National Weather Service is projecting an arctic blast to settle over Kansas City for Sunday's AFC Championship Game vs Patriots, reports the @AP_NFL . Temperatures at kickoff could range from 10 degrees to well below zero, making it the coldest game in Arrowhead Stadium history.

won't be below zero.... wind chill but actual temp should be around 5-10 above zero

My question is whether “homefield advantage” works in the Chefs’ favor under such conditions.

OTOH, I’m sure the winner of the NFCCG will be pictured in shorts sipping umbrella drinks watching the game.

Fun, unrelated fact:

The coldest outdoor Super Bowl on record was SB VI in New Orleans.

Yeah, it's going to be cold, but there isn't a chance of snow or anything.

when it's that cold, you don't need snow to have an effect on the field or players' bodies

I have been to a lot of GB/CHI games in the freezing cold/snow. The games are not fun. Now watching it on TV I agree is awesome.

Ain’t got shite on this...

Freezer Bowl was the 1981 American Football Conference (AFC) Championship Game between the San Diego Chargers and the Cincinnati Bengals. The game, won by the Bengals, 27–7, was played in the coldest temperature in NFL history in terms of wind chill. (The coldest in terms of air temperature was the Ice Bowl.) Air temperature was -9 °F (-22.8 °C), but the wind chill, factoring in a sustained wind of 27 miles per hour (43 km/h), was -37 °F or -38.3 °C (calculated as -59 °F or -50.6 °C using the now outdated wind chill formula in place at the time).

Bengals Oline went sleeveless like true Baws.
