The nor’easter expected to slam into the East Coast this weekend could have a major impact on Sunday’s New York Giants vs. Tennessee Titans game in East Rutherford, N.J.
The National Weather Service is forecasting an inch or more of rain in the East Rutherford area on Saturday, followed by another half- to three-quarters of an inch of rain on Sunday. Temperatures are expected to be in the mid-60s, with steady winds around 20 MPH and gusts of up to 38 MPH.
Sunday will mark Jameis Winston’s first start
at quarterback for the Giants this season after the season-ending injury to Jaxson Dart. The wet, blustery conditions could make it a difficult day to throw, catch, kick, and hang on to the football.
In John Harbaugh’s first season as head coach, the Giants have built a power running game that they will likely need to rely heavily upon Sunday afternoon.
Conditions could also make travel to and from the game treacherous. If you are planning to attend, leave yourself extra time.
