Old Man Winter can huff and puff, but the Steelers-Bills Wild Card game is going nowhere.

Apocalyptic blizzard conditions are projected for the Buffalo area on Sunday. So bad is the forecast, that, according to WGRZ, up to 7 inches of snow is expected along with heavy winds and, obviously, extreme cold.

“We are monitoring conditions as we do for every game, but there have been no discussions about making a change to the game’s status,” Brian McCarthy, the NFL’s vice president of communications, told the station.

Speculation that the game could be moved to Cleveland began earlier in the week when Marty Griffin of Pittsburgh’s KDKA told listeners that he had been tipped off that the game could be moved.

“My boys work at the stadium in Cleveland, got a phone call to get ready,” Griffin said. “I was told this, just saying.”

A move would not be without precedent. In 2022, a Bills-Browns game was moved to Detroit due to weather concerns.

However, as the NFL says, that ain’t going to happen.

As the New York Post reports, the expected extreme weather is impacting betting. The over/under for the game dropped from 43 to 35 – an enormous drop – as the forecast worsened. While both the Bills and the Steelers rely heavily on their run games, one would think that an anticipated low-scoring contest would favor the Steelers, who are more limited offensively.

However, the Bills remain a 10-point favorite.
