The Buffalo Bills had some serious issues with the snow in western New York this week ahead of facing the Detroit Lions in Week 15.
The Bills (10-3) and Lions (12-1) have no reason to worry about Sunday. The game will be held at Ford Field in Detroit which is a stadium with a dome.
Relating to Buffalo’s preparation for the contest, the team, as a whole, was limited in that department on Thursday.
The Bills announced the practice was canceled because of the large amount of snow that fell around Orchard Park:
Today’s practice has been canceled & the team is meeting virtually due to inclement weather.

On Friday, Buffalo head coach Sean McDermott revealed via video conference that about 90 percent of the team stayed home.
A travel ban ended up going into effect in Orchard Park and parts of western New York. The National Weather service reported wind gusts of up to 40 miles per hour. In addition, a whomping 30 inches of snow hit the area.
The Bills ended up sharing a view of Highmark Stadium from Thursday, which can be found below:
