The weather conditions for this Saturday’s playoff game between the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs will be absolutely brutal.
According to the National Weather Service, the wind chill in Kansas City will drop to -30 degrees on Saturday night. It’s being described as “dangerously cold.”
Despite how frigid the conditions will be at Arrowhead Stadium this weekend, the NFL will not reschedule the Dolphins-Chiefs game.
“An NFL source told me yesterday there will be no schedule change for the Dolphins-Chiefs game,” Andy Slater reported on Thursday.

If the National Weather Service’s projections are right, this Saturday’s game will be the coldest the Dolphins have ever played in. That’s not ideal for a team that wants to air the football out.
With that said, NFL fans should expect to see a heavy dose of rushing attempts this weekend. The Dolphins are hoping Raheem Mostert will be good to go after missing back-to-back games.
Kickoff for the Dolphins-Chiefs game is at 8 p.m. ET on Peacock.
