      Might get moved again. Winner at an extreme disadvantage playing next game on short week.

      The Pittsburgh Steelers-Buffalo Bills game could have more reschedules than just today's news. On the heels of their Wild Card game postponed from Sunday

        Hopefully the weather is better on Monday because I don't think anyone wants this getting moved to Tuesday, no thanks.

          They've known about this weather system for a while.

          If they were open to moving it, they should have moved it to today early in the week. Swapped one of the Sat games.

          Hope they don't do some other BS like put it on Disney+ or some other random streaming service.

            I have less of a problem with the game being postponed than I have with it being announced by, and in conjunction with, the governor of New York. Even if the league announced that due to a travel ban, fans won't be able to attend, and because of this WE have decided not to play in front of an empty stadium. It should not have been announced by a politician (of any party) as the NFL has to at least make it look like they are looking after the interests of the game and the players.

              Instead of a Toy Story game they can do it using characters from Ice Age.

                Well, we are on holiday Monday. It will be a long day waiting for 4:30.
                Help me find my post proving I am a Yinzer!

                I will tip my hat to Tomlin if he has a winning record and the team makes the play-offs in the upcoming season.

                    Kazora reporting that a Tuesday Kickoff is still in play, depending on how much snowfall and how cleanup efforts go. The winner is definitely going to be at a disadvantage the following week.

                    Didn't the NFL move a game to the Detroit dome one year because of weather?

                      They could move the divisional game to the following Monday night to help the winner of this one the following week, particularly if the game is played Tuesday of this week. A Monday Night Football game on prime time during the playoffs would be a big draw.

                            Politicians can't help trying to feel important.

                            Yesterday she said Steelers fans shouldn't come to the game because of the weather.

                            Having her say that than having her be the one postpone the game is a bad look imo.

                            Especially since they ayed a horrible weather game on schedule like 2 years ago.

                                My thought is just the opposite.

                                I'm not a democrat, and dont support her, BUT she did the responsible thing since Goodell wouldn't.

                                It's obvious that the NFL is a money hungry grabbing entity and lies through their teeth when it comes to supporting the fans. Like someone else said- they knew about this weather system since last Sunday when the times and games were announced. The KC game should've been the 1pm CBS game on Sunday, and the Steelers Bills game should've been the Monday night game. Simple as that.

                                When its reported that Peacock (NBC) paid 110 million to have the game, and Prime paid through the nose, for Thursday games, etc. NFL lost respect from me and many others.
