Generic_Bills_Fan Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) 18 minutes ago, RobbRiddick said: Just posted on Finheaven: If Miami was Buffalo's opponent, for damn sure they would have found a way to get the game in as scheduled. The heard the chatter about Pittsburgh possibly being successful against them with their running game in the snow. That last point always gets me….reminds me of when everyone talked up Cleveland that year the game got moved about how good their running game is yada yada then we ran them straight out of the building 😂. Pit is a stunningly mediocre team with an average oline and now that the game is moved they’re the 88 redskins and got screwed supposedly Edited January 13 by Generic_Bills_Fan 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't be our opponent when the horrible conditions we would have been playing in for this game render our offense useless and allow the Steelers to beat us in a digusting game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree with this. I think the Steelers have a better chance of winning if they can launch the ball deep to Pickens. I was totally fine with a bad weather game because they would have barely had a passing offense whereas ours could have scraped by. Now both teams are on equal playing field AND our divisional round opponent gets 8 days of rest versus 6 days of rest. It is a horrible outcome all around. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we lose tomorrow then it's our own fault. Difficult to imagine anyone saying we'd have won has we played in the siht that's coming. As it is it seems as if they're going to be hard pressed to remove all that snow before game time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrPJax Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I just wonder what effect this will have on the players who are creatures of habit. Remember how the delays in playing the titans during the epidemic resulted in a very flat , detached team getting blown out. Not a huge amount of confidence in mcd’s history of adapting the team to change , outside of the game played in Detroit, and that was a tight squeaker. Time will tell. Hard to believe they would allow the fins /kc game with wind chill predicted at minus 26 or below. That seems just as hazardous to fans/ players/ staff etc and the stadium will unlikely be filled. Very disjointed approach by the nfl and very subjective decision making regarding going ahead with individual games. It will carry over to the next week , especially if more injuries come into play and for the bills the likely opponent will already be a better team than who they play this week. Things just cant go smoothly with this team. It definitely adds another wrinkle to the mix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefan66 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Travel ban starting at 9pm tonight, being revisited at 6am Sunday. Had to move the game to accommodate the ban, specifically if it goes into late tomorrow as it probably will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait… so you think on a equal playing field, the Steelers stand a better chance at beating us? We won’t have Gabe, for whatever that’s worth.. and we’ll see about Douglas, but the Steelers weakness, especially without Watt, is defending a passing attack down the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say I disagreed with the decision. Don't put words in my mouth. I'm just annoyed that now the presumed outcome is we get the Chiefs on 8 days of rest and preparation while we get 6 days. That would of course happen the one time we finally get them in our stadium. Chiefs luck never runs out, just sick of it is all.

No one has been watching pit and has any idea how they’ve been winning. If you can load up against the run against them they can’t do diddly..their running game can’t stand on its own.

I dunno man, I think a Najee Harris/run dominated game in bad weather was easily their best path to success, which would have been forced by the weather. They can still do that of course but if we are able to pass normally in decent weather, and we get up a couple scores...more of the game goes to Rudolph. He's played nicely but 3 tds in four games isn't scaring anybody. The rest issue sucks, no polishing that turd.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) I wonder how this affects Pitt travel plans? Did they already leave for Buffalo, I'd guess not. Will they now stay home till Sunday, but then risk having a hard time getting to Buffalo, or will they fly in Monday morning? That creates an unusual travel plan which could mess with them. OK just read they are flying to Buffalo Sunday at 3:00 Edited January 13 by Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
