According to the far out forecast, the high next Sunday is 19° and the low is around 13°.
Personally, I think this would be great. We know that Mahomes can sling it in those conditions, he proved it last year at Denver and today to some degree. Idk about Brady and Rivers though, as they are older and their arms aren’t quite what they used to be. Not saying they couldn’t throw it, but I think it could have a negative effect on them.
Thoughts?
Also, this from Pete Sweeney:

Welp, looking like an additional night of hotel for me. Makes much more sense to drive up Friday night after work in the rain than first thing Saturday morning in the snow. [Reply]

Keep in mind it's the wind that will be the big issue [Reply]

Just put one of those in each corner and fire it up the whole game.
We are in the corner on the same side but on the other end of the field, and we feel the heat blast whenever that thing goes off. I can only image how hot it must be for the people sitting by the tunnel. [Reply]
Wimps of the world, Canadians are laughing at us. Play the game. 50 years ago we couldn't go out and play football because one mommy wouldn't let her kids outside to play if it was below freezing.
19 degrees and snow over 33 degrees wins everytime.

A few tips I have learned over the years tailgating. Use charcoal not propane if the temp is less than 5 degrees. (propane does not flame well in a sub zero enviroment and cold chili sucks) Chili in a thermos is a good option.
Put your cold food in the cooler to keep it from freezing. ( I learned at the last Colts vs Chiefs playoff game... Crunchy potato salad and frozen Coke sucks.
Keep your insulated boots in the warm cab not in the pickup bed.
A small piece of carpet does work to stand on concrete.

Years ago.........
We left southeast Kansas for a game. Nice weather at home and figured out the Arrowhead forecast was for 35 degrees and rain. A WalMart stop for heavy duty trashbags and Duck tape. I looked like a funky arsed Sumo wrestler and was laughed at but...... The bathroom in the 2nd qtr was full of parked wet freezing red blooded Chiefs fans smoking cigarettes. I was toasty warm standing in the rain. The rain stopped in the third quarter and the trash bags left. My gear was dry and we went home happy with a win, listening to Kevin "oh baby what a play" Harlan. Life is good. [Reply]
