PRO FOOTBALL SPOTLIGHT : L.A. Benched / Week 15

At 1 p.m. Sunday it was 73 degrees with 0% chance of precipitation and 0% chance of pro football in Los Angeles.

* After beating the Rams, 45-27, the Bills could not immediately return home because a winter storm dumped two feet of snow on Buffalo. Now if the Rams were still an L.A. team, the Bills could have enjoyed our sunny weather.

* Much was made of Al Davis’ claim that having the Raiders play before a full house in Oakland was worth a field goal, maybe even a touchdown. Has that proven to be true? After 14 games, the Raiders (8-6) have the identical record they did in 1994. The Raiders have lost their last three home games.
