budlitebrad Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 Ice Bowl is still the coldest. Game-time temperature was -13°F, with a wind chill around -48°F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 found a few sites that state Ice Bowl coldest game ever temperature wise but coldest game with wind chill included was actaully the 81 playoff game with Bengalds and Chargers ( -50 F ) 1981 Season, AFC championship game versus the San Diego Chargers. This game is the coldest temperature (after wind chill is factored) ever recorded for an NFL game. The ambient temperature with the wind combined for almost -50 degrees fahrenheit. The Bengals won 27-7 to proceed to Super Bowl XVI. The Bengal's offensive linemen were on the field with the standard sleeveless spamshirts in an effort to intimidate the Charger team more accustomed to the warmer California weather.
