10-24” of snow forecast between now and Monday afternoon. Temps? About 20 degrees WC would be zero or worse. Let’s play? Or back up the game until Tuesday.

Backing up the game further is unfair for the next round. Buffalo isn’t unfamiliar with those types of forecasts. They have the equipment to handle it the best out of probably any major city in the country based on how often this sort of thing happens. They’ll find a way. Even if that means shutting down the rest of the city to focus on the snow around the football game.

Shutting down the city for the football game is unfair to everybody.

Play it. The fans will show up and make it home. It's Buffalo, not Dallas.

NFL knows the risks associated with having January games in Buffalo.

No reason to push it back any further. The only reason they would consider it is if they thought they product would suffer like it did when the Patriots and Bills played and Mac Jones threw like 3 passes. The NFL does not want that again, which is probably why they moved it in the first place.

As long as they can show the game on TV and the product won’t be awful, they will play tomorrow.

The video from Sunday certainly justified moving to today though, not sure the game cameras could have followed the ball.

Testifying
I know they're building a new stadium and want it to be outdoors but at a minimum wouldn't it be nice to have a partial roof above some of the seats like Seattle did?
