Weather for Saturday's game
Rain 70% chance, temp in the mid 40's. This could affect the outcome, it could be an advantage to us having played last weekend in the rain.

Re: Weather for Saturday's game
Take a gander at those winds. SSW 18 to 24 mph. And those are just the sustained winds!!! Gusts could approach 40 mph. Now, I don't know how much the wind swirls inside Qwest, but if it's only half as disruptive as it is in the Meadowlands, signs point to the Hawks' passing game grinding to a halt.
And don't get me started about the rain and how it always falls in SEA; while almost true, this kind of meteorological set up will prove to be the wettest and windiest conditions that stadium has possibly ever experienced. There will be so many mud-caked unis and unwieldy footballs that the broadcast booth won't know what to talk about more: the horrific weather or the Skins' resilience to it. To invoke the words of Steve Spurrier, that ball club (SEA) just ain't gonna pitch it around too well. |

Re: Weather for Saturday's game
Not only it is going to a lot of rain pouring and winds going from 20-30 mph. It is also expected to have alittle thundering in the afternoon. I hope it doesn't effect the game though!

Re: Weather for Saturday's game
Sand Trap I just want to thank you for being one of the classiest cowboys fans on this board. there are several fans from other teams who come on the site and you, gainttone, and countless other fans of other teams who I have a real respect for. We all love this game of football and although we are rivals we do respect each others teams. Hail from SC!!

Re: Weather for Saturday's game
It's Seattle, rains all the time. I don't think it will keep them from spreading it out & throwing to those wr's. Likewise, I don't think we'll run any more or less due to the rain unless it's really severe & is accompanied by strong winds.

This has been my pet peeve recently. Fans that blindly support their teams without respecting what other teams do. When Romo and TO carved up our secondary, I showed nothing but respect -- saying they were an amazing combination that I hate to face. We stomp them this week.. all i get is that we suck and Cowboys didnt care and TO didnt play and blah blah... I cannot stand people that do not show true respect or knowledge. |

Re: Weather for Saturday's game
Boys, I am sure glad someone beat me to the punch and alerted the faithful with the weather update. Thanks, SFRedskin.
For all intents and purposes, that will be changed to a 100% chance of not only rain, but heavy, blinding rain for gametime Saturday. This is a powerful storm system that will plow ashore and produce rain amounts in excess of 2-3 inches. The winds will probably howl more than they did during the NYG game, making it imperative for the rushing attacks to have above average, if not stellar, production. I'll take CP and the Skins to do more in these elements. All the while, native DC'ers will enjoy a very pleasant January weekend marked by temps in the 50s and more sun than clouds. It will occur in advance of what will be our January thaw all of next week, with widespread 60s for high temps and a spring-like feel to the air. |
