The specter of football weather is real. We're in mid-December, and there are forecasts for extreme cold and some significant winds on the East Coast and parts of the Midwest. Couple that with some teams dealing with terrible quarterback play and a lack of motivation, and we have the potential for a low-scoring Week 16 slate of NFL games.

The deeper I dug on some of these contests, the more inclined I was to wager on them early.
