen turfing a wide open TD to McKenzie, etc.

Please explain how a dome would stop snow from falling all over Buffalo. Moving the game has nothing to do with the actual field or the stadium, why are so many people not understanding this??
