The NFL weather report for Sunday’s Week 17 slate is an ugly one, including rain and wind in a handful of games.

With this in mind, let’s dig into the latest NFL weather report for Sunday, including how rain and wind could affect Jets vs. Bills and Dolphins vs. Browns this afternoon.

NFL Weather Report for Jets vs. Bills

According to the National Weather Service, there is a 100% chance of rain with winds of 16-21 mph, and gusts up to 40 mph, in Orchard Park this afternoon.

Specifically, 18-21 mph winds are expected throughout today’s game, which won’t make it easy for Aaron Rodgers and Josh Allen to connect on deep, downfield throws.

The betting market appears to be taking note as well as the total has dipped from 46 to 45.5 at some sportsbooks and could continue to fall as more bettors become aware of this forecast.

With a likely matchup between Tyler Huntley and Dorian Thompson-Robinson, scoring may already be an issue for both offenses.

Now add in the NFL weather report for this game and it’s easy to understand why the total is just 33.

The breezes for Dolphins vs. Browns are similar to Jets vs. Bills, as 20-24 mph winds are expected to blow as today’s game progresses, with gusts touching 44 mph.

However, rain does seem much more likely in Buffalo than in Cleveland as the precipitation could clear out by kickoff.
