Bills vs. 49ers: Video and images from the snow game in Buffalo

The Buffalo Bills are used to hosting high-stakes games in the snow. So, it might not be a surprise that they easily defeated the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night.

As snow fell throughout the game at Highmark Stadium, the Bills took down the 49ers, 35-10. With the win, Buffalo clinched its fifth straight AFC East title.

The temperature at kickoff was expected to be around 27 degrees, according to Fox Weather. The Orchard Park area has a lake effect snow warning until Monday at 7 p.m. ET.

Over the weekend, the Bills brought in hundreds of fans to help clear the stadium of snow, just as they did during last year’s playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Those fans “worked through the night,” to shovel more than 20 inches of snow, Bills VP of operations Andy Major told NBC News.

A few players seemed unfazed by the weather beforehand, including 49ers tight end George Kittle and Bills tight end Dawson Knox.

In a league of his own was Buffalo receiver Mack Hollins, who strolled into the stadium in a mad scientist outfit and his signature no-shoes look.
