Simple question. What is the best way to pass on a cold, windy day?

The best way to play in the freezer is for Josh to throw accurate passes to Diggs all day. Josh to Diggs = points.

 

Welcome to the Tundra.

 

You know what doesn't get mentioned enough, how the cold & wind affects receivers specifically.

 

Even with gloves/handwarmers, their hands get super cold & likely lose some feeling. Then you have a QB like Allen thinking "gotta rip this pass to make sure the wind doesn't carry it" throwing it to you, and BAM! The first time those frozen hands feel anything is like your fingers getting slammed in a car door!

 

Especially in games where there's long gaps between targets, that sensation of the ball lasered into your hands must really shock the senses.

 

I only bring it up because Diggs has now had 2 very notable drops in our last 2 freezing weather games, when prior to that he had zero since being with the Bills? Feel bad for them in those situations, because I can only imagine how tough it is.

Passing wind?  Eat a lot of beans.  Simple.

Obvious answer…build a fixed roof stadium.  😉
