This is a lot of snow, even for Western New York. (@BuffaloBills)
Parts of the Buffalo area are under six feet of snow and more is expected in the days leading up to Sunday's Jets-Bills get-together. As it stands, the game is still a go but in order to make that happen, the Bills need your help.
Specifically: Can you shovel snow? Do you like football? How about money? Then you might want to dial this number:
Want to help clear the Ralph? We're looking for snow shovelers. Pay is $10/hour + game tickets. Call 716-636-4840 for details.

#Bills VP of Operations Andy Major: "We can't have too many people helping. We won't be turning anyone away"
— Buffalo Bills (@buffalobills) November 19, 2014The hope is to get 500 shovelers. Major said the plan is to shovel around the clock, which makes sense when you realize just how much snow needs to be removed.
Just how much snow needs to be removed? 220,000 TONS, enough to fill the @ADPROSports Complex 8 times over. pic.twitter.com/VtriPCGSMb

UPDATE: Colts RB Bradshaw (leg) placed on season ending IR
The Indianapolis Colts have placed RB Ahmad Bradshaw on season-ending IR today due to a fractured fibula suffered in Sunday's loss against the Patriots. The veteran RB is set to become a free agent in the offseason. The injury leaves the Colts' RB depth chart with RB Trent Richardson and RB Dan Herron.

Bradshaw, in his 8th season in the NFL, is 29 years old and has had a history of injury issues throughout his career. The news of him breaking his leg in the Week 11 loss not only puts the Colts' running game in question, but also Bradshaw's career. Until other updates surface, the veteran RB should be considered questionable for Week 1 2015.

Richardson has the talent to take on the challenge. Owners should stand behind the Alabama alumni as the Colts' playoff run may depend on it.Keep in mind that RB Ben Tate was released by the Cleveland Browns today. If the Colts' organization does not make a move on Tate it solidifies that they are all in on Richardson.RB Dan Herron, a career 3.6 YPC back, is a sleeper to keep an eye on if Tate is not signed. He has not shown that he is an upgrade over Richardson in his opportunities this season.
