Anyone have thoughts on Bears/Patriots total? I’m seeing right around 41 at different places right now. Granted, it is still 4 days and change until kickoff but they are forecasting nasty weather for the game. Temps are supposed be in the 20s (which isn’t too bad) but they are forecasting 40+ MPH wind gusts which would knock the wind chill to around -6. They are also calling for a pretty good amount of snow starting on Saturday night lasting through Sunday night (3:15 local kickoff).
I do remember that mid-October snowstorm last year where the Pats hung 59 on Tennessee but I also remember that super-windy Pats-Bills game 2 or 3 years ago where passing was pretty much impossible and the Pats won in the neighborhood of 13-0. The last Bears home games I can recall that were super cold were wins over the Falcons (in ’05) and Packers (in ’08) that were relatively low-scoring affairs.
A combo of the cold, wind, and snow definitely make this worth monitoring. Just my two cents.
