anyone in Cleveland? I am trying to decide between Braylon Edwards and Santonio Holmes. I have Braylon in now, but if the winds are really THAT bad I'd change it. I remember the game early in the year with the Bengals where the ball was just flying everywhere because of the wind. Is it THAT bad?

I'm about 100 miles west of Cleveland and we've had sustained winds about 20-30mph with continuous gusting into the upper 30 to 40 mph range. We've had the wind all night and it is still going strong. Cleveland will definitely have this for the game. I have Edwards and am not even considering it. Bad weather, Dorsey, etc... I'm going with Hester at receiver and Ward at flex.
 
Anyone in clevland? Considering Braylon edwards as an alternative for Chris Johnson against the steelers. Is the wind as bad as it has been advertised?

Not trying to make a decision for you and you never know butBrowns vs Bengals Weather

Dorsey throwing it in 27-41 MPH winds does not sound too appealing.

ETA: Though I am not in Cleveland. It may "feel" much safer if you are there.

The current forecast for the Dolphins-Chiefs game has it starting windy but then the winds dying down significantly as the game goes along. So that doesn't look like it will be a major problem.

Since I live in KC I figured I would post the forecast as it is today (since it seems to change every 6 hour or so)Game time - Sunny to partly cloudy. Very cold. Wind chills approaching -10F. High 11F. Winds WNW at 20 to 30 mph.Just walking outside, it is freakin cold but right now the wind is not too bad (says right now that it is 10 MPH). It it gets to 20-30 I would say that will have an impact.ETA: Walking outside = about 10 Miles from the stadium

Keep chiming in with local updates but the hour-by-hour forecast on Weather.com still has winds of no more than 20 mph. That should be manageable and as we saw last week in KC, what was expected to be extreme against the passing games had no serious impact whatsoever.

Any last minute updates on the wind in KC?

There are stronger gusts of wind than there was earlier in the day. Currently the weather says winds at 17 MPH gusting at 31. It is obviously not sustaining at 31 but it is coming and going with decent regularity. It is kind of on the edge of what I would subjectively consider safe in terms of starting QB. WR. kickers, etc.. As long as the wind does not sustain (which so far it has not) they should all be relatively productive. But I expect there will be quite a bit more running today from both sides.

Any updates from Seattle? I have to choose between Cotchery or Ocho Johnson. Looks like bad weather in both places.

From Seattle.........There is no wind at all Downtown right now.

Quick update before I leave to go watch the Seahawks game.Flurries have started back up, though light. If they were to continue all day/game, possible accumulation of an inch, tops.Not even close to the AZ-NE game, although it looks like the heavy stuff has stopped in that game. Light wind, variable, under 10 MPH.
