If you’re going to be at Arrowhead Stadium for the Tennessee Titans’ game against the Kansas City Chiefs, you better bundle up — it’s going to be cold.
It’s going to be a cold one in Kansas City on Sunday.
The Tennessee Titans are looking at temperatures near zero at kickoff against the Chiefs.

Umm yeah, that’s miserable.
Plus there appears to be some wintry weather in Kansas City as well.
Tough night for travel in Kansas City. Will be back at this exit tomorrow morning for @Titans-@Chiefs pic.twitter.com/VDoMkUP8YD

And no, that’s not football weather. It’s just crappy weather, which makes for a lower quality football game.
I mean there are only a few games a year played in the snow.
Nearly half the season is played in rather warm temperatures.
In the south really, this is football weather. I never played in snow in high school but I played plenty of games w/ kickoff temp over 90

Football is football, honestly. Warm, cold, rainy, dry, whatever it may be.
And if you’re a Titans fan, it would be a shame to see the weather affect the outcome of the AFC South division title.
Marcus Mariota isn’t exactly accustomed to playing in the cold weather. He’s obviously a professional, but there’s still no way to know how the cold weather could affect his play, until he actually gets out there.
Of course I don’t care how much you’ve played in cold weather, six degrees is extreme. I don’t think anyone can get used to those temperatures.
It’s going to be a ground and pound game on Sunday. Titans running back Demarco Murray could end up being the difference.
If Tennessee manages to win this game, they will be on the fast track to the AFC South division title.
