It's been raining in Seattle for a month straight now, it's actually becoming quite a problem for the city from what I have seen on the news.
I think it helps us, Brunell showed in Denver that he can throw a wet ball with no problem. The field is artificial, so it matters little as far as footing.

Isn't Seattle more a finesse running team compared to us. I don't see them pounding the ball like we do with Portis and Betts. That would be a huge advantage to us. Plus it would make those average speed WRs even slower.

Like I said, the field is fake, so nobody will be any slower. The only issue will be a slippery ball. Hmmm, maybe we should leave Antonio Brown in DC this weekend.

LOL, that may be the best idea I have heard today. No punt returns for Brown plaese.

I think Santana has to field the punts this week. If there were a time to use him back there it is now IMO.

[IMALILTEAPOT]

both teams play on the same field, so i dont know if any one team benefits from this or not. but i think its just gonna be more of a slug it out game, and a lot of running from both teams. hopefully this doesnt make the gameplan really conservative, cuz i believe we need to score a lot of points(like 24) to win this game

as long as we actually have an offense then we have a shot no matter if it is raininf or not.

That's very interesting, how does the physics work out that way?

This is going to make running the ball and stopping the run that much more important.

Unfortunately, fans there are very, very used to rain.

[ChiefPowhatan17]

I think we play well in bad weather. Bring it.

[JoeDaSchmoe]

It'll make the fans quieter and generally favors a more defensive game. That sounds just dandy to me.

But if Brown is back there for punts, I'm gonna start hyperventilating.

I believe that rain helps our cause. I hope that the rain helps our cause. This game is pumping through my veins like hot needles. We need a win.
