A reporter wanted to know from Bucs coach Todd Bowles how he prepares his team for the cold in Detroit. The question, however, was a flop

The cold snap in the USA has been a big topic in the NFL since last week.

Icy temperatures are also expected again in Detroit on Sunday for the Divisional Round game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

However, players, coaches and spectators are not expected to freeze. This is because the game will take place in the fully covered Ford Field.

Bucs coach Todd Bowles was all the more surprised when he listened to a reporter’s question. She wanted to know whether he would prepare his team for the game in a special way due to the expected cold weather.

His puzzled but polite answer: “No, there’s nothing special planned. We’re playing in a hall. We’ll only be outside for 20 seconds when we get off the bus and go into the hall. “

Oh no… A reporter asked Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles about how the team is preparing to get acclimated to the weather in Detroit ahead of Sunday’s game.

The Miami Dolphins could only dream of this. They actually had to play in the Wild Card Round at the Kansas City Chiefs in an open stadium at minus 21 degrees Celsius – and suffered a 7:26 defeat.
