That certainly was a wacky Week 14 weather-wise, wasn't It? And now I have a better grasp of ice pellets, thank goodney. Week 15 has some weather issues, but it certainly will not rival last week's conditions. Here is the early report; I will update on Saturday as per usual.

Looks clear and cold in Denver this evening. Nothing to be concerned about. Peyton showed us last week he can play fine in the cold.
UPDATE: There will be some breezy venues this weekend (Jacksonville, Cleveland and Pittsburgh) but I would be more concerned with the snow forecasts in Cleveland and Pittsburgh. I am watching the snow accumulate here in Detroit as I write this, but it will have no effect on the game scheduled for Monday at Ford Field, as the dome keeps playing conditions superb all season long. Rain showers in Tampa/St. Pete, unless they turn torrential, are of little concern for our purposes. The balance of the games are not affected by weather, as it will either be calm and clear/partly cloudy or played under a dome. My opinion: don't sweat the weather this Sunday, play your players as you normally would.
As ever, good luck and Godspeed in your fantasy efforts. Make sure to read all of our great articles to help you win your fantasy match ups every week and ultimately bask in championship glory.
