Chiefs-Dolphins could approach NFL record for coldest game. Bills-Steelers postponed due to snow
The wild-card playoff game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins on Saturday night at Arrowhead Stadium could approach the NFL record for the coldest game ever played
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins were set to play one of the coldest games in NFL history on Saturday night, yet that didn't stop hundreds of fans from lining up outside the parking lots of Arrowhead Stadium more than 12 hours before kickoff.
At least they made it to the stadium.
The NFL was concerned that nobody could make it Sunday in Buffalo, where up to a couple of feet of snow was expected overnight. So, the league and New York officials decided to postpone the Bills' wild-card playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers until Monday.
“We want our Bills to win,” Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz said at a news conference in suburban Buffalo, “but we don’t want 60,000 to 70,000 people traveling to the football game in what’s going to be horrible conditions.”
