Sunday was supposed to be the fourth playoff meeting between the two teams and the first to be played in Buffalo’s intense winter weather.
The weather in this Bills vs Steelers game is going to be WILD.
According to WABC: “Buffalo and western New York could face dangerous blizzard-like conditions this weekend, setting the stage for what may be horrendous weather for the Bills playoff game against Pittsburgh.”… pic.twitter.com/WUMNOev31R

AccuWeather forecasts predicted a high of 24 degrees on Sunday, with winds gusting near 50 miles per hour.
Couple that with the predicted seven+ inches of snow at Highmark Stadium Sunday, and it set up for a disastrous afternoon for everyone involved.
As the AFC’s top seed, Baltimore could potentially face Pittsburgh for the second time in three weeks if the Steelers can pull the upset.
The Ravens could also be staring at another matchup with the Cleveland Browns if they’re able to defeat the Houston Texans on the road.
