Jaguars @ Bills: Both teams have great passing game matchups, but there is a 70% chance of rain in Buffalo. A significant southwest breeze will accompany it. I’m not terribly concerned, but this could mean that the running game will prevail for either side. So temper your expectations for all receivers, and bump up Fred Jackson a bit.

Panthers @ Chiefs: It will be 70 degrees and sunny. All systems go.

Seahawks @ Bears: Slight winds and a 20% chance of showers are in the forecast. Both teams are used to wind and rain, so I don’t see this being an issue.

Vikings @ Packers: It will be partly sunny and slightly chilly at 48 degrees. Well that would be chilly in Texas where we are based. In that part of the country people sweat just standing in that kind of balmy weather.

Patriots @ Dolphins: There will be wind gusts of up to 25 mph, but everything is kosher aside from that. Miami is difficult to run on, so I don’t expect a little wind to keep New England out of the air.

Cardinals @ Jets: 20% chance of isolated showers at 57 degrees in New Jersey. You should be more worried about inclement quarterback play.

Texans @ Titans: Nashville will be a sunny 70 degrees on Sunday with winds as high as 20 mph. This is the perfect storm… for Arian Foster.

Colts @ Lions: Dome

49ers @ Rams: Dome

Buccaneers @ Broncos: 66 degrees and Sunny in Denver. Nothing to see here.

Browns @ Raiders: This one is a doozy. A tempestuous rainstorm with 30 mph winds will descend upon Oakland on Sunday, and that is guaranteed. Downgrade all receivers, quarterbacks, and anyone else not named Trent Richardson. In fact, downgrade him too.

Bengals @ Chargers: It’s always sunny in San Diego, but there is a 30% chance of rain.

Eagles @ Cowboys: Arlington will be 60 degrees and cloudy in the SNF game at JerryWorld, and the roof should be open. This should turn out to  be a comedy of errors regardless of the weather.

Steelers @ Ravens: It will be a brisk 54 degrees in Baltimore and mostly sunny in this tough division game.

Giants @ Redskins: See above.
