Unless I hear it on WEEI, it doesn't matter.


😂

let me clarify my remark actually, I give jaguars <5% chance of winning. They'd need to play near perfect and Big Ben would have to have another multi-turnover game.

I would be pumped if it felt like 16 outside right now rofl. People put so much focus on the weather when it makes a lot less difference than they think. Aside from the condition of the field and the wind, the only other difference is how hard the ball becomes in the passing game. Not sure if you know this yet, but Bortles isn't the best passer anyways.


Agreed.

Tennessee like every team in the NFL, has the ability to travel and train in horrible/cold conditions if they want to prepare for anything that might be different for them. That being said, this weather isn't nearly severe enough to make a noticeable difference in this game imo. Sure, it'll be cold, and the ball might be a bit harder to catch, but that'll be just as a big of a problem for us, as it is for them. We've had loads of problems with ball security, and guys like Cooks can't hang on t the fucking ball, regardless of the weather. If anything, the bad weather helps them, since their game-plan is almost assuredly a ground and pound type attack, while relying on their above average defense to keep the game low scoring and competitive. Like I said though, it won't really matter all that much. Unless it starts dumping snow or winds get fucking crazy, the game won't be all that different than if the weather was in the 30s or 40s.

In hindsight, Kansas City was experiencing unusually cold weather week when the Titans played there last saturday, so the Titans have a taste of cool weather football, still will be about 10* to 15* colder here in New England. Tennessee doesn't play a lot of football at this time of year lol, unlike us or the Steelers. I think it could be a factor for both teams, but it gives us an advantage. (Winds are a steady 9 to 10 MPH all afternoon into the evening).

can't wait

I'm hyped like a mother fucker. Going to my favorite sportsbar with some friends/family to watch the game. Should be epic. Gotta collect my fantasy football winnings as well :P . It's always awkward going to the bar in this town, because I'm a pretty animated football viewer. Of course people don't mind that in Seattle, in fact, they love it.... when it's for Seattle lol. The dirty looks I get when I go fucking off cheering for NE are sometimes a little bit terrifying. The shit talk when we lose is also pretty fucking rough, but that's w/e, I can take people talking shit, it's just proof to me of how bitter these bastards are
