I think snow hurts us more then them. Our passing game needs for our guys to be able to move. Snow favors a strong running game.

I guess you just ain't old enuf to remember the Lynn Dickey MNF game at Denver in the snow. ::razz:
The snow kept the pass rush down. (sort of. He ended up getting sacked 3 times in 2nd half) The defenders did not know when the receivers were going to make their move so they were either slipping or at least a step behind.
Dickey had 371 yards passing.
It was an exciting game. Too bad GB lost. :crybaby: Even though Lynn and GB marched up and down the feild they could not finish. GB had 4 turnovers (7 fumbles lost 4 and an Int) They only had 14 points. Denver who was not as effective had 17 14 off of fumbles that were returned for TDs.

That's true. Snow seems to favor offenses a bit.
Not liking that one bit.
I like to see guys getting sacks, making interceptions, forcing fumbles. With this snowfall, we'll see a lot of slipping and sliding on the defense. A lot of cuts. Maybe we're lucky that Mendenhall is one of those scat backs, who will slip and fall more often than a one cut, straigth ahead runner like Grant.
I bet they wish that they hadn't cut loose Dump Truck Davenport right now. That man played really well whenever he got the chance to. Especially for the Steelers.
