NFL Week 1 Weather Updates Heat rain wind could affect fanta

Posted by seestyle on July 25th, 2022

Weather is always the "forgotten factor" in fantasy football. We spend hours obse sing over start 'em, sit 'em decisions and waiver wire pickups, but then wemightsee a weather report at the last minute and barely pay attention to it. Of course, we all know heavy rain, wind, or snow can play alter games, and if you're caught off guard, it's easy to overreact (or not react enough). That's why, with the help of , we' Patrick Kerney Jersey ll hit you with a weekly weather report so you can take everything into account when setting your lineups. Fortunately for Week 1, there isn't much to take in.

There arereally just twoworrisome spots in the Week 1NFL weather forecast, and those are in Buffalo for the Steelers-Bills and Jacksonville for the Packers-Saints. Both are relatively minor worries, but given the lack of any other i sues (besides some heat that often leads to cramping), those games standout. Otherwise,we're looking at a pretty perfect Week 1.

NFL Week 1 weather updates

Forecasts courtesy for .

Steelers @ Bills.Winds will likely be between 10-15 mph, and there's around a 50-percent chance of rain (more so late in the game than early). It could wind up being nothing or there could be in-game showers that slightly slow down the pa sing offenses and kicking games. Either way, it's tough to bench any of the top pa sing or receiving options for either team.

WEEK 1 DFS LINEUPS: | |

Packers vs. Saints (in Jacksonville).We're used to not worrying about weather in Saints home games, but this "home game" is in Jacksonville. The weather Ugo Amadi Jersey forecast is somewhat similar to Buffalo's, with winds gusting to 15 mph and showers potentially moving in and out. Given the QBs in question, there's no reason to change your fantasy outlook on them. The same goes for Davante Adams. Marquez Callaway becomes slightly riskier, but if you were counting him, the forecast isn't enough reason to take him out of your lineup.

MORE WEEK 1 DFS: | |

Broncos @ Giants, Vikings @ Bengals, & Dolphins @ Patriots.All three Cody Barton Jersey of these games could see winds around 15 mph. However, with little chances of rain, there's no reason to alter your fantasy decisions based solely on the breeze.

WEEK 1 NFL PICKS ADVICE: |

Browns @ Chiefs.This game has some mild wind concerns, too (not enough to affect fantasy decisions), but the main reason we wanted to highlight it is because it could see the highest temperatures of the day, with in-game highs reaching the mid-90s. It's one of several games that figures to see temperatures reach the high-80s or low-90s. You shouldn't bench anyone because of high temps, but this is just a reminder that you could see your players going in and out of games a little more often, especially if they have i sues with cramping.

All of this is subject to change as we get closer to kickoff. You can follow meteorologist Kevin Roth on Twitter D.J. Fluker Jersey () and check out the on RotoGrinders. For the best weather-related fantasy advice, take a look at .
