The Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills have a matchup in the playoffs on Monday after a nasty winter storm forced their game on Sunday to be postponed.
Due to the postponement, the Steelers haven’t traveled to Western New York as of Sunday morning.
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported the team would hold a team walkthrough on Sunday before flying to Buffalo at 3 p.m.
During a press conference Saturday, New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced the Bills game will now be played Monday as the area could face dangerous blizzard-like conditions. Hochul said snowfall rates of 2-3 inches per hour are anticipated and response teams are preparing for the “worst-case scenario.”
A state of emergency was issued Friday by the governor ahead of the potentially life-threatening conditions in the region.
The winner of the Pittsburgh Steelers-Buffalo Bills Super Wild Card Weekend showdown will be at a disadvantage for the divisional round as the winner will play on Sunday, which means a short week of preparation with a trip to the AFC title game at stake.
