NFL Playoffs 2024: Steelers vs Bills Postponed Amidst Winter Storm Following Governor’s Kathy Hochul Public Warning

It’s Josh Allen Vs. Mason Rudolph, it’s Mike Tomlin Vs. Sean McDermott, it’s the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. the Buffalo Bills! An exciting night of football was cut short because Nature decided to interfere with it in the most unwanted manner. New York Governor Kathy Hochul broke the sad news of the situation concerning the Steelers and the Bills game, witnessing the scenes on the ground.

Adam Schefter of ESPN posted an Instagram, and the post shows the exact conditions at the Highmark Stadium. However, the good news is the Kansas City Chiefs, and the Miami Dolphins game is still on the table, with circumstances hopefully not deteriorating for the clash to take place. Alas, we will have to wait for one of the most exciting wildcard games of the season a little more due to the intervention of the weather.

Pittsburgh Steelers Vs. Buffalo Bills Clash Rescheduled 

Per Adam Schefter, the Steelers-Bills game has been postponed to Monday at 4:30 PM ET due to a winter storm. His post on IG shows a photo of Highmark Stadium covered with snow all over, approximately depicting a higher expectation of snowfall further. The winds are at 25 mph while the wind gusts at 52 km/h and the weather at Highmark is around 24 °F as we speak.

Schefter’s IG post was captioned, “Now confirmed: Due to the winter storm, the Steelers-Bills wild-card game officially has been postponed to 4:30 ET on Monday.”. Naturally, people were anticipating this game and were excited about it, leading to them calling the NFL “too soft “for postponing the game.

While the people are disappointed in the changes that have been made, it looks to be the right decision to postpone the game because the fans attending the game might bear the brunt of bad weather, assessing the severity of the situation. Governor Hochul addressed the situation in a video on X.

More closure on the game at Highmark

New York Governor Kathy Hochul kept the Steelers fans in mind and advised them against traveling to the Bills stadium for this game. Action Network released the Public Service Announcement from the Governor in a post on X.

Hochul said, “One final bit of advice and this one’s for our friends who are thinking about travelling from Pittsburgh to watch the game. We think it’s just better if you stay home and tune in on television. It’ll be safer for all of us. It’s going to be a rough game for you anyhow.”

Per AccuWeather, the storm is expected to continue till Monday evening with 40-60 cm of snow and is expected to end by 17:00 on Monday.
