All of the game weather data was derived from NFL.com GameBooks from each particular game. Gameday temperatures are only indicated within the graphs.

If wind was also listed for games, those numbers are shown in the index at the bottom. Many of the GameBooks did not list wind and are indicated by the UNK abbreviation. Other conditions such as 'weather' and humidity are also shown, but if the data wasn't available, an 'n/a' is displayed for that category.

Only two of the GameBooks listed wind chill factors and those were the two Giants' games which were played in the Meadowlands. If memory serves, the wind chills were 45 and 38 degrees respectively for those two games. Since there were only two games mentioning wind chill, I decided to exclude those from the index.

I saw that at the bottom but it did not appear that the bar graph was indicating wind one way or the other since it was only showing temps. The section below was giving more info as far as temps, weather condition and wind

One of the games last year had the QB wearing (A)glove and for some reason I am under the impression it wasn't even his throwing hand. Maybe for better grip during hand offs.If records are kept on temp and humidity maybe you can research the glove on QB's and success rate for us.

Week, game date and humidity are listed in the index at the bottom. Just match the game(s) which Romo wore a glove to those particular game(s) and *presto!*

I think it was a prelim to the main show and it wasn't Romo, but another teams QB. I don't know if Tony ever wore gloves during games.

That last game in Philly was pretty mild for December, so Tony (or anyone else) would be hard pressed to use "weather" as an excuse.

Oh! My bad. You're talking about accumulating data on quarterbacks in general. :eek::

With respect, that ain't happening. ;) :)
