Buffalo offering to pay fans who help shovel snow in advance of Sunday's game:

It pays $20 per hour, Bills mafia! You just know some idiots are going to show up completely sauced with no shirts on.

Don’t forget the Zubaz pants!

Falcons and Giants are no longer taking interviews for coaches.

Read that how you will.

I’m guessing the Giants are sticking with Brian Daboll, as for Atlanta, either they found their hire, or will promote someone from within.

[Red Falcon]

The Patriots are such an unserious organization. See you in two years when he gets fired on Black Monday.

don't know about the Giants but I can't find any news saying the Falcons are done with coaching interviews, in fact their first wave alone which I believe they're still in the midst of had at least 7 different names. What I have seen and wonder if it's been misread is that they're blocking multiple coaches they still have under contract from interviewing which means they're not currently planning on replacing at least part of their staff

FLOWERY BRANCH — The Falcons are blocking some of their assistant coaches from interviewing for job opportunities while searching for a coach to replace Arthur Smith, a person familiar with the situation told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday.

I misread the wording, my bad.

Falcons are blocking THEIR coaches from interviews.

I just read an article that states the Kraft/Belichick relationship really started to sour after Tampa won the Superbowl. Bill had apparently been trying to replace Brady back when he drafted Garrapolo.

Now, trying to protect the team from an inevitable drop-off (even if one can push it back for a while, time always wins) is what a coach should do, but not to the point where they are effectively taking advice from Max Kellerman.

The Steelers Bills game has been postponed until 430 Monday.

The KC one is the one that needs postponing IMHO.

Just asked Alexa about the forecast in Kansas City tonight. Air temps will be minus 10 Fahrenheit, three degrees COLDER than during the infamous Ice Bowl in 1967.

[Jimbi]

To me, playing ball in a blizzard like that sounds like a great F'n time. Sad they postponed it.

Just gives the Dolphins fans reason to bitch. I have seen so many the NFL is stacked against us, they want the Chiefs to win Etc.. They are really being babies about it.

I never played in the snow (besides backyard ball which was a blast), but I thought it would have been cool. Rain and mud yeah, but not snow.

It isn’t about playing the game, rather the tens of thousands of fans who have to get to and from a stadium that has to be cleaned out and made habitable. Clearly, that wasn’t going to happen in time for Sunday’s original start time, thus the postponement.

You know what I heard, Philly? I heard the governor of NY is a Bills fan, and she declared this state of emergency as a way to help her team. What do you guys think of that theory?

I am not sure if this thread or the political thread is the appropriate place to post this information.
