Steelers/Chiefs moved to 8:20pm Sunday night

Dammit. Hosting 25 Costa Rican exchange students for a party at 6:30. Hope they like football.

There is a joke here somewhere.

Not the baby seal killing club.

Sucks!

But my guess is they could be worried about a power outage during the game... which would REALLY suck!

I hope the wind dies down by game time. Ben likes to throw the ball down the field, and wind can affect those throws. Smith's throws are so close to the LOS that the wind does not matter much.

Damnit! Well this ruins my brunch to game routine I'm used to. I'll have to adjust and come up with a new game plan.

 

[awboatguy]

I read it was to give the local authorities more time to clear the roads to allow for fans to drive safely to the game. 1305 or 2020 it doesn't matter. Either way we have to dominate early and often to ensure KC is playing from behind all night until the final whistle.

[Troglodyte]

So... does the later game time help or hurt the visiting team?

IMO it gives Chiefs the advantage of a louder, more hostile home field. Hopefully not a lot of Chiefs fans go to the game because of the weather. The field will most likely be pretty muddy, I think that favors us.

Steeler's are 9-3 during Sunday Night Football

I am happy for the change. I was supposed to go to a bowling tournament with squad times of 1 and 3 and was debating what to do. Now I can go to either and /or both and not worry. Plus Sundays are sometimes hectic w/ 2 kids and a gf hard to watch the game in peace during the day. As for the Steelers I dont think it will effect them much, but I am sure they will not want to be humiliated on national prime time TV so I am hoping it gives them a bit more edge.

Positives... bens ankle has several more hours to heal..

Negatives... primetime games arent our fortay these days

The field should be fine. they will have the tarp over it probably until after the storm is over. I'd say around 3-4:00 they will take it off. now if it goes longer, it could get pretty ugly.

Damn this sucks.

Cant stand waiting all day Sunday for a game.

Looking at the forecast, looks like it might be raining all night.

 

[Devildoghellcat]

but they will have all day to clear roads and the storm could be passed by 8

i think the freezing rain will be there till 1-2 pm saw earlier
