1/15/24 Super WildCard Playoff GAMEDAY Bills vs Steelers Pregame Thread

PLAYOFFS BABY!

-OH, and Miami lost in KC 🤣

 

Don’t get me started on the ‘we don’t need a dome’ conversation! Yet again, the Bills had to re-schedule a game due to WNY Winter weather. 🙄 I guess we have to be thankful it’s still being played where we deserve and earned the right to play! Our 5 game winning streak to finish our wildly unpredictable season gifts us with a Home playoff game vs. the equally unexpected Steelers. They’ve won their last 3 games to punch their ticket on the final week of the regular season as well. The calendar says it’s still early winter, but we’re in the thick of winters’ meanness with tons of snow and wild winds that drop the ‘feels like’ to sub zero! Following our latest snowpocalpse, we should see milder winds today, which is great news for us.

While we escaped south Florida with hats & t-shirts, we didn’t escape the omnipresent injuries. ‘Big Game’ Gabe Davis and Taylor Rapp hobbled out of Miami and are no-go’s for today. Every team left have significant injuries -including Pittsburgh. So buckle the chinstraps and get after it with what you have!

 

 

Mike Tomlin is in town. Meaning Defense, solid STs and an excellent run game will be featured. Mason Rudolph has stepped in admirably for Kenny Pickett, being efficient while capable of connecting on long balls. WR’s Diontae Johnson and George Pickens can be scary good, so we have to be ready for everything! Tomlin & McDermott are long time friends and college teammates, so both teams can expect a few wrinkles and surprises. Even with the future HOFer TJ Watt out, Pittsburgh can generate a strong pass rush -as the Ravens learned last week. Add in a greedy Secondary and disrespect for being a double-digit underdog and they’ll be ready!

 

For our Hero’s, RaSUUUUL may play due to the postponement and we need him -as well as others who stepped up admirably last week at LB, DB, WR & OT. Imo, Khalil Shakir has earned WR2, both in production and trust with teammates. Our enigmatic WR Stefon Diggs played great last week and we’ll NEED him to again! I anticipate he’ll deliver. Sam Martin won AFCSTPOTM and Harty’s punt return thrilled us with the play of the game in Miami! Our OL, while no world beaters, are the only Line in the League to start every game! This in itself is remarkable! They’ve been the most important aspect in our philosophical change to commit to the Run game. They’re a solid group and could be even better next season.

 

Then, there’s Josh Allen.

 

One could argue he was the Dolphins best player last week. Until the game was on the line, that is. Our incredible Superman literally WILLED the Bills to victory! Yes, other players made important contributions, but they fed off Allen’s refuse to lose mantra!

‘Mr. Chaos’ told everybody in November he was back and he’s been delivering at an MVP level ever since! Winning is essential to him and his NO QUIT is why we’re in the playoffs and we should expect this to continue. And you KNOW what means!..

 

 

“4 MORE!”

 

WE GOTTA BELIEVE! 

 

GO BILLS!

  • Chandler#81 changed the title to 1/15/24 Super WildCard Playoff GAMEDAY Bills vs Steelers Pregame Thread

I must admit, the game being changed to 9:30pm on Monday really suits me. A day at work, food with the family then settle down to watch the Buffalo F******g Bills lay the smackdown on Pittsburgh. 

 

Enjoy the game, Bills fans. Wherever you are.

Happy Game Day (and MLK Day) TBD! Finally. . . . If you have to work today (like me), go and, as everybody's next Head Coach Jim Harbaugh says, "Attack the day with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind!" And if you are one of the lucky ones going to the game today (first, be safe), you attack your cheering "with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind!" The team needs you, we need you. As for our team, just win, baby, just win!

 

LET'S GO BUFFALO!!!

All things considered it sounds like a normal wintry day in WNY.  Nothing severe. Any Lake effect is supposed to drift north of Buffalo by afternoon.  Brisk and cold at 4:30pm kickoff, 17 degrees, winds SW at 13mph.

Looks like the snow will die down around noon?    What is the current wind forecast for the game hours?   Hoping footing and wind won’t be huge difference makers.  

light winds 10mph

Gonna be a ***** show around the stadium when it comes to parking. OP got another foot overnight. Presumably a good percentage of the private lots won't be open, so people arriving early to park in their usual non-official spots are going to find themselves in one big traffic jam.

 

OP police and the Bills are advising people to not show up too early.
