Damn it! Just realized the dolphins play tomorrow. So if the football gods decide to keep testing us, and we lose today (could happen, playing in Armageddon weather, weird ***** will happen) we have to wait 24 more hours to see if we take the AFCE. 

Or we could just win. If anybody can throw in these conditions, Josh can; Chicago just put 2 of their CBs on IR, including their best one and two of their top Olinmen are out. Defense needs to maintain their rush lanes to contain fields and we have to protect the ball.

if so we win and it shouldn’t be close.

I know Chicago plays close games but 3 wins on the season is just that.

Maybe but I've gotten too old to attend games like this. I look back at the games at Rich that I attended...30 below WC..

 

I was kidding. I'm King Wuss. All in for a dome.

I just got off the phone with a friend in Chicago.

 

Apparently, the locusts have moved on and we are now in the water turning to blood phase.

And just to be clear, they’re not building it for the Bears.  They’re building it because unlike Buffalo, this is the only way they get a Super Bowl.

Not sure if you’re just being funny, but I think he actually might lol


Funny and serious, both.  Kelce had 4 TD receptions in a game where he had less than 25 total receiving yards earlier this year.

I'm just seeing there are a bunch of games today and only 3 tmrw? Is that a typo? I never heard of this. I thought it'd be like last Saturday 

Probably so most players can enjoy Christmas with their families on Sunday.

What time does the forecast indicate it will rain frogs?  That could influence the decision to defer if they win the toss.

I would expect the frogs some time after the flies and livestock pestilence phases have ended.

 

Probably around 3pm.

-19 . Wow. I really don't know how they do it.. Here in Jersey it's 8 degrees and feels like -7 and I abandoned my run because the wind just cut through me n I had layers on. 

And guys will be out there with bare arms!

 

Ross Tucker mentioned a few days ago that after games like this, you can't just get into a warm shower...it stings and hurts.

 

You have to acclimate your skin to cold water for a while, then gradually go up in temp.

 

It's nuts.

 

This game is approaching Stalingrad weather.

I heard a former player say they need to wait 30 45 min to take a shower after a gm like this. Nuts! I literally lasted 5 min out there lol

When I was younger, (the 90's younger) I thought it was cool to see the Bills in short sleeves trying to psych out the opponents. Now I think I am older and wiser. I think the best way to go is to wear clothes and be warm. No need to psych out an inferior team. GO BILLS!

Team should be acclimated to this weather right ?

 

Go Bills !!

It’s one thing to get acclimated to cold weather, quite another to get acclimated to subzero windchill temps. Because you can’t.

Currently 55 here... In my apartment.  Waiting for maintenance to fix the damn heat.

 

 You're looking at this all wrong. Don't think of it as it's only 55, think of it as it feels 74 degrees warmer in your apartment than it does in Chicago rn. Based on today's weather, that right there is a bona-fide heat wave.

Unfortunately for us in Florida, it means a Saturday NFL game isn’t being shown. Trying DofuSports stream today..

You're not going to get much sympathy from those of us here in Buffalo at the moment...I had to shovel a path for my dog to go out and pee.
