Looks like rain but i really hope the temps drop a bit and we get some snow. Sayings low 40s and rain for the game.

I love this for KCs O. Hell i loved facing their O before the weather report

I don't see snow at all but the weather should add some vigor to a year old story.

I would lean towards rain changing to snow or snow, the weathermen should know by thursday, I'm going so I'm hoping for anything but a cold rain.

Brady lit it up in the rain vs the Colts ... not sure Brady even realizes rain is present.

Yeah, sometimes I think we tend to get excited about bad weather for no good reason.

The 2012 AFCCG comes to mind when all week long we heard how the heavy winds would definitely benefit the Pats. It didn't. It acted as a 12th defender for the Ravens, and we had the ball in FG position 7 times, only to come away with 13 total points. Of course, there was more to it than just that, but the weather certainly didn't "benefit" the Patriots by any stretch.

One could argue that freezing rain will help the team who can run the ball more effectively, which is something that I've been harping on for about 2 months now. The usual response? "We don't need to run the ball. Brady will just throw it for 50+ attempts." My concern is that it may not be possible due to any number of circumstances, and freezing rain could be one of them.

If it rains it will be a cold rain, definitely not passing weather.

I'm hoping for sunny, temps in the 60's, a light breeze and lots of young Patriots ladies displaying the team pride and joys...

I'm just hoping to avoid scenarios like the Cincy loss, where it was a very close, low-scoring game due to the constant downpour, and the offense just wasn't able to get anything going.

Another obvious scenario that comes to mind is the Oct.'14 close victory over the NYJ where Brady complained about the footballs being too big and "heavy" (as we know, they were, having come in around 16 PSI), which was partially due to the rain.

I think we need a good game from the defense, an improvement in the running balance, and hopefully--a hot start.

Feel free to share any experience that you may have, obviously including plenty of pics.

In that particular game, I don't think he realized the Colts were present.

I always have a bad feeling about rain for football games. I hope it's snow instead.
