Bad Weather?

[mex 65,581]

If it's cold, windy and rainy, which team has the edge?  Personally I think our defense has the edge in bad weather, but it could hurt our passing attack and somewhat negate our speed advantage. Thoughts?

i was at a game in KC last year vs Denver and Patrick threw the ball all over the field in a snowstorm, he even had a video clip of him saying he can spin it in any weather

I remember that... and I believe it's true.... but if it's windy it'll affect longer throws which is always our bread and butter

40's and cloudy ..wet before the game then the wet/wintery weather again goes through KC  after the game..a least that's what the Columbia weather idiots are saying

according to my weather app, it shows a 50% chance of rain, starting early am Sunday. the app stops at sunrise so it's not saying anything about game time

just give me calm... wet and calm is ok... dry and calm is better

Really windy conditions hurt both teams because regardless of how well you spin it, the wind will affect the ball.   Lucky for us we have Kelce and CEH if the game becomes a running and short-throw contest.   I do believe Mahomes is a little more accurate on short throws than Allen.   Should be a great game and I can only hope we do to them what we've done to every other team that the experts say will give us a hard time or make it difficult.....and that is boat race them.

Maybe the wind will blow some of Butker's extra point kicks back on line.

Patrick Mahomes could lead the Jets to a playoff win in a hurricane.

Seems like they should have done that earlier

Forecasts from AccuWeather and the National Weather Service call for 40-degree weather and showers during the day, with a chance of rain around kickoff. That rain could turn into sleet as the game progresses and temperatures drop. By the second half, it’s expected to feel like 25 degrees at Arrowhead Stadium with the windchill. If you’re one of the 17,000 or so fans planning on attending, be sure to bundle up and bring a rain poncho.

not super cold Arrowhead-wise... but still no conducive to a passing game

no real wind to speak of so that'll help but certainly a time for Williams to channel his inner Earl Campbell

 Radar shows nothing in Texas, Oklahoma ,Ks or Nebraska
