Week 10 is here, and we’ve got no time to waste! International games, snow games, games below freezing, and isolated rain showers in Florida?? Pure chaos this weekend! All kidding aside, this is looking to be one of the busier weather weekends we have had in a little while. I encourage you to take time, read through what the current outlook is, and stay on top of it as we go into the weekends. Flexibility is key, if you don’t like the way the weather is looking, be ready with an alternative!
Buckle up, it’s Week 10 time, baby!
International Game (Berlin)
Atlanta Falcons @ Indianapolis Colts
LOW impact. Expect mostly cloudy skies with a small chance of rain, but I’m not expecting anything worthwhile to fall. Light winds with temperatures in the upper-40s. No issues here, start all your studs.
Sunday Early Afternoon Games
New York Giants @ Chicago Bears
HIGH impact. Hey, welcome to Chicago in November! Currently looking at a good chance of a rain/snow mix, along with some fairly strong winds. Expect sustained winds in the low 20s with the occasional gust up into the low 30s. Also, it will be pretty cold with temperatures at game time sitting in the low-30s. All in all, it looks to be a bit of a mess. You have to downgrade most, if not all, of the pass-catching game here, along with the kicking game. Do a pre-game check on the weather on Sunday and be ready to flex!
Buffalo Bills @ Miami Dolphins
LOW impact. It is a nice time of year to be in South Florida. Mostly sunny skies, temperatures in the mid-80s, and light winds. There is a small chance of rain, but nothing to worry about. Start all your usual suspects.
Cleveland Browns @ New York Jets
HIGH impact. Another game with some issues. There will be fairly persistent rain throughout much of the game. I’m not seeing it let up at all until late in the 4th. Downgrade all your pass catchers, QBs, and kickers. One saving grace is that the winds won’t be too bad! Gotta find that silver lining. Temperatures will be in the low-60s throughout the game.
New England Patriots @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
LOW impact. Another Florida game, another game with no weather impacts. Mostly sunny skies, calm winds, and a small chance of rain (20%), sounds like great November football weather to me. Start all your usual players.
New Orleans Saints @ Carolina Panthers
LOW impact. This will be a nice afternoon for football. High temperatures in the mid-70s, light winds, and partly sunny skies. No issues here.
Sunday Late Afternoon Games
Arizona Cardinals @ Seattle Seahawks
MEDIUM impact. There will be some rain in and around the area, accompanied by strong winds in the upper teens, which may cause issues during the game. I don’t think it will be enough to bench your studs, but do a pre-game check and see how everything looks. Expect the game-time temperatures to be in the mid-50s.
Los Angeles Rams @ San Francisco 49ers
LOW Impact. Great conditions on tap for this game. No rain, winds in the single-digits, and temperatures in the upper-50s. No issues here, start your studs and enjoy the “GOOD WEATHER GAME OF THE WEEK!”.
Detroit Lions @ Washington Commanders
LOW Impact. There’s a small chance of rain during the game, but not enough to be really concerned about it. Winds will be a little stronger as well, currently looking at winds in the mid-teens. Game time temperatures will be in the lower-60s.
Monday Night Game
Philadelphia Eagles @ Green Bay Packers
MEDIUM impact. Is Lambeau the coldest place on earth on Monday Night? It will certainly feel like it. I don’t see any snow or significant winds, but expect those game-time temperatures to be below freezing. I’m sure most of the players will be fine, but this is the first significantly cold game we have had this year. Brr!
Best of luck to your team in the week ahead!
