⛅ Chargers vs. Bills weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 1 p.m. ET
- Location: Highmark Stadium (Orchard Park, N.Y.)
- Forecast: 62 °F, partly cloudy
- Wind: 8 mph N
Betting + fantasy impact: I wouldn't anticipate the weather getting in the way of Justin Herbert vs. Josh Allen. Can anything slow down the Bills QB right now? L.A. ranks fourth-worst in passing yards allowed through two weeks.
⛅ Panthers vs. Browns weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 1 p.m. ET
- Location: Huntington Bank Field (Cleveland)
- Forecast: 67 °F, partly cloudy with moderate winds
- Wind: 12 mph NW
Betting + fantasy impact: We're expecting a mild Sunday in Cleveland. The Browns have lost three of their last four home openers since acquiring Deshaun Watson.
⛈️ Chiefs vs. Dolphins weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 1 p.m. ET
- Location: Hard Rock Stadium (Miami Gardens, Fla.)
- Forecast: 84 °F, rain expected with chance of thunderstorms
- Wind: 6 mph NE
Betting + fantasy impact: Rain is expected in this AFC matchup, with an additional chance of thunderstorms. The Kenneth Walker-led rushing attack is off to an incredible start for the Chiefs, so expect K.C. to lean heavily on their new RB amid wet Miami conditions.
💨 Titans vs. Giants weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 1 p.m. ET
- Location: MetLife Stadium (East Rutherford, N.J.)
- Forecast: 64 °F, slight chance of rain with moderate winds
- Wind: 13 mph NW
Betting + fantasy impact: Look out for moderately strong winds in this game (gusts up to 25 mph). That's a recipe for offensive sloppiness with Cam Ward and Jameis Winston starting at quarterback. I'm backing the Under on one of the lowest totals of the week (38.5 points).
⛅ Bengals vs. Steelers weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 1 p.m. ET
- Location: Acrisure Stadium (Pittsburgh)
- Forecast: 64 °F, partly cloudy
- Wind: 10 mph NW
Betting + fantasy impact: It's expected to be a mild day in Pittsburgh as Aaron Rodgers takes on a Bengals defense that's yet to give up a passing TD this season. Cincinnati (3.5-point favorite) is 3-1 in Pittsburgh with Joe Burrow at QB.
💨 Seahawks vs. Commanders weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 1 p.m. ET
- Location: Northwest Stadium (Landover, Md.)
- Forecast: 69 °F, partly cloudy with moderate winds
- Wind: 13 mph NW
Betting + fantasy impact: Moderately strong winds could play a role here as Sam Darnold returns to Seattle's lineup opposite Commanders backup QB Marcus Mariota. Oddsmakers expect low scoring, with the total set at just 40.5
⛅ Patriots vs. Jaguars weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 1 p.m. ET
- Location: EverBank Stadium (Jacksonville, Fla.)
- Forecast: 83 °F, partly cloudy with a slight chance of thunderstorms
- Wind: 5 mph NE
Betting + fantasy impact: This is a forecast to check back on as Sunday approaches, in case the slight chance of thunderstorms increases in likelihood in Jacksonville. Drake Maye is off to a very poor start ahead of his matchup against an underrated Jaguars secondary.
⛅ Cardinals vs. 49ers weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 4:05 p.m. ET
- Location: Levi's Stadium (Santa Clara, Calif.)
- Forecast: 67 °F, clear
- Wind: 4 mph NW
Betting + fantasy impact: There's nothing of concern in the Cardinals vs. 49ers forecast in Santa Clara. Clear conditions mean Brock Purdy can continue his red-hot play to start the season. He's already scored six total TDs compared to just one turnover.
⛈️ Vikings vs. Buccaneers weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 4:05 p.m. ET
- Location: Raymond James Stadium (Tampa, Fla.)
- Forecast: 84 °F, partly cloudy with scattered thunderstorms in the area
- Wind: 8 mph NE
Betting + fantasy impact: Thunderstorms aren't expected to hit Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, but given there are isolated storms in the Tampa area means that could easily change. Throw in the current form of these offenses, and Under 42.5 is a solid play.
☁️ Ravens vs. Cowboys weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 4:25 p.m. ET
- Location: Marcanã Stadium (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)
- Forecast: 71 °F, cloudy and humid
- Wind: 4 mph SE
Betting + fantasy impact: It's set to be very humid (up to 90%) for the 2026 Brazil game. Just like the last two Brazil games, though those were played in Sao Paulo, there are field condition concerns in Rio de Janeiro. The high humidity could make the footing even worse.
💨 Rams vs. Broncos weather report
- Date: Sunday, Sept. 27 @ 8:20 p.m. ET
- Location: Empower Field at Mile High (Denver)
- Forecast: 82 °F, cloudy with moderate winds and a slight chance of rain
- Wind: 12 mph SE
Betting + fantasy impact: Moderate winds could impact both passing attacks. The difference in QBs is why the Rams are a 2.5-point road favorite. Matthew Stafford put his poor opener behind him, while Bo Nix is one of this season's worst passers by EPA/play so far.
⛅ Eagles vs. Bears weather report
- Date: Monday, Sept. 28 @ 8:15 p.m. ET
- Location: Soldier Field (Chicago)
- Forecast: 63 °F, partly cloudy
- Wind: 3 mph SE
Betting + fantasy impact: We're projecting mild conditions in Chicago on Monday night. Though the Bears got good news on Caleb Williams' injury this week, they could be down to their third-string QB against the Eagles. Philly is a 4.5-point road favorite as a result.
