What's with all the weather delays?

I can think of 3 weather delays already this year. Broncos vs Ravens last week, Bucs vs Saints and now Seahawks vs 49ers this week. Are they just being extra careful now? I can only remember 1 weather delay/cancelled game, that doesn't include a dome collapse, in my life and that was a preseason game between the Packers and Chiefs about 10 years ago. Plus I think it's rained in nearly every game this year as well.

And is it all related to how many safeties there have been in the first 2 weeks? Crazy year.

I've been thinking the same thing. Crazy year with the delays and safeties.

What's with a majority of the primetime games sucking the last couple of years, too? Blah. Hopefully tonight is a good one, with the Bengals winning! :D

They only delay games in NFL if there is lightning.

Well the Bengals won, but it was far from being a good game. Damn what happened to the Steelers? I'm glad they're on the schedule now haha. Watch the Vikes make them look like champs again. We have a nasty habit of helping teams correct their issues.

So true. :(

And you're right, the Bengals/Steelers game was far from a good one. I don't think the Raiders/Broncos will be much better. :lol: Who picks these primetime games? It won't be worth watching beyond the first quarter! There are so many other games this weekend more worthy of primetime than this one.
