At first glance, the Chicago Bears hosting the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round would seem like a great advantage for the home team. The Rams are a dome team that had road games in San Francisco, Jacksonville, Charlotte, and Nashville this season. The two cold-weather cities they could have played in, Philadelphia and Baltimore, were in the books by mid-October.

The early forecast for Chicago next Sunday looks rough, with wind chills around or a little below 0 and actual air temperatures in the single digits.
