The Bills are scheduled to play the Cleveland Browns this Sunday in Buffalo, but a severe snowstorm could lead to the NFL moving the location. Heavy lake-effect snow that could reach 4 feet is expected to bury western and northern New York including the city of Buffalo. The governor of New York has already declared a state of emergency for Buffalo.
As for what it could mean if the game is played in the snow, is a run-heavy game. Throwing in the cold and the snow is tough. Twitter has already started making jokes as to what the game would look like.

Several other locations are being looked at to play the game including Detroit, Philadelphia, and D.C. The NFL would likely want to avoid playing in Cleveland as that would give them home field advantage. A decision is likely to be made by Friday.
Forecasts calling for snow totals of 3-to-6 feet by Sunday in Buffalo, including possible “thundersnow.” Last time snow forced NFL to move a game out of Buffalo was 2014, when Jets and Bills played that Monday night in Detroit. NFL monitoring storm, talking to Bills and Browns.
