So we are at a disadvantage at home??? Tua will be good for multiple turnovers. My instruction to our young DL is just stick your arms up every play. The kid is Flutie height and doesn’t move much. Batted and tipped balls galore. People are still not over the pats wind game I think lol a windy/snowy game hurts Miami much more than us imo. Tuas throws have no zip on them…their whole offense is lobbing passes and hoping tyreek or waddle run under them Edited December 12, 2022 by Generic_Bills_Fan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He definitely has more experience with frozen precipitation than Tua though. I have heard from unreliable sources on this board that weather in Buffalo does not favor Bills. Maybe they think that because it does not affect them being full of hot air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the miami game I've seen this strange bit on here about how people want a snowstorm to 'get back at miami' that seems to have unhinged people who forgot we lost a game in the snow to a QB who attempted 3 passes. People seem more interested in this strange weather 'revenge' than winning the game. If the Dolphins want to only attempt 3 passes all game that would be a dream come true. Two completely different offenses Pats vs. Dolphins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DapperCam Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I think Allen throws just fine in snow and light wind. It’s probably an advantage against most teams because of his strong arm. Think of Mac against the Bills in the playoffs last year. Our offense doesn’t do well in the rain or heavy wind, so hopefully those conditions stay away. If we could run the ball maybe things would be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

par73 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I agree that bad weather is not a plus for the Bills--- they are more of a fast track team. As far as Miami, Tua has struggled the last two games and Hill has an ankle issue. Hope it is a nice, dry field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franco_92 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I think a lot of you guys are wrong. Joe Marino did a big breakdown showing that while the Bills offense suffers statistically in bad weather, the opponent in those same games declines fairly significantly worse from their baseline than the Bills. And the Dolphins are even more pass-reliant than we are, with a worse run game and a noodle arm qb with small hands. Bad weather hurts Miami more than buffalo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad weather was an advantage with Tyrod, I guess. Being used to the sh#t vs. being an advantage are not the same. Why? Because the Kelly years weather wasn’t a problem as much. Doesn’t mean latter teams will be the same. This current team to me certainly seems to have trouble in this weather. Like you said, a good running game would help.

I want some cold but that is it. After watching the Bills home games the past few years, and the dismal, often brutal weather game after game, I gringe when we play at home. No dome in a city with this horrible weather is absurd. Blew it 50 years ago, and Buffalo is doing it again. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are too many fundamentally different conditions (free agency, offense rules, safety). We locked up the top 3 QB for 6 yrs. JA is our competitive advantage, a shame to waste in punt-fest weather. Henry would be a better fit for our stadium but a bad fit for today’s NFL.

Big Turk Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) Uh Oh...WGRZ Meteorologist Patrick Hammer sounding the alarm for things coming together to support LES this weekend...still too early for locations/amounts/timing but this could be interesting... From NOAA Buffalo: "Heading into the weekend, the air mass aloft will become cold enough (model 850mb temperatures range from -10 to -14) to support a lake response. Model guidance packages from 11/00Z, 11/12Z, and 12/00Z continue to support unidirectional vertical wind profile in the lower levels along with the cold temperatures aloft to support lake snows east/northeast of both lakes. Despite the model continuity, this event remains in the farthest reaches of the forecast and therefore the mesoscale features are yet to be well represented this far out. But as of right now, there is high potential for lake effect snow east and northeast of both lakes Erie and Ontario Saturday through Sunday."

zow2 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Oh jeez, some of the weather apps are still showing only 1-3" on Sat night and winds 10-20. That's not terrible.

Those apps/national weather are pointless when it comes to LES and predicting amounts. NWS Buffalo/local meteorologists who are familiar with how it works and what they should be looking at are the only ones to listen to regarding this. NOAA Buffalo/NWS Buffalo will give the best info this far out. Edited December 12, 2022 by Big Turk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just a little bitter. i wonder aout this. I thnk, and stress think, the visiting team gets the same equipment as the home team. So i think because Miami does use misters etc in their shaded half of the field, vistors cannot as well in full out sun. If that is the case, and its a big if, i wonder if that would be an advantage to the Bills to forgo heaters and just use those big ass full length jackets. I mean the Dolphins had heaters going last night and it was 55, imagine what they would do with no heaters in 25? One would figure Bills a bit more acclimated to it at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
