The wind picking up is a concern, but it could be much much worse.

I don't think weather will be a legitimate factor in the outcome.

Same thoughts here. And if wind is a factor I see it being more of an issue for the kicking game. All this worrying about the weather - mostly a non-issue at this point.

I pulled weather from Clink Stadium. Still showing NNE @ 3MPH at 6pm tonight.

Hourly Weather Forecast for 98134 - weather.com
Hourly Weather Forecast - Seattle, WA | Wunderground

The ZIP to Clink is 98134

Even NOAA is showing a 5 MPH wind around game time
NOAA National Weather Service

If the wind is going to pick up it will not be till much later in the evening.

The Brees blows into Clink around 5:40 PM :bng:

Wind?
Put Fartley in a typhoon with 100mph winds on an island in the pacific ocean and he's 9-10 from 45 yards or more in practice kicks.

Put Fartley in a controlled temperature, windless environment with perfect artificial grass, babes on the sidelines, and all the adderall he can muster and he shanks every other attempted kick.

These conditions will favor our kicker, and I'm not joking about that.

Just heard mid 30s with only 20% chance of rain and maybe sleet but should all be done by 2nd half.

Since its obvious he thrives under pressure maybe we can hire that "kicked in the nuts" dude for our home games.

If he misses... ooof!! Right in his friggin nuts.

Hows the weather ?

Comments I do not agree with. Comments we hear over and over again.:brood:

Comment 1
The New Orleans Saints are a domed team and they cannot play in the weather elements.:brood:

My answer.
The team plays in a domed stadium , but many of those guys grew up in harsh winters or played college football in harsh , winter weather states.
That comment makes it seem as if the Saints are 6 year olds who never saw snow.

Comment 2
The New Orleans Saints cannot win away from their home. :brood:
My answer.
We fans know they have won at the Dome. Lost at the Dome. Won in weather elements away from the dome. Lost away games. They have won and lost in great weather at away games.
Really.:help:

Comment 3
Can Drew Brees work in this kind of weather? How can Brees throw in that kind of weather?:brood:
My answer.
Is Purdue Univ. still in IN?
Did he attend Purdue Univ . or Univ of Miami or LSU?
Was the climate in IN like that of Houston, TX or N.O., LA while Brees was there?
Really ridiculous.

Comment 4:brood:
Is it a factor? Are they cold?
What will happen? WTH??

My answer.
Hey, heated warmers by the bench, thermals under uniforms, same as every other team. Saints will be ok and win. :D All 32 teams play games in rain, snow, hot, sleet, wind, hail, cold, damp, whatever the weather will be on game day.


And go:bng::love: Saints
