Playoff Game Day - Weather

[WeezyBengal]

Early forecast looks like its going to be about 30-35 degrees with snow/rain showers on Saturday.

I honestly hate this. The passing game was really hitting it's stride and the weather might dictate how this game is played.

Just another reason to have a damn DOME on the next stadium.

Screw that, January Playoff football means pounding the ball on the ground, and we have one of the premiere running backs in the league.

A Raiders fan's perspective

gonna be cold and wet next Saturday, and the wind down the corridor from the lake can make it seem even colder.


does he think they are playing in Cleveland?

We also have a bottom ten running game in the league despite Joe's talents. Really, this weather forecast isn't that different than the Chiefs game, right? If the rain escapes us, we'll probably be fine. Joe has already showed he can handle cold.

Mixon gouged the Raiders the last time they played, hopefully he can do it again.
Carr will likely lean on Jacobs to do the same.

This game could come down to whose run defense holds up better.

Just be glad this team made the playoffs. If they're good enough they'll beat Oakland.

First cousin of the KC fan who though Cincinnati was firmly entrenched in Appalachia.

I don't think the weather favors one team over the other. Now if all 53 players are from Siberia, then your might have a point.
