We’d love to know what the Vikings did to piss off Mother Nature.

For the third straight week, the team that once prided itself on playing in the elements faces another weather-related complication. On the road in Philadelphia with a blizzard in the forecast, the Vikings may not be playing on Sunday night, after all.

espn_nfcnblog Issue in Philly is not if a game could be played in a blizzard. It's if the teams, stadium workers and fans can arrive safely at stadium.

AdamSchefter Philly Mayor Michael Nutter has announced that his city is declaring a snow emergency as of 2 pm today. He's urging residents to stay home.

Will NBC still show it? On the bright side no game will probably be more entertaing then the Bengals/Chargers crap that had been flexed out.

SI_PeterKing This postponement tonight, if the Weather Channel is right and the storm is fizzling, could be a horrible embarrassment for the NFL.

Yep.... A whole 5 inches of snow.

Yet a game in Foxboro has never been postponed due to snow.

I just wonder if this game is going to be broadcasted on national TV here...SNG had been shown this season, so I hope this change doesn't keep me from watching this one.

Philly is the dark horse of the NFC.
