If anybody has shaken hands with Mariota, I will say I am not worried about his hands at all. They are pretty tough, at least tougher than I expected for some reason.

Sounds like a male hand fetish

Is he wanting to wear glove because it's going to be cold or because he wants better grip?

They probably go hand in hand... Not having any feeling in your fingers is probably going to effect grip. Moreso on the touch passes.

I hope to god it doesnt happen but I wouldn't be shocked if his INT-less RZ stats come to an end this week. Combination of an off pass along with frozen catching hands in tight spaces are far from ideal conditions

Isn't that what hand warmers are for?

Seems odd to wear a glove for the whole game and risk messing with his mechanics just because it might be cold for the several seconds that he'll actually have his hands out.

They're guessing this may be the coldest game in Arrowhead history, you are underestimating how quickly your fingertips go cold in that type of weather.... Especially after sweating with his hand pouch and hand warmer

That's a good point. If it's going to be so cold that it might effect our ability to pass, then we ought to focus on a more run oriented game plan though, especially considering KC is 26th in run defense.

Fair enough, but do those hand warmers really cause your hands to sweat that quickly?

I have pretty clammy hands in general but in the 30 seconds between plays, probably

But then people will complain about the game plan...

As long as they put in Henry once or twice a series, then most will probably satisfied. lol

"But why didn't we throw the ball more?? It was only -6 degrees with 20 mph winds. It's not like it was -20 or anything. This coaching staff was just too conservative."
