Nov 23, 2019 — Baton Rouge LA, high of 70.0 degrees
Nov 30, 2019 — Baton Rouge, LA, high of 82.0 degrees

Jan 13, 2020 — New Orleans LA, high of 70 degrees
All of the above was eyeballed from some charts, so it’s not a perfect analysis, but it didn’t look like the low got below 30 for any of those games. Most the December and January games were in domes as well.
Burrow was hurt last year before we got a chance to see how he plays in cold weather. Jamar Chase said in an interview a while back that he can’t remember playing in a cold game… yikes.
Any concerns the weather effects these twos production?
It could be a concern, yeah. This is by no means in-depth research, but I went and looked at offensive performance over the last 10 years across the league, before and after week 8. Offensive efficiency dropped across the board, save four or five teams. Cincinnati in particular has been awful after week 8 since 2011. Obviously injuries factor into this to some degree, but weather changes do as well.
Something to keep an eye on.
