Snow and ice possible for TNF next week?

[JD10367]

Bad weather is always better for offenses. Your offense knows which way everyone’s going; the defense doesn’t. Harder for them to change direction without slipping and falling.

[chiefzilla1501]

I don't know. Rivers hasn't been bad in cold weather. Mahomes doesn't have the biggest of hands so I hope it doesn't affect his grip too much. Especially now when we're relying on our passing game more than ever. I think we'll be fine but I don't think it's a given that conditions fall in our favor.

Mahomes has strong hands and a good grip

Smaller hands but a better “grip” on the football than Rivers. He has immaculate ball handling and control of the ball, he can spin it like none other. It’s hard to explain.

He’ll be fine in cold weather, his “small hands” are an exception

[cmh6476]

Considerable cloudiness. Occasional rain showers in the afternoon. High 42F. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 40%.


Rain and snow showers in the evening transitioning to snow showers overnight. Low around 30F. Winds NNW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precip 40%. Snow accumulations less than one inch.


there is still a better chance of it not snowing or raining in Raytown Thursday than there is a chance :shrug:

He's been fine in some of the conditions so far. Cold weather doesn't appear to be an issue. Snow and ice is something totally different. I think he will be fine. But he hasn't been tested in his young career. Even a little slipperiness could take away a deep passing game which is a big part of our attack.

[ChiefsCountry]

Jesuits wont allow it to snow on the Chargers.

[Best22]

Romo had smaller hands than Mahomes and would’ve won in Green Bay if Dez could’ve caught that ball...

Kaep too, except he actually won in snowy Green Bay

'usually' snow storm predictions a week out, are rarely correct. Many times, they track more to the south and east as each day passes. Again, usually. Some do track north-but rare.

I have seen the European model hit better than the American model.

Chiefs have been taking shits on the opposition in cold weather at Arrowhead for five years under Reid.

There's a narrative being pushed...I've heard the following:

-The Chargers are the hottest team in the league right now. (They've won 3 in a row, barely beating CIN at "home".)
-The Chargers are built to beat the Chiefs. (Except they haven't beaten the Chiefs since 2013 and lost by 10 "at home" earlier this year.)
-Philip Rivers is so dangerous right now. (And Mahomes isn't?)

The narrative builds suspense, which I get. But I don't see any reason why the Chiefs don't wreck faces Thursday night.

Darrel Williams tweeted that he was just leaving the facility at 10am last night. This is going to be a quick quick week with long prep days. It's such a huge advantage for the chiefs to stay at home while SD travels. At least, I hope.

https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/football/players/situational-stats/2018/493041/philip-rivers/

CBS has a pretty good breakdown on cold weather performance. Keep in mind that Rivers' worst performances seem to come in years where he was at his overall worst. And I don't know if his good performances were vs shitty defenses. I think it at least shows he's been up and down in the cold - probably not as consistently bad as he want him to be, but probably also not him at his best.

Exactly, that cold rain kept our score to only 45 and less than 400yds passing.Ok, I haven't read through the thread, so I am not sure if this is part of a running joke, but it didn't rain during the Bengals game. It really wasn't even very cold. But it was pretty windy.

I sat in the upper deck, at the 40, four rows off the rail, and was in short sleeves until the 3rd quarter, and the only reason I put my hoodie on was because the wind started picking up at halftime.

I know a lot of football purists think that it should be played outside on natural grass, but I think that a dome with a roof that can open, and a field turf surface, enhance the experience for the fans in attendance, and the fans watching at home.

Teams that are in states that are warm and sunny year round can have natural grass, but most teams are painting dirt in November, December, and January, and it sucks.

Building a successful football team, where tremendous team speed is a major asset and a big reason the team wins, but choosing a field that is basically dead grass and dirt for half the season, negating the team's speed advantage, is just dumb.

I know a lot of football purists think that it should be played outside on natural grass, but I think that a dome with a roof that can open, and a field turf surface, enhance the experience for the fans in attendance, and the fans watching at home.

Teams that are in states that are warm and sunny year round can have natural grass, but most teams are painting dirt in November, December, and January, and it sucks.

Building a successful football team, where tremendous team speed is a major asset and a big reason the team wins, but choosing a field that is basically dead grass and dirt for half the season, negating the team's speed advantage, is just dumb.

Just getting a covering up over most of the fans resolves this. There are a few stadiums that do this.

Its not very often we have to deal with rain but when it does rain, it fucking sucks and is miserable. Doesn't destroy my fun but man it would be nice to not have to worry about rain.

38 degrees is not a bad temp to play at all

13 mph wind won't be too bad.

Lots of weather pussies in here.

Ok, I haven't read through the thread, so I am not sure if this is part of a running joke, but it didn't rain during the Bengals game. It really wasn't even very cold. But it was pretty windy.

I sat in the upper deck, at the 40, four rows off the rail, and was in short sleeves until the 3rd quarter, and the only reason I put my hoodie on was because the wind started picking up at halftime.

How often do the Colts, Texans, etc actually open the roof? They might as well be dome teams. No thanks

Always wrap up the D.

Remember when we wrecked the shit out of the Redskins in the snow? Didn't we win like 50-14 or something? It was awesome.<br /><br />

edit: yep, 45-10<br />

LMAO, look at their stadium at the start of the 3rd quarter!

I'm more interested in how it impacts rivers. Rain makes it tougher for both. I think wind gives us a real advantage. Mahomes' throws are basically wind proof.

Johnson County needs to get off its collective ass and pass a tax to put a retractable roof over Arrowhead!


Wait....

What?

Chance of rain has gone down according to google?

NWS says 37% is the highest chance with only about. 06 of accumulation. Winds gusting to 22.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Pat don't GAF and neither should you.

[007]

Yep just looks like a cold wind now.

[redfan]

Rain don't matter. Wind don't matter. Cold don't matter. PMII is all that matters. Well, that, and maybe a little run D.
