Shaft Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 The forecast is saying that we might have our first snow game of the season. https://www.milehighreport.com/2018/10/10/17960254/broncos-rams-weather-update And I was actually considering putting DT back in my starting lineup, I guess that won't be happening.

I predict snow starts falling tomorrow by noon. I'll predict the game is played in the 40-45*F range, meaning that the snow will melt off by game time and the field will be clear. Might want to check your forecasting ability against the experts. High temp for Den 25, 1-3" of snow. Doubt they're off by 15-20 degrees.

stevegrab Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Just now, Courduroy said: He lives in Denver, feet on the ground as they say. Yes I know he lives there, but he just posts whatever pops into his head without much thought or real information. He cannot predict the weather on Sunday by walking his kids to school Friday morning. Trust him if you like. I trust what our local weather forecaster says than Weather.com, Accuweather or some other national source. But they're not just guessing.

Defenses usually have more turnovers during such weather. Running games will see more work as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A QB who can read conditions and adjust should have better games than they usually do.

tazinib1 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 You literally just gave a bland description of a QB adjusting to snow that applies to every other weather condition lol. This is straight out of the Capt. Obvious book of football acumen. Anyway...enough about that I have a ton of players in this game on both sides of the ball. I don't take any game for granted and I hope this isn't a trap game. That being said, I'm starting all my players on both teams with high confidence. And yes, I have Keenum on a team but that's on a rival FF site. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I think Lindsey is a fine play. Freeman is about speculation on whether or not it is over at halftime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So while you say it was obvious, I'm saying that you're making a mistake player any DEN players. if you want to help, tell us what you think your Rams are going to do after they get a significant lead? Will Rams pass game shut down? Todd Gurley all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensive backs being able to have traction when receivers make cuts is a great reason to play WRs during a snow game. I've been the beneficiary of many great games for WRs during snow games. Same for RBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, been playing since 1989 (almost 30 years), so i've definitely seen my share of both kinds of performances in the snow but i've seen more advantage taken from light snowfalls than not. Depends on many factors though, temperature, wind, how heavy the snow falls, quality of teams playing. I expect the rams to still be explosive tomorrow.

Yep it varies, recall a Bills- Browns game in December one year, think it ended 9-6, seven inches of wet snow fell during the game, on top of morning snow. Neither team could do muh on offense, especially passing, was hard to see too. I'm rolling with DT in this one, other options Cole at DAL, Funches at WAS. I expect Rams O to do well, and Broncos will need to throw to stay in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
