Jets-Bills moved becasue of the snow

[Nightman]

Due to the effects of the snowstorm in Buffalo, the NFL is contemplating moving the game to either, FedEx Field in Landover, Ford Field in Detroit or MetLife Stadium which is the Jets home.    I think they should just move it to New Jersey, I'm surprised they didn't consider M&T Bank Stadium since there's nothing planned this Sunday anyway.  They have between Sunday and next Tuesday to announce a date.

Send the game down to FedEx.  That place could use an exciting game for once......

Really? Monday Night? I know we have been getting stiffed with not having a home MNF game but now we have to share the MNF spot? Ugh... damn you Mother Nature.

[Pats]

I like snow games though damn the league let them play there bah humbug to the weather.

I did hear something they were going to play in Detroit at Ford Field on Monday night, can anyone confirm this?

For the price of a Dream Seat in Landover, you can get a nosebleed one at M&T Bank on the resale market for a Ravens game and walk out knowing you got your money's worth.

Confirmed. It's been widely reported. I even just heard it on WBAL-TV.

And Buffalo is expecting another 2 - 3 feet of lake effect snow.  They are hiring trucks, tractors, and snow mobiles to go get the guys.... and if they can't "get them out"...  They will have to catch a flight first thing Monday morning. 

 

Didn't something like this happen to us once, and they moved the game to another week.... and it became our bye...   in place of our bye???  I think I remember that...  Unfortunately, I think these guys have had their byes....

[Moderator 3]

Yes, we had a game rescheduled due to a hurricane.

Bills are on their way to the airport with all players and coaches via bus.

Buffalo is worried the stadium won't be ready for next week when they host Cleveland.

That the stadium isn't ready could also be a good thing...  depending on how you look at it....

Yeah that was Hurricane Ike in 2008 hitting Houston in week 2 that year(so we still had the byes like you said)

From this area, its still around $300 round trip to Detroit for airfare plus hotel, so if you live in the Baltimore area, you'd still come out ahead buying the Ravens tickets.  The best deal on those is the Jaguars game on SeatGeek where there's still a few under face value.
