Allow me to remind you of an historical proverb. One that’s related for the turbulent instances that we’re in:
MAN WHEN WE PLAYED IN THAT COLD WEATHER WE WAS COLD.

It’s that point once more, that point of the 12 months the place soccer is being performed in extraordinarily frigid climate and the vibes can be extraordinarily excessive on TV. Week 16 is developing, and the climate exterior absolutely is frightful. Games are going to be performed within the coldest climate conceivable, and it most likely will snow as properly.
The present estimates for the “looks like” temperature at kickoff of among the out of doors video games this Saturday:
– Bills at Bears: -11°
– Seahawks at Chiefs: -6°
– Saints at Browns: -9°
– Texans at Titans: 5°
– Falcons at Ravens: 7°
– Raiders at Steelers: -4°

Yeesh.
I can’t even think about enjoying in any climate under freezing, not to mention a sport performed within the negatives. Mike McDaniel would possibly say that the chilly doesn’t actually hassle him however let’s be actual: -11 levels is so chilly even the Abominable Snowman will really feel a little bit bit chilly. It’ll be attention-grabbing to see how different groups put together for the chilly, particularly groups that don’t actually get chilly climate. The Texans play in a dome, and so do the Falcons. How will they put together for the upcoming wintry hell that’s 5-7 levels.
The Raiders may need it the worst, although. Going from a dome in Las Vegas to NEGATIVE FOUR DEGREES in Pittsburgh would possibly flip me into the Joker, and I’m unsure what it’ll do to different gamers.
It can be fairly enjoyable to see, although. Especially if it snows. Snow video games are an especially cool aesthetic and watching the snow video games provides an actual “NFL Films” sort of vibe.
Playing within the snow and truly residing in areas the place it snows and is extraordinarily chilly sucks although.
