It appears the weather in Western New York was just a little too “wild” for NFL Wild Card Weekend, forcing the league to postpone Sunday’s showdown between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills to Monday afternoon.
High winds and lake-effect snow in the Orchard Park area quickly became a threat to public safety and state and league officials decided to move the game Saturday afternoon, with Monday’s forecast a little friendlier.
That sent shockwaves through the NFL odds, with sportsbooks having to adjust their numbers — markets that were bet into on the premise that game-day conditions would be extremely disruptive.
That left many bettors, who tried to factor the weather into their handicapping, holding tickets that didn’t reflect the forecast for Monday’s game. And depending on your sportsbooks’ house rules around these situations, many of those wagers are still in action.
All we can do now is look at what Mother Nature has left for Upstate New York and how Monday’s weather will impact your adjusted NFL picks. Here’s the latest betting weather report, with info you’ll need before making your Steelers vs. Bills picks.
