From Seattleweather.com Tonight...Windy...Snow...Heavy at Times especially west of puget sound. Snow accumulation of 3 to 6 inches except up to 12 inches west of puget sound. Lows in the 20s. East wind 15 to 20 mph increasing to 20 to 30 mph after midnight. Sunday...Snow at Times in the morning...Possibly mixing with or changing to freezing rain and sleet. Showers in the afternoon. Additional snow and possibly sleet accumulation of 1 to 3 inches. Highs in the lower to mid 30s. Breezy with south wind 15 to 25 mph Decreasing to 10 to 15 mph in the afternoon. looks like its going to be a lot of nasty sleet and rain....Think they will have a lot of the snow cleared off by gametime....Would rather have snow then sleet/rain
I can see us moving the chains with plenty of ball-control... Jones up the middle and Leon outside, mixing it up with a short-range passing attack also. I expect Keller and Washington to come up big tomorrow. Keller has sure hands and Leon can make guys miss on a dry field. Tomorrow should be a piece of cake for him.
I think slippery field conditions will hurt Leons effectiveness. Guys who use a lot of jukes can't real do that in slippery conditions. North/South guys tend to be more valuable in those conditions.
This team plays like crap in bad weather conditions. (SF, Den games). Lets hope its just snow. We all saw how pathetic we are in rain....
Let's leave the double reverse pitch in the backfield out of the playbook this time, thank you very much. Gotta hold onto the damn pill.
I like watching snow games, and i hope some snow stays on the ground here in NYC until Thursday. Can't remember the last time we had a White Christmas here. There is a chance of snow here for Thursday, too!
It works both ways. Slippery conditions make LBs slower getting to the ball handler and half a juke sends them skidding to the side. No, Leon won't be able to cut as sharp as he usually does, but even half that will be just as effective, IMO.
Jets should adopt the PO's slogan. "Rain, Sleet, or Snow. We deliver!" __________________ Just deliver the win baby.........
i really dont see it being a big issue. i am fairly confident they will have the field covered until game time and if it will do nothing or rain a little i dont see it being a traction issue at all. these field turf fields dry up pretty quickly with the water management they put in them these days. oh wait thats right we play at 4 which would be 1 out there, for some reason i was thinking it was the night game. and then failed to realize its going to be 1 there when its 4 here anyway i am still not too worried about the snow as they will have had the field covered although the sleet/rain could make things a little bit treacherous especially with the field probably frozen like a brick before hand by the snow and cold temps! i wonder what the temps have been there over the last week or so, a frozen field with sleet on it could be pretty treacherous.
A lot of the game will rest on the defense. If they can get some stops and give the offense some good field position, the Jets will win the game.
Special teams will play a big part as well. If Hodges shanks some, we could be in trouble. We have to do a better coverage job in this game, too.
