NFL Insider Highlights The Brutal Conditions In Buffalo

The severe weather in Buffalo, New York still remains relentless ahead of the playoff clash between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills on Monday, which will be played ahead of the matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Even though the weather has let up a bit in Buffalo, it is still getting monitored in hopes of everything going to plan for Monday’s game.

Apparently, the biggest concern in Buffalo for the time being is making travel more accessible to Highmark Stadium, with the roads needing to be constantly plowed to make way for the expected traffic.

According to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network, “everything is still currently on schedule” for this playoff game, but in Buffalo, they’re still working to get the roads better, which seems to be the primary concern right now.

I’m told by Steelers official and players they have arrived to airport awaiting their 3pm flight to Buffalo for game tomorrow vs. Bills.

At this point, unless the weather takes a drastic turn for the worse, the first-round playoff showdown between the Bills and Steelers will go on as planned on Monday afternoon.

Even with all that has happened over the last few days, the Bills still remain the heavy favorites to get the best of the Steelers on Monday, with Buffalo simply being the better all-around football team right now, especially considering superstar linebacker T.J. Watt won’t be able to play in this game on the road.

Only time will tell if everything goes off without a hitch for this playoff game and whether the Steelers can unexpectedly put up a fight against the Bills on their home field.
