Sunday weather

[UDcowboysfan]

I'm looking out my office into Paul Brown and it is nasty out there today. The field is going to saturated. I also can't tell if the field is covered up from my angle, but I doubt it.

My seats are typically in section 306, and I will be tailgating in the lot just east of the stadium. See you guys out there!

Well, I have to go out and buy something tonight that is actually waterproof for the game.

You guys that are able to go and tailgate are lucky. Envious to say the least. You guys have fun, be safe, and represent Cowboys Nation well.

Make sure it's not orange.

They have FieldTurf. The footing won't be affected at all, and there will be no mud.

Which quarterback is better at throwing a wet football? That, and a greater likelihood of fumbles, will be the only effect.

Even with FieldTurf, they don't keep up on it very well. The Brown's love to find ways to cut costs. The field will still be very saturated, I still think that favors us.

Yeah unless they've installed it as a roof and regardless of if it is expensive or inexpensive any rain is going to slow the rush for both teams.

We played them in the mid - late 90's and it was pouring rain over there.

If it does rain like hell it can affect the passing game and that wouldn't bode well for the Cowboys who can move the ball through the air but not on the ground. Murray will help but he isn't 100% so we'll have to see how effective he will be. Cinn on the other hand has a pretty good running game that ranks 11th and the Cowboys defense has struggled against the run the past 2 games giving 100 yard games to 2 rookie backs.

I could see Cinn having a lot of success on the ground and if they do it's going to be a long day for the Cowboys. Having difficulty stopping the run could open up some deep ball opportunities to AJ Green.

We're in section 340. Not sure if that's close to you. I'm pretty sure we are on the 50 yard line.
