The Baltimore Ravens are set to face the Houston Texans in the AFC Divisional Playoff at M&T Bank Stadium. The game is expected to be played in frigid temperatures, with the kickoff temperature around 27 degrees and wind chill making it feel like 15 degrees. The windy conditions, with gusts reaching 15 mph, are likely to impact the game. The Ravens are favored by 9.5 points. Meanwhile, at Highmark Stadium, the Kansas City Chiefs will take on the Buffalo Bills in similarly cold conditions, with a temperature of 18 degrees and a 12mph wind. The stadium has been cleared of snow, unlike the previous week, and preparations are underway for the game.
Things finished up last night about midnight I’m told. Crews are still working throughout the stadium to continue to clear and clean other areas. For example now that the snow is gone, trash that’s been buried since Monday’s game needs to also be removed. https://t.co/1t6rGNpa8R
Here at Bills stadium where workers and fans have cleared multiple feet of snow from the stands and walkway. It’s just about all clear. So nothing like last week. Blowing tarp is the field being warmed underneath, I’m told. Bills/Chiefs here 6:30pm. https://t.co/AVPwVhtxtp
