Football Playing the Patriots, in New England, in sub-30 temps doesn't bode well for Peyton - Page 6

So, I'll start with the weather. The forecast for Sunday in New England shows a mostly clear night, HOWEVER, also predicts sub-30 temperatures, and sub-20 real-feel.

Peyton's stats for sub-30 temperature games are as follows;

8 games (7 full games), Manning is 2-5 (.400)
175-285 (61.4%), 1761 yards (6.2), 76.7 QB Rating
If we extend the temp to sub-32, his rating drops to about 70.

As for going up against Brady and the Patriots, Peyton is 4-9 vs Brady all-time, and 6-10 vs Bill Belichick all-time. Despite not being very good, those records aren't horrible either.

But, when playing in New England it gets a whole lot worse. When playing in New England (including playoffs), Peyton is 2-9, throwing more interceptions than touchdowns, and has only one game without an INT.

Look at this however you want, but combining the fact that Peyton is going into New England where he doesn't usually fair too well, and that it likely going to be well below freezing. This is looking to possibly be a good game.

Well hell, I guess this doom and gloom prediction turned out to be true. Funny thing is...the Super Bowl is being played outdoors in NYC in February this year. If this is truly an issue for Manning they are pretty much ****ed.

Yeah, I'm still amazed NY is hosting a Super Bowl in an outdoor stadium. Wasn't that the reason that KC couldn't host in 2015, the NFL said they needed a dome?

But yeah, if Denver actually does get to the big game, it wouldn't be too far fetched to look forward to a nice loss for them IMO, especially with some of the teams in the NFC.

Then again, it's not like any of the cold weather NFC teams are worth a damn this year. It could just end up being a shitty game. I really hope that Farmer's Almanac prediction comes true.

Actually yeah, now that you mention it, the NFC teams aren't great in the cold either. I heard somewhere that the NFC has about 8 teams with a domed stadium, where as the AFC only has 2.

At least that makes the AFC tougher as far as weather goes.
