Bear weather only works against teams from warmer climates. The Bears would need to prepare for New England weather. lol

So you think Chicago has an edge when a team comes to town when it's cold... that theory has never held water, move on.

By the way, I know it's probably beyond your paygrade but calling someone a Special person is a classless thing to do and offensive.

Weather means shit when it comes to football. It's not like northern teams rosters are filled with Vikings while southern teams have Amazon tribes. Half of these dudes went to high school in Texas or Florida anyway. What matters is travel time (see cross country records) and injuries.

It's true. I hate the Midwest weather. Too extreme for my liking in summer and winter. We didn't even get a spring this year in central IL. It was winter until mid April and oppressively hot from May onwards. I hope for a nice long fall but I'm not counting on it.

That's true for the midwest, but from Chicago I visit Louisville a few times a year and they have a long sweltering hot summer, even though only 6 hrs south of Chicago. Summers are brutal, you go further south, even worse. For me that makes our weather much more tolerable, and this years spring was very weird. Be nice if we get a long fall season this year.

Not to deflate this stimulating cold weather football discussion based on the Farmer's Almanac, but NOAA's Climate Prediction Center is calling for a 60-70% probability of an El Nino winter, albeit only a mild one. El Nino winters are warmer & wetter than normal. Of course, NOAA's predictions are based on scientific process & actual measurements, not wooly caterpillars & dart boards, so what could they possibly know? But if you do buy into that El Nino/La Nina stuff, you might want to start worrying about 35 degrees and rain for those late December games. And that type of weather is much more miserable for watching a football game than a little cold air...

I have to agree with that.
Although the one exception I ever really noticed was Mike Vick in 2005 when the Falcons came to Soldier and the wind chill was in the negatives. He got rocked a few times, once by Urlacher, and he spent the rest of the game looking like he was trying to stay warm on the sidelines and waiting until he could get out of there.

Which means no excuses for Rodgers or Mitch...the conditions should be impeccable.

Considering Green Bay plays in colder, worse conditions than the Bears, I don’t imagine Bear weather would have done much to hurt them to begin with.
If there’s one team that would be immune to it, it’s Green Bay.
