Mother Nature could play the best defense in Sunday night's AFC Championship Game showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots.
Earlier this season, the Patriots prevailed in a 43-40 shootout decided by a last-second field goal. The weather, however, could siphon such crooked tallies from the conference's top-two scoring offenses.
The National Weather Service originally projected an arctic blast hitting Kansas City with sub-zero temperatures. Some sun has since shined on the forecasts, as it now anticipates a low of 21 degrees on Sunday evening.
Of course, that's still quite cold.
