NFL Playoffs Weather Report: Wild Card Weekend

The most significant factor  in the playoffs  no one can control is Mother Nature.

The weather can change a game in a moment and take a team from winning to sloppy plays and loss. We saw it happen in last year's playoffs when the Los Angeles Rams faced the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Divisional Round.

The game started with a bit of rain and cold temperatures.

By the second-half kickoff, it was a snowstorm, and the field had several inches of snow. The Rams fumbled three times, all after the snow started, and lost two of them.

The Eagles fumbled twice but recovered both of their fumbles and had a no-turnover game. The Rams had more yards than the Eagles, but could not overcome their turnovers.

So we are going to give you the current weather forecasts through the AFC and NFC Wild Card games this weekend. 

Could we see Mother Nature take over another big game and change the outcome? It is possible, especially since both games will be played outdoors this weekend.

AFC Wild Card Weekend Weather Report

Los Angeles Chargers @ New England Patriots

Not the ideal weather conditions for the Chargers and ideal for the Pats.

At game time, the temperatures will be around 36 degrees. Winds will be moderate, coming from the west at 11 to 14 mph. 

How will this affect Justin Herbert and his surgically repaired hand? It sure won't help, that's for sure.

Houston Texans @ Pittsburgh Steelers

Not promising conditions for CJ Stroud and the Texans, with game-time temperatures hovering around the freezing mark of 32 degrees. In a small bit of good news, the winds will be low, coming from the south, southwest at nine mph.

The Texans better bundle up, have extra layers on to keep warm, and bring their own priest to sprinkle some holy water inside Acrisure Stadium.
