Games Affected by Weather
Minnesota Vikings vs. Chicago Bears | High Impact
Sun 1:00 PM ET –– Soldier Field
The most impacted game on the Sunday slate. Thunderstorms are likely from pregame through the final whistle, with precipitation chances holding at 55-72% and sustained northeast wind at 20 mph throughout the game window. Temperatures stay in the upper 60s. The combination of steady rain and 20 mph wind makes this the only game on the slate where both the passing game and kicking game face significant conditions.
Green Bay Packers vs. New York Jets | High Impact
Sun 1:00 PM ET –– MetLife Stadium
Rain showers are likely at kickoff and intensify through the game window, with precipitation probability climbing from 57% to 84% by the second half. Temperatures hold in the upper 60s with south wind at 10 mph. MetLife should see steady rain for most of the afternoon rather than the scattered thunderstorm pattern affecting other venues.
Cleveland Browns vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers | High Impact
Sun 1:00 PM ET –– Raymond James Stadium
Raymond James Stadium opens under mostly sunny skies at kickoff with just an 8% precipitation chance, but the forecast flips sharply at 2 PM when thunderstorms arrive at 76% probability and hold through the end of the game. Temperatures start at 88°F with light east wind. This is a textbook Florida afternoon pattern where second-half conditions could differ dramatically from the first.
New Orleans Saints vs. Baltimore Ravens | High Impact
Sun 1:00 PM ET –– M&T Bank Stadium
M&T Bank Stadium starts with a 15% chance of rain at kickoff, then jumps to 61% by the second quarter as rain showers move in from the south. Temperatures climb into the low 80s with south wind at 10 mph. The first quarter should play clean, but conditions will deteriorate as the game progresses.
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New England Patriots | High Impact
Sun 1:00 PM ET –– Gillette Stadium
Precipitation probability builds steadily throughout the game window, starting at 37% at kickoff and reaching 59% by 4 PM. Temperatures hold in the low 60s with light south wind at 3-5 mph. The rain is expected to arrive as showers rather than thunderstorms, meaning lower intensity but more persistent moisture on the field as the game goes on.
Indianapolis Colts vs. Kansas City Chiefs | High Impact
Sun 8:20 PM ET –– GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium
Sunday Night Football faces a 59% thunderstorm probability throughout the entire game window from 8 PM to 11 PM. Temperatures drop from 75°F at kickoff to 70°F by the fourth quarter with light north wind at 7 mph. Unlike the early-window games where storms build through the afternoon, Kansas City’s thunderstorm risk is already elevated at kickoff and stays flat through the broadcast.
Carolina Panthers vs. Atlanta Falcons | Medium Impact
Sun 1:00 PM ET –– Mercedes-Benz Stadium (Retractable roof, expected closed)
Outdoor conditions show a 39% thunderstorm chance developing from 2 PM forward with temperatures in the upper 80s. The retractable roof is expected to be closed, eliminating any on-field weather impact.
Philadelphia Eagles vs. Tennessee Titans | Medium Impact
Sun 1:00 PM ET –– Nissan Stadium
The heat is the story in Nashville. Nissan Stadium starts at 95°F at kickoff and climbs to 99°F by the fourth quarter under mostly sunny skies. Wind is minimal at 5 mph from the southwest with no precipitation concerns. The late-September heat creates conditioning risk for both sidelines, particularly as temperatures approach triple digits in the second half.
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Denver Broncos | Medium Impact
Sun 4:05 PM ET –– Empower Field at Mile High
Denver carries a 36% chance of showers and thunderstorms throughout the late-afternoon game window. Temperatures are comfortable in the low 70s with northeast wind at 8 mph. The risk is lower than the early-window rain games, but Denver’s afternoon thunderstorm pattern could produce a brief, intense storm during the game.
Washington Commanders vs. Dallas Cowboys | Medium Impact
Sun 4:25 PM ET –– AT&T Stadium (Retractable roof, expected closed)
Outdoor conditions show 97°F heat with a slight chance of thunderstorms at 19%. The retractable roof is expected to be closed for climate control, eliminating any on-field weather impact.
Seattle Seahawks vs. Arizona Cardinals | Medium Impact
Sun 4:25 PM ET –– State Farm Stadium (Retractable roof, expected closed)
Outdoor conditions show 98°F heat under sunny skies. The retractable roof is expected to be closed for climate control, eliminating any on-field weather impact.
DFS and Betting Takeaway
Chicago stands out as the most actionable weather game on the slate. The combination of 20 mph wind and 72% thunderstorm probability suppresses both the passing game and kicking accuracy, making Bears-Vikings the strongest weather-driven Under lean of the week. Running backs in this game carry elevated DFS value.
The five other high-impact rain games all favor ground-game usage and create fumble risk, but none carry the wind component that makes Chicago especially hostile to the passing game. Tampa Bay and Baltimore are worth noting for live bettors: both games start under manageable conditions before storms arrive in the second quarter, meaning first-half totals could play differently from full-game totals. Sunday Night Football in Kansas City adds a primetime wrinkle, with thunderstorms in play from kickoff through the final whistle.
Nashville’s 99°F fourth-quarter heat is the non-precipitation angle to monitor. Temperatures approaching triple digits create late-game fatigue that can affect pace, particularly in the fourth quarter.
