They were looking for people to start shoveling 9 hours ago (12 midnight), but I don’t see any workers in the photo. And oh, they also said that they were going to limit the amount of shovelers to 200. Interesting... The limit is odd. Guess they don't want to blow their "$20 fan shoveling" budget on just one game <insert Terry is cheap joke here> 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrivefourfive Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Anyway the snow shovelers can score tix for their efforts? Maybe for next week then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I have a feeling this game is going to get chippy early. Steelers are going to want to try and out physical the Bills during the play and do some shoving after. And the Bills don't put up with that these days. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 @Milanos Milano I saw that video of you pounding beer and sliding down the snow converyor shirtless while shoveling!! Sending thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrivefourfive Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 What are everyone’s thoughts on the DLine that are active today? I think we can’t get enough big run stoppers out on that field. Why are the Steelers weapons worrying me all the sudden?! Pickens, Warren, Harris, Johnson, that TE, AB… Tell me they stink.. I’m in a spirallllllll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnycage46 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Even though it's only a day delay this game feels like it has taken an extra week to get here. Hopefully we come out locked in and play (relatively) mistake-free. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtimebillsfan Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) 9 hours ago, Chandler#81 said: 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. https://youtu.be/9SIMiBfO3eM?si=G8tJ8IMGV3Qct7i3 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! Just one comment regarding your first comment. The reason for moving the game to Monday was the result of the travel conditions not due to snow in the stadium. A dome would have made no difference. Thank you for your detailed post. Very much aporeciated. Edited January 15 by longtimebillsfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m in a spirallllllll Not having Watt is a huge blow for them. The Bills "SHOULD" have no problem moving the ball. Watt is not only a game changer himself but makes others around him better. If the Bills D can't contain a Mason Rudolph led offense, then they were never getting past Mahomes, Jackson anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, no Watt does calm me down. Last year, he didn’t play and we saw that result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
