If you attended the Ravens game in Baltimore, you can probably still feel the cold in your bones two weeks later. Today's game will have a similar feel. Strong winds and falling temperatures through the 30s (wind chills in the teens) will make you glad you brought a blanket, extra layers, warm socks, a hat and gloves.

It would've been rather cold regardless. But the move to prime time (this game was originally scheduled for a 1 p.m. start) means temperatures falling into the 20s. A 10-15 mph breeze will produce wind chills in the teens. Dress in layers, wear a hat, gloves, scarf, thick socks and bring a blanket.
