I'll take dry freezing climate any day of the week over cold, damp humid one. |

Many chances to Beat the Bears and Packers. The snow will be a factor but not the weather for The Hawks.

Re: Monday forecast in Seattle...

Re: Monday forecast in Seattle...
I don't expect the weather to be a factor. A little rain won't make an appreciable difference in the outcome of the game.
Whichever team takes better care of the ball on offense and on special teams, and whichever team controls the LOS should win. Like most games, this game will be decided in the trenches. Both QBs need time to deliver the ball down field and both QBs need a successful running game to take pressure off the other team's pass rush. Should be a helluva game... and I'll be there to take it all in. I bought tickets to attend only one game this year and this is the one that I chose back in September. |

Re: Monday forecast in Seattle...
In fact they did a study and from 2002-2006 when warm cities visited cold cities from week 1 to week 12 they won at an alarming 62% but from week 13 through week 17 warm weather teams won 20% of the time. So this is not a "Crock".
