Projected weather for Bengals vs. Bills matchup on Sunday

Forecast

Partly to mostly cloudy. High 23F. Winds WSW at 10-20 mph. Chance of snow 30%.

Fantasy/betting implications

If the winds get to 20 mph, that is not insignificant and if additional arm strength is needed, Josh Allen certainly has the advantage over Joe Burrow in that category. Be sure to check wind strength as we get closer to game time because that could also play a role in the kicking game on Sunday afternoon.
