Just listened to DEN's beat reporter on Cowherd, and the question was brought up about playing in Jersey in February during the statistically-coldest week of the year. The reporter said that it wouldn't be a problem, because Knoshown Moreno is from New Jersey and ran for 220 yards in a cold game earlier this year.
I'm by no means a defensive coordinator, but it seems to me that the exact gameplan the Seahawks had against SF (shutting down the SF o-line and Gore--who're better than the DEN O-line and Moreno), limiting the slants and taking their chances in man coverage against flutterballs deep into the wind (and was really only broken down by Kaepernick's speed) would be a viable option.
I think it'll be fun to watch, but I'm getting a vibe like the old Parcells' Giants. Rough D, Rough running game, Game-manager-Plus QB--destroying Elway's Broncos and holding down Kelly's Bills.
