Remind me how much SF gave up for CMC I forgot

It’s an equalizer for speed. Favors team with better run game and defense. Which is

Who is he and why

Not unless the game that week is going to be in similar conditions. They should practice in preparation for the upcoming game conditions.

Yep. I live in the Midwest but going to Buffalo in the winter is a totally different kind of cold. You need to live there regularly to get acclimated. The wind at highmark too is not really replicated The point is that while snow and rain affect every QB, Allen’s arm strength, mobility and experience playing in it trend toward it affecting him to a lesser degree than the opposing QB in most situations, other than mahomes

Bates backup is listed as Justin Murray. I think you could also see Bobby Hart or Ike Boettger (if activated) there, possibly Van Roten. They’ve had a specific role for Hart as a 6th OL/TE and not sure if they want to mess with that but he played G all of TC.

It is because they can practice in it.

Something Rex would have done

If you compare to how McDermott prepares for a September game in Miami, it’s the total opposite. He’s hyper focused on doing as much as possible and acknowledging the impact. Typically he’s successful too. This year they did everything they could but it was not to be overcome. But at least they can say they did everything they could to prepare. There isn’t anything the Fish can do to practice in it, but I would think taking it seriously and adjusting the game plan accordingly would be on the agenda. Maybe they will and this is all a bunch of fake hubris, but not sure how that benefits them to pretend it’s only a “mindset” and that snowflakes in the south make you ready for buffalo snow and that Tua will be able to do everything he normally can as long as he can grab the ball
