Re: NFL could move Super Bowl XLVIII to Saturday or Monday if weather is frightful
One hypothetical thing that no one has talked about yet -- the "home" Super Bowl team (in this case, the NFC team) is given the choice of wearing their colored or white jerseys. Wearing white jerseys in a snowstorm, or a field with snow-covered sidelines and peripherals, could be a recipe for trouble with the passing game. In the recent Eagles/Lions game, you could see that Detroit was struggling with visibility, and having trouble seeing their own guys down the field in their white and silver unis. Much harder time of it than the Eagles were. And there's that famous Patroits/Titans game at Foxboro in a Nor-Easter blizzard, where the Titans wore all white, and the Patriots blew them out 59-0 -- Brady was heaving bombs downfield all day, in the snow, to the receivers in their bright red throwback jerseys.
