The NFL world will witness a mega clash this week between the two arch-rivals of the AFC East. Tua Tagovailoa will lock horns with Josh Allen for a blockbuster matchup of the season this Saturday. However, that is not the story that is catching the headlines. It is something uncontrollable and chilling; the snow in Buffalo. But it is not something to worry about for Miami Dolphins’ fans, as their QB seems unfazed.

The Bills are currently leading the AFC East tally with a season record of 10-3. Meanwhile, the Dolphins are just behind 8-5, and these two of the top playoff-contending teams will get to test the grit in a bone-chilling winter.

While speaking to the reporters, the Dolphins QB remained indifferent when questions about Buffalo’s weather started popping up. He mentioned that spending time in Alabama gave him enough experience playing in the snow. And certainly caring more about the weather conditions will distract him. “Could be snowing, cold rain, I don’t know,” Tagovailoa said. “It’s a mindset thing, really, and if I’m too focused and worried about, Is it too cold? Can I grab the ball or not? Then I’m focused on the wrong things, and it’ll be hard to play that way.” he added.

Further, while referencing his college days, he described the ways he tackled the snowy weather. “It snowed in Alabama my first year. So it snows in Alabama, guys. People don’t know that,” Tagovailoa said. Thus fair to say, the Dolphins are prepared this time. But the thing readers must understand is that the snow in Buffalo is not something that can be ruled out.

Thick smog and snow-clad fields have been a household picture for the past couple of weeks. Conditions are pretty tough. Even though Tagovailoa downplayed the weather, getting onto the field and rolling the ball will test their preparedness.

Fans warn Tua Tagovailoa of the circumstances

The game of football might seem to be an art of strength and persistence, but factors like wind and weather play a prominent role in the victory. Often home teams come out as the favorites to adapt to this changing weather. And in this case, the Bills fall under this bracket.

I think he'll be alright but comparing snowfall in Alabama to Buffalo is ridiculous

Tua hasn’t seen lake effect snow… ☠️

If it was just cold the Bills would be heavily favoured but with the amount of snow expected it will come down to the running game. Tua/Wilson Jr et al or Allen/Singletary et al?

Despite returning to the field after a terrible concussion, the third-year quarterback for the Dolphins has been phenomenal. It’s yet to be seen how he can maintain the performance against one of the mightiest offenses in this league.
