Matchups that got ruined by nature

Several NFL matchups led to cancellations and rescheduling due to the forces of nature. In 1989, the San Francisco 49ers managed to secure a quiver-free 31-27 victory over the New England Patriots at Stanford University’s Stanford Stadium. The rescheduled venue was a replacement for Candlestick Park which got damaged due to the Loma Prieta earthquake (the 6.9 killer earthquake). In 1992, Hurricane Andrew forced the rescheduling of the opening-day game between the New England Patriots and the Miami Dolphins. Moreover, in 2003 the Hurricane Fury continued, relocating the Chargers-Dolphins Monday Night Football game to Tempe, Arizona. Also, in 2004, Hurricane Ivan impacted the Titans-Dolphins and Steelers-Dolphins games, resulting in schedule changes.

Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma created havoc in 2005, forcing the New Orleans Saints to play home games elsewhere and advancing the Chiefs-Dolphins matchup. In 2008, Hurricane Ike led to the rescheduling of the Texans-Ravens game, affecting the Texans-Bengals matchup. The collapse of the Vikings’ stadium roof in 2010 due to a severe storm led to the relocation of games against the Giants and Bears. Hurricanes Harvey and Irma disrupted preseason and regular-season games in 2017 for the Cowboys-Texans and Dolphins-Buccaneers, respectively. Hurricane Ida led to the cancellation of the Cardinals-Saints preseason matchup in 2021, with subsequent changes to the Saints’ regular-season opener.

Adding to this list, the Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills had to relocate their Week 11 game in 2022 due to an impending snowstorm, shifting the matchup to Detroit’s Ford Field.

However, this upcoming matchup between the Jaguars and the Bengals can be the 11th matchup in this list. This story is building up.
