The league has moved games to alternate stadiums because of weather before. In fact, there are plans in place this week to potentially move the Wild Card matchup between the Buffalo Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers to Cleveland because of the dangerous weather conditions heading to New York.

The league should consider doing the same in Kansas City. The Chiefs have worked hard this season to earn a home playoff game. The league should respect that. But putting players and fans in harm’s way due to extremely frosty temperatures crosses a line where the NFL should step in.
