Weather for Game (cold, rainy, windy)

Hey guys, I post on this board occasionally. I am also a wx forecaster. Below is one of the better weather models available, the time for this image is 7pm Saturday. Notice the rainfall ready to come in from the west, as well as the front embedded. The temp should fall as the game goes on and there is a good chance of wind/rain accompanying it. JFYI

Tsk, tsk ... that 84-hour ECMWF image is not for public dissemintation! So, tell me where you found it, just between you and me so the Euro model police don't find out where we're getting it from.

Looks like the U.S. models are a little faster, but that, of course, is their bias.

It's either going to be breezy and raining or or windy and turning colder, either way, the field is going to be wet. The Cards will not appreciate the weather no matter what happens. Advantage, Carolina.

My original thought on this was windy and 45-50 for temps with the rain out, but if that front is slower to move through we'll be more like 55 at kickoff and in the rain.

    • I’m not suggesting that tanking is the right thing to do every time. I do think that if you have guys like Burns and Moore that you will trade anyway, then you should think about tanking and getting max value, especially if you want to grab a QB that might go 1st overall. We tried to do both. Trade CMC for picks but don’t take 3 1sts and a 2nd for Burns and Moore. Instead, we won a few games and then threw in Moore on a trade because we didn’t tank and we gave Burns away for a 2nd. Can you honestly say that fully tanking, by trading away all our best guys who weren’t in future plans, in 2022 wouldn’t have made our team better now? We wanted a rookie QB and we didn’t extend the main guy we didn’t want to trade. We were 100% in full tear down and we could have been a playoff team last year if we used the 4 extra 1sts or 3 1sts and 2 2nds (counting picks saved on Young by being pick 3 or 4 not 9) on D. Culture building is funny. It took three coaching changes to seemingly get there. Morgan and Canales weren’t in charge when we “protected” our culture. We still traded Burns and Moore, we just lost 3 first round picks in the process. Also, do you think the Eagles are in a bad place because of their coach clearly tanking a game for a draft pick? Remember that? It was obvious and the coach was fired. The funny thing is that this is something teams do all the time but they add their stars (like Cam in 2016, CMC, Burns, etc.) to IR or rest them in week 16/17. Pederson was just dumb and made it obvious. He could have just sat his starters to start. Anyway, did that incident tank risk their credibility? Did Barkley decide to not sign with them? Seems like their SB win and other SB visit say they are just fine. Winning makes culture, picking the right coach makes culture, trading away guys who are on other teams in a year for top picks and keeping more picks by having a better starting pick to trade up, does not impact culture. If it helps you win, culture will be fine, ask the Eagles.
