Dawgs By Nature
For traditionalists against the Cleveland Browns playing in a domed stadium, your day may have come in Week 13 of the 2025 NFL season. “Football is an outside sport,” “Cleveland football should have all the weather involved,” and “It is not real football without the weather,” are just a few of the statements made by this group of folks.
Some have even said it is an advantage for the Browns to play outdoors, despite data saying otherwise. Generally speaking, there are only one or two games at most a year where cold, bad weather impacts the game in Cleveland.
Week 13 against the San Francisco 49ers is likely to be one of those games. The current weather forecast is calling for all the weather issues that impact football:
The official write-up by The Weather Channel:
Windy. Rain showers early will transition to snow showers in the afternoon. High 38F. Winds SW at 25 to 35 mph. Chance of precip 60%. Higher wind gusts possible.
While there is some growing hype for QB Shedeur Sanders’ home debut, the weather could put a damper on the number of passes thrown, the success rate of both teams’ quarterbacks, and the general energy of the crowd just days after Thanksgiving.
