This is not a trivia question. Has every NFL franchise played a game with snow falling during the game? When was each team's last game played that snow fell during the game?

Some memorable snow games:

Buffalo @ NY Jets 1973 - O.J. goes over the 2,000-yard rushing mark
Miami @ New England 1982 - snow plow game
LA Rams @ Chicago 1985 NFCCG
Miami @ Dallas 1993 Thanksgiving Leon Lett tries to pick up the football
Oakland @ New England 2002 - tuck rule game
Chicago @ Pittsburgh 2005 - when the weather's bad don't drive, take the Bus! Jerome Bettis' last 100-yard rushing game
San Diego @ Pittsburgh 2008 Polamalu's fingertip interception
Indianapolis @ Buffalo 2017
LA Rams @ Philadelphia - 2024 NFCCG

Arizona @ NE 45-7 in 2008, another team that didn’t want to get off the bus.

2003 AFC CG Indy at New England.

The Minnesota Vikings really gave up a huge potential home field advantage when they moved indoors 40 years ago.
 
Scroll through the photos on this reddit post for some snow games

 
I know USC hasn't played in the snow in 68 years, though I imagine their new conference affiliation will change that sooner or later.
 
Colts @ Bills 2017
 
Thus far, I haven't found anything for Arizona or New Orleans.

how far back you want to go for arizona? just since they've been in the south west? follow the lineage of the team, which traces it roots back to st louis and chicago...

as for new orleans, they've always been in a dome except for their first 8 years, so the question you need to answer to is did it ever snow during a saints game when they played at tulane... happy hunting on that one...

As far back as necessary for both.
 
The saints played the bills in Buffalo and won against Jim Kelley and Thurman Thomas 22-19 in the snow.
