NFL Week 7 Weather Report and Forecast: Major San Francisco Weather Conditions

I usually don’t adjust the rankings for skill players too much to the weather. But I’m making an exception for what could be a drenched Sunday night.

Indianapolis Colts at San Francisco 49ers (-4), O / U 42.5 | Sunday 8:20 p.m. ET

Every year there is a game that stands out because of the weather. The kind of game where conditions on the field are more like a mud pit than one where people receiving millions … and millions … of dollars should step one foot on without signing a waiver. The 2021-2022 NFL season will have a hard time surpassing what we could see next Sunday night.

It is very likely that this will be the worst weather we have seen for a game since the Slopfest since the Washington-San Francisco game in 2019 that ended 9-0. In fact, it could be pretty similar.

Sure, it’s time things changed, but the damage will be done to the field by the kick-off. The rain is expected to hit the Santa Clara area as early as Saturday night, and once it starts it won’t stop. In fact, it will only intensify. At kick-off we could already see almost three quarters of an inch of precipitation on the field. But the heaviest rain on the system will hit during the game, approaching 0.2 tenths an hour.

Wind could further affect the game

It’s almost a reflection of what we saw in Washington a few years ago. The only difference will be the extra wind, with sustained winds of 15 mph and gusts of 20 to 30+ at the start of the game.

Add the fact that Levi Stadium has been criticized for its field conditions in the past and we have a significant problem on hand.

Traditionally, I rarely adjust the rankings for position players based on the weather. But here I make an exception. Guys like Jonathan Taylor and even Deebo Samuel are moving down my rankings. Still, I don’t recommend sitting them up when you have them – just dampen expectations for a 1930s bout.

NFL weather report and forecast for games of the week 7: probability of rain

While attention is focused on Sunday evening, there are some other games with a chance of rain in week 7.

Atlanta Falcons (-1.5) at Miami Dolphins, O / U 48 | Sunday 1:00 p.m. ET

This is your typical Florida rain storm. While we don’t anticipate any significant rainfall, chances are we will see some intermittent periods where it intensifies and then falls off again. As always, when the temperatures rise at noon, there is a chance that there will be occasional thunder and lightning.

In all honesty, I don’t think the weather could affect Miami’s offensive. You’re a mess, facing a team of Falcons that had an extra week to prepare and get Calvin Ridley back. It’s hard to trust anyone outside of Jaylen Waddle for the Dolphins.

New Orleans Saints (-4) at the Seattle Seahawks, O / U 42.5 | Monday 8:15 p.m. ET

It’s a similar situation to San Francisco, only turned down from 11 to about 4. Rain will be in the area from Sunday and will continue until Tuesday morning. From about noon to midnight on Monday, the total amount of precipitation should not exceed 0.02 to 0.04 inches per hour. We also expect some wind to surface with winds of 15 to 20 mph and gusts of up to 23 mph.

On Saturday we got messages about whether Alex Collins was going to keep up, which is a bit of a surprise given that he didn’t train on Thursday or Friday (groin). I would be more reluctant to play Collins this week given the injury and the addition of IR’s Rashaad Penny who could take on some of the volume.

NFL weather report and forecast for the games of the week 7: Worry free weather

With a handful of games popping up on the radar due to rainy conditions, the rest of the Week 7 calendar should go without a hitch, weather-wise.

Carolina Panthers (-3) at the New York Giants, O / U 42.5 | Sunday 1:00 p.m. ET

I mean, honestly, what on earth is wrong with the Giants? Did Daniel Jones step on a crack? Did Joe Judge walk under a ladder? Do the entire organization owe a voodoo priestess currently sitting somewhere in the bayou listening to a whole room full of dolls in Giants’ jerseys with enough needles to fund a nursing home?

Do you want to know how bad it is this week in the state of the imagination? Dante freaking pettis is a borderline must-see. As for the weather in East Rutherford in week 7, expect 61 degrees, sunny and 10 km / h winds.

New York Jets at New England Patriots (-7), O / U 42.5 | 1:00 p.m. ET

In a week that Damien Harris could have struggled from injury and a fumble, Bill Belichick doubled his top RB. Harris carried the rock 18 times for 101 yards and a score. He now faces the Jets and their defenses in 32nd place, which allows for 32.84 Fantasy Points per game. Harris could go ballistic in week 7.

The weather forecast for week 7 of Foxborough should show sunny skies, 10 km / h wind and highs close to 59 degrees.

Kansas City Chiefs (-4.5) in the Tennessee Titans, O / U 57.5 | Sunday 1:00 p.m. ET

Can anything stop Derrick Henry? I mean, outside of one of the Greek gods literally descending from their perch on Mount Olympus, Henry walks more than 120 meters. To be fair, he could be one of those who live among us until proven otherwise. Just ask Josh Norman for his opinion.

As for the rest of the Nashville weather forecast, expect mostly sunny skies, winds of 13 km / h and temperatures of 80 degrees.

All right Bears fans, you can just scroll down to the next game. This one is fine for a quick TL; DR. Okay, now that they’re gone, Aaron Rodgers told the lady who gave him the double bird and the entire Soldier Field crowd that he owned them, wasn’t the greatest sound bite ever? It hits the discount double check perfectly and then goes straight to the carotid artery. It’s moments like this why we love rivalries and when the players are on the field themselves. Well that’s if the NFL allows it, I guess.

As for the game, start the usual suspects for Green Bay. Davante Adams and Aaron Jones have the chance to lead the week in their positions. As for Washington, Antonio Gibson makes me nervous. As the trading deadline is fast approaching, I might be throwing out some flyers to see if you can find someone who thinks they are more valuable than them.

In Green Bay, for week 7, expect temperatures of 52 degrees, winds of 13 km / h, and cloudy skies.

Cincinnati Bengals near Baltimore Ravens (-6.5), O / U 45.5 | Sunday 1:00 p.m. ET

Lamar Jackson is only a short passerby. A runner who may accidentally throw the ball. Everyone wants to tell me that. Would you be shocked if I told you that Jackson is # 1 in the NFL for Average Intended Air Yards Per Try (10.1) and Air Yards Completed Per Try (8.1) according to NFL Next Gen Stats?

It’s not like he has the third longest pass of the season in air yards or anything (60.8 yards). But yeah, he’s just a running QB. I have it.

In week 7, expect temperatures of 67 degrees, winds of 8 km / h and partly sunny skies in Baltimore.

Chicago Bears at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-13), O / U 47 | Sunday 4:25 p.m. ET

Can we take a moment to talk about how we hit the silly busy season? I mean this is the NFL. The best of the best. Still, we have three spreads of 13 points or more. You see that in college, not in the NFL. This is one of those games. The others are JJ Watt and DeAndre Hopkins’ revenge game against Houston and a clash of the traded QBs with Matthew Stafford and the Rams against Jared Goff and the Lions.

Even if Antonio Brown and Rob Gronkowski are out for the Buccaneers, give me the Bucs, why not? Life is too short to bet that games are boring. Plus, that just means more fantasy points to bypass.

As for the weather forecast for week 7, expect temperatures of 52 degrees and winds of 11 km / h in Tampa.
