RPbillsfan Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Weather forecast for Baltimore is constant rain thru 10:00 PM tonight. Gonna be wet, possibly muddy and that may lead to the possession passing game having the advantage. Thats TS tends to make me feel better about the Bills chances.

People vastly overestimate the effect of rain. It doesn't have that much of an effect unless it is accompanied by wind. Rain by itself has really no much effect at all on the passing game. A wet ball definitely effects the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grass is wet so you can’t cut on it as quickly so the speed of the game is slower. The wet ball is easier to drop, fumble and slip through your hands. That leads to turnovers. You also can’t throw as deep in rain. Ever try to catch a punt or can’t a bomb in rain? When you have rain drops, especially a decently hard rain, it just peppers your eye balls. Makes it much harder to see and get to the ball. I received punts and in rain games, I was told by my coaches that if I’m not directly under the ball, let it go. They did not want me having to catch a wet ball on a wet surface while moving because it can easily be dropped. Rain affects a game big time. Our gameplan isn’t going to be the same as if it were 75 and sunny. Edited September 9, 2018 by Royale with Cheese 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Been listening to the Ravens pregame show here in Bmore. The analyst being interviewed says the Bills have zero chance today and especially given the weather. Apparently Flacco and his big hands throws great in the rain. He says the Ravens have gotten better since the end of last season and Bills have gotten worse. And Since Bills are predicted to have fewest wins in the NFL, that’s another reason why Buf must suck. So there ya go. Keep raining and count us out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i agree that will make a difference....poor Peterman...last game was in a whiteout and now this one is in a monsoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Costa Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 Chris Ivory’s going to play a big role today getting some tough yards when it counts. Ravens D going to be all over Shady. Especially if it’s hard to cut because of slippery conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
