CBS Broadcast Of Patriots-Broncos Dissolves Into “Chaos” With “Players Disappearing” After Digital Failure In Snow Blizzard [VIDEO]
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

The snow had a huge effect on the Patriots-Broncos AFC Championship Game.
The second half of the game was as difficult for viewers as it was for the players. Hence, CBS tried to do something about it with digital lines… They did not help.
In fact, they made things even worse.
“CBS is going with digital yard lines in the snow, and that’s only leading to more chaos with players disappearing,” Awful Announcing pointed out.
You can see them in the clip below:
“Some fans have wanted to see the Patriots disappear for a long time,” someone joked in the comments.

The conditions have been absolutely brutal. The Patriots were fortunate to have entered the fourth quarter with a three-point lead, as neither team could get much offense going in the snow.
One mysterious man was dressed for it, however.
