Boatdrinks Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Plays into the Bills favor? I think so No. Both teams have to play in it. It may cause problems with holding onto the ball, so it could cause the usually careful Bills to put the ball on the ground a few times. I always feel like inclement weather ( aside from high wind) favors the offfense. Defenders don't know where they are going, they are chasing. Bills already have an advantage in kicking, so I wouldn't say any great advantage is gained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 No. Both teams have to play in it. It may cause problems with holding onto the ball, so it could cause the usually careful Bills to put the ball on the ground a few times. I always feel like inclement weather ( aside from high wind) favors the offfense. Defenders don't know where they are going, they are chasing. Bills already have an advantage in kicking, so I wouldn't say any great advantage is gained. This. The offensive player knows when and where he's going to make a cut before the defensive player with coverage knows. Because he does, he can prepare better to make the cut without slipping more effectively than the defender. If the only inclement condition is rain (winds tomorrow are supposed to be light and variable) It has never appeared to me that good players have that much more difficulty holding on to the ball or catching it compared with dry conditions. The knowledge and expertise of the visiting equipment manager is also key. It's his job to make recommendations about what footwear players should use. You assume the home team knows what kind of shoes work best when their own field is wet, but the visitors may not unless the equipment manager has experience on that field and does his homework.

cd1 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 How many players are from Buffalo or any of the northern states? Â How many players in today's NFL practice outside in rain and snow?

Â This harsh weather advantage is just a ridiculous myth. The Bengals actually don't have an indoor practice facility. Because mike brown is cheap. Marvin Lewis has been asking for one since 2011.

dulles Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Harsh weather conditions usually have worked AGAINST the Bills the last several years, so I don't think it will help much. The Bills teams of old would revel in delight during bad weather, but these recent teams not so much. That was when our team wasn't built around fundamentals and consistency. I think we were often beat by fundamentally sound teams in those games for that reason. I agree about the past performance, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a different result tomorrow.

dayman Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Rain favors the offense so I don't particularly see it helping us. Makes it harder to drive on the ball or pop off the DLline...offense knows where they are going and OL benefit when defenders can't cut/explode as easily.
