    I hope so. Snow games are the best.

    Not only because NE tends to dominate them, but also because it is the element that separates football from every other sport.

    And especially because throwing an unproven starter against NE's defense should be fun in the snow. Flynn better be ready.

    I was checking it out this morning on the local news and it looks like just very light stuff with out the real snow kicking in until Monday Morning. But as we know that can change and I hope it does.

    Let's see, a team with no running game and an inexperienced backup QB in Foxboro...

    I like our chances, with or without snow.

    I'm pretty sure Rodgers will play...too big a game to miss. Course, if I'm the Pats, I bring the house and get some hits on him right away.

    Looking more and more likely to see some snowflakes Sunday night.  I'm coming up from Baltimore to go to the game, so I hope it's snowing, just not too much to make it difficult to get to or from Foxboro!

    Brady is 10-0 in snow because:

    He throws short bullet passes.  Many other QBs specialize in bombs.

    His receivers are short guys who have great lateral acceleration.  They're wide open in snow.  The defenders don't know which way they're going until they make the move, and then the snow slows their reaction time.  Welker is the archetype.  Branch is still pretty good at this.  Edelman has maybe the NFL's most explosive lateral motion, and he's better on punt returns in snow.  Now BB has RB Woodhead too.

    Blocking by the tight ends is an asset in cold weather.  Gronk and Crumpler are excellent, extra tackles on the field in January, except Gronk has soft hands and he runs.

    This is a team built for home games in January.
