Steelers vs. Browns weather update: Mother Nature could wreck Sunday's game

quote:

Mother Nature looks like she’s going to dump tons of wind and heavy rain on Cleveland tomorrow and that could have a huge impact on the outcome of the game.

I play against AB and sat gordon this week. So I’m probably ok with this

I saw this earlier in my feed.
quote:

NOAA meteorologists in their latest forecast discussion calling Sunday's weather in CLE "a significant, potentially record rainfall event." Upwards of 3-5 inches could fall by Sunday evening. Mix in sustained winds of 17-21 MPH with gusts reaching 40 MPH

I've been keeping an eye on it. Was considering starting Conner @ CLE over Drake vs TEN but think I'll stick with Drake now unless something changes. Also gonna have to drop Boswell for another kicker.

No way I can bench Brown and OBJ this week but given their circumstances I wish I could

That weather is perfect for a RB

No way you bench your studs. Regardless of matchups or weather

I know normal rain can be good for RBs but potentially record breaking rainfall and heavy wind? There's a good chance of rain for the MIA/TEN game as well.

I've read there is also a chance that the CLE/PIT game is postponed. How does that work for fantasy? When they finally play the game the points just don't count?

Could be a big volume day for Conner, hes gotta be a top 12 back this week ranking wise, I dont see how you can sit him if you're an owner.

Drake is a better start regardless

I think they're only talking about moving it to Monday, maybe.

Been saying the same thing CB. If DeAngelo Williams can be a top 3 back in that offense, I don't see why Connor can't be at least an RB1.

of course not just because I want to doesn't mean I will.

Weather games as such in CLE affects all offense and scoring, historically. Check the tape

I wonder if this is something that could postpone the game. That obviously makes it sound pretty serious.

I'm going to monitor tomorrow morning. If it's just a field of soup and slop, I may go with Peyton Barber over Connor.

Yeah as a heavy Conner owner I’m hoping they move it to Monday

That's my hope as well. I would like to be able to start JuJu as well, but I can plug in Emmanuel Sanders if I have to. The latest thing I just saw was 1" an hour is possible during the game. That's crazy.
