We love snow football. We think all football games should be played in some sort of cold precipitation, because it reminds us of one time of the year schoolyard touch football games turned into tackle football games with no major injuries. (Also, grit and miserable fans.)
However, there is altogether too much snow in Eagles-Lions, which is apparently being played in 20,000 B.C.
SNOW ANGEL TD CELEBRATION
At one point, Ed Hochuli had to ask them to bring out the snowblowers since he couldn't see the goal line:
To play football, the ball needs to travel through the air. That requires the air not having things in it. Also, sometimes the ball bounces. That requires the ground not being covered in powdery stuff.
This is what a kickoff looks like:
It sorta made football hard:
Two fumbled snaps by Matt Stafford in the first five plays for Detroit. Nice pace.

AWWWWW LOOK AT THEM PLAYING
FOX superimposed yard lines on the field:
Clear that spot!

IT'S EVEN MAKING MEGATRON MALFUNCTION 
Fans could make lil snowmen!
Time lapse:
"There's a lot of snow."
"HOW MUCH SNOW IS IT?!?!?!"
The parts of the field that people ran on got cleared off. The end zone, not so much:
Other games were also snowy, but not as snowy:

It made it easy to see how bad the Redskins were at offense:

ASA JACKSON DON'T CARE

Watching NFL RedZone was like having your TV flash between hi-def and standard, as the scene shifted from blizzards to normal, sunny days in Tampa Bay and whatnot.
