MudSkipper Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) If you are like me and this is a CRITICAL game for playoff implications then you do have to factor the Weather (which calls for thunderstorms at gametime). I am souring on McNair a bit as a result. If you are a local and could provide some insight it would be much appriciated. I do feel it will neagtively impact the passing game, and could have been a high scoring arial show otherwise. To bad really.

cre8tiff Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I got no one in this game in any league. A freaking tornado can transport the entire field to Oz, for all I care... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ced1001 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 It seems like these days most teams are pretty adept at executing their gameplans regardless of foul weather. However, I have to imagine that driving rain will slow down the Cinci arial assualt at least to some extent and increase the liklihood of some turnovers in this game.

Vet Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 No impact. Ravens and the under. Â Baltimore 17 Cincinnati 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Score 1 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I think the weather favors both teams RB's. Of the two, I expect Jamal Lewis to have a big game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MudSkipper Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 I really do not see how Rudi Johnson gets a bump, the Ravens D is a killer. In particular I am looking for thoughts on how the passing game could be negatively impacted, or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) I've got 5 bucks on Ray Lewis being the one to be struck by lightning if anyone is. Seems like justice. Edited November 30, 2006 by TimC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Irish Doggy Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Weather in the midwest.... Â They've been saying that the heavy stuff isn't supposed to come down until afte game time on local weather reports. It will definately be wet. If its just light rain, I think there is no cause for concern. Personally, I'd wait until right before gametime to make any plays if I could.

pseudolefty Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I have Carson and Rudy, so this game is critical. Gotta stick with them despite the weather. Go Cincy! Keep rackin' up the points. It's not a great matchup against a tough Ravens D, but the Bengals need this game more, are playing at home, and have the skill position players to burn the Ravens D for some scores. Cincy homers keep us posted on the conditions. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bengal Mania Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Back to back shutouts for the Bengals! Â Bengals 20 Ravens 0 (you know MnNairs joints gotta hurt in the rain) Â 30-40% chance of rain all afternoon (dry but gray right now, 12:30), 60-70% after ~6 PM, but the weather icon changes from "rain" to "T-Storms" to "T-Storms/Thunder" to "Where's Noah?"

The Misfit Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Another thing about the weather ... It's been a balmy week or so for November here, like in the mid-60s (it's 66 right now where I am, about 15 miles north of the stadium). What's happening is that a front is moving in, and we don't know exactly when it will hit. Rain looks likely, but temperatures will be dropping rapidly, there is a chance of everything from thunderstorms to even freezing rain and snow which should probably not hit until after game time (tomorrow's high is currently projected for 40, 26 degrees colder than it is right now). Â It's gonna be really hard to tell what to expect until much closer to game time, but it could be anything from cloudy to rain, and if the front does hit in full force with the thunderstorms, it will probably bring a lot of gusting wind with it, too. Â Except for the game in Week 9, when the Bengals spotted them 17 points and lost by 6, Carson Palmer has owned Baltimore's D. I can't imagine a game plan, even in driving rain, that is just gonna focus on the run. With our defense, we'd lose that battle. Â Our o-line has been playing much better the past three weeks, but I dare say we haven't been tested by the likes of what the Ravens will be bringing tonight. It'll be interesting, and the weather is just another factor of many. Â Bengals 28, Ravens 26, called in the fourth quarter due to lightning.

theeohiostate Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 (edited) i'm 15 miles north of Cincy and we haven't had any rain since early this morning. It's very cloudy, but i don't smell rain in the air. Â My bro will be at the game and is calling me an hour before kickoff to let me know how it looks there.

Big Score 1 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 My injury report says Jamal Lewis is questionable (CBS Sportsline).  I can't find anything in the Baltimore Sun - their game analysis was from yesterday.  Here ya go... After a first half in which running back Jamal Lewis rushed for 61 yards on 13 carries and a touchdown, Lewis ran the ball just four times for 5 yards in the second frame. Lewis said he had no complaints with the cut in playing time because of Thursday night's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.  "That was just us getting prepared for Thursday's game," Lewis said. "I didn't really have to do anything else. We were up by a great amount of points. We have a short week coming up, and that was really just looking ahead." www.baltimoresun.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardinalEmpire.com Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Down in Louisville (about 90 minutes south-southwest) and it's just sprinking right now. It's very cloudy and looks like it could rain at any minute, but for now it's just spitting raindrops. There is no appreciable wind. If that front hangs out in KC all afternoon, that would be fine with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
