NFL weather forecast for Bengals vs. Rams Week 3 Monday Night Football, what it means for fantasy and betting

The weather report can impact fantasy football and betting. We break down the important information you need to prepare for Week 3’s Monday Night Football matchup between the Bengals and Rams at Paycor Stadium.

NFL: SEP 17 Ravens at Bengals

The Cincinnati Bengals will host the Los Angeles Rams in one of two Monday Night Football contests happening in Week 3. Kickoff from Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati, OH is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET on Monday, Sept. 25.

Weather needs to be extreme to truly impact games, but when deciding between two players who you like equally, it might be a helpful tiebreaker. What we really don’t want to see is 20 mph or higher wind speeds. Rain can cause problems, but unless it is a combination of high winds and rain, we usually don’t want to downgrade our fantasy football players too much.

Helpful weather resources include National Weather Service and Accuweather, among others.
