It was 30 and overcast with no precipitation and wind under 10 MPH that day.

The weather had nothing to do with it.

Baltimore is also a cold weather team...so this excuse doesn't hold water....

I remember the wind having a huge effect on both passing games.

I also remember the Bills holding one of the most electric offences to 3 points, the defence actually out scored the Ravens….

Like I said, unpopular opinion.

I’m also not going to convince a fan base that will obviously be biased towards their own team.

Carry on

Peyton Manning’s Colts disagree.

Brutal Special teams, defence and being a “soft” dome team led the Best QB of all time to have a sub 500 playoff record

so the weather affected both offenses then, or just one?

Its not like the bills had an "an electric offense" with the MVP runner up at QB.

The Bills also had a defence that allowed 472 yards of offence in the wild card game the week before to a washed up Phillip Rivers.

Deep down you know I’m right, the wind effected both teams but definitely benefitted the Bills defensive game plan and slowing down Lamar.

The Ravens had the secondary and front 7 to get after Allen, and they did.

New year, new teams, C’est La Vie.

Look what Lamar did to the Broncos last Sunday when they sold out to stop the run in 75 degree weather and sun shine.

Ah so the weather only affected the Ravens and the weather stopped whenever the bills had the ball.

Buffalo gets no credit for any of it and gameplanning to stop Lamar.

103 Pick 6, not Lamar throwing a bad ball, just the weather making the Ravens making a bad play.

Center snapping the ball over Lamars head 3 times, just chalk it up to the weather.

All the weather.

Bills should probably just forefit teh rest of the season, aint no way they can win on their own, need the weather to help them.

Drew Brees’ Saints also agree with Peyton Manning’s Colts.

Look at those playoff records while two of the greatest QB’s to walk the earth walked in to out door stadiums with their soft dome teams and didn’t know how to operate without being able to sling the ball 30 times a game in perfect conditions.

peyton got to 2 super bowls with denver though

either the team wants it and overcomes or they don't

I doubt if the bills had a dome, and had to go on the road in Jan in bad weather, they would be tossing it in the dome for game week practice



and neither manning nor breeze had to play in -59 degree wind chill like fouts


I stand by my statement, that game almost 40 years ago was the last afc championship game aided by cold weather hurting a so cal team

Biron on TSN1050 talking why an Eichel trade is difficult to make: "If the Sabres were to trade Jack Eichel, they would need to get 8M-8.5M in return to be able to get above the cap floor, who is going to give up players that make up $8.5M so that the Sabres are cap compliant?"

Hyperbole to the max.

Weather effected both teams.

Weather was more of a disservice to the Ravens then it was the Bills, in my opinion.

I’m sure Sean McDermott would tell you the same thing. No fear of a passing attack beating you over the top makes more comfortable putting 8 men in the box.

This is my last comment on it, cry about it.

Well that the Lady who took over as Governor said there is absolutely No Way the Bill's are leaving WNY. Let's see how much upstate is willing to help.

NOTHING! Billionaires should build their own stuff. I love the Bills and the NFL is more interesting when you have the small market teams involved - especially our Bills - BUT, enough is enough! Build it your own damn selves!
