Rain/cold weather expected for Dolphins

That Denver game was the worst "football weather" I've ever experienced.

 

perfect. That always seems to be the environment during depressing home losses late in teh season

 

Pop an extra prozak this morning jonnyd.

 

I just hope that it becomes snowy rather than rainy. Rain sucks.

 

I feel like my dog got fucked up the ass by johnny English and then he died

 

I gotta agree with you on that one. I've been to almost 50 games now: snow, icy cold, 40-50 MPH winds, frigid temps, driving rain, blazing heat; you name the weather conditions and I've been to a game that had them....that game was the absolute worst. Freezing to the bone, and wet. No matter the amount of weather proof stuff and thermals that game sucked. I don't have tickets to this one, but whoever's going, bring your lungs.

 

The Denver game just gives me bad memories of that whole damn season..

 

I'll never forget, I was wearing a knit cap, poncho with hood, rain jacket with hood, columbia jacket, jersey, sweatshirt and turtle neck, rain pants, jeans, thermals, socks and rain boots.

My f@cking wallet inside my sweatshirt pocket was still wet, and I didn't break it out for the entire game.

The only thing better was driving home for 4+ hrs, reasonably soaked and getting stuck @ the GWB for at least an hour and a half.

 

Sanchez needs to have a good game one of these days in this type of weather. It's going to be a big problem if he keeps shitting the bed any time it's very cold.

 

Yeah....wow, I forgot about that. Made it even worse. It took over 2 hours just to get over the bridge. One of the worst ever. I go through the tunnel now and go through Manhattan because of that jam.

 

I spend half and some of the game standing in the bathroom because there was a heater in there. That was some shit weather not looking forward to repeat

 

that's far worse for the dolphins than it is us.

 

The dog or J.English?

 

I think he does worse in night games than in bad weather games. Anyone have the stats?

 

why would I be sad if it was J English

 

Someone posts this almost every home game--the Denver game was one of the worst all time. It's a little early to know what the weather is going to be. I'm cooking steaks this game so it better hold up long enough for that.

 

Their apparently goin be snow for the patriots game just sayin.

For his career: (not including dome games)

Temp 21-40 degrees: 3 gms, 48.5 rating, 2 td, 7 int

Temp 41-60 degrees: 8 gms, 64.8 rating, 10 td, 14 int

Temp 61-80 degrees: 7 gms, 71.4 rating, 6 td, 5 int

Over 80 degrees: 3 gms, 112.2 rating, 7 td, 0 int


9 games that were classified as "windy": 47.5 rating, 5 td, 7 int


It's too early in his career to really make a big deal over this, and I'm sure most qb's play well when it's warmer and not windy. But still.. maybe there is something to this.


on edit: There was no difference really between his day and night games. The big game against Miami at night this year probably helped those stats.

 

Rain in the mid to upper 40's is much better than just above freezing. Rain in the lower 30's is the worst weather to be outside in. Snow bounces off. Rain at those temps soaks into your bones.

The weather should in any event hurt Miami more, so revel in that.
