    You can use a statistic to support your point, which you did. But that doesn’t always mean the other person can’t point out reasons why the statistic isn’t a perfect fit for he context.

    That’s not “disagreeing with facts”. How you apply statistics to your argument, is entirely the strategy behind debate. I agree that that stat is pertinent.

    I just don’t think that stat makes a strong argument when you consider a lot of cold games included are much worse than a clear, sunny 20 degrees. When it’s a 6% difference I’ll take my chances that we can overcome 6% considering it’s not a snow or wind game, just a regular cold game.

    You keep saying clear and sunny and 20 degrees which confirms you don't actually listen. It was 28 last week, 20 yesterday, 19 today. Projected for rain throughout the week and snow throughout next week. It could easily shift even worse in their favor.

    The stat isn't the entire argument but I'm not meaning it to be. The argument should be "oh, this people live in Pittsburgh and experience cold more than those from Jacksonville, it's reasonable to assume that the Pittsburgh players, being more experienced with cold weather player, will be better adjusted to the temperature than the Jacksonville players, who do not have any recent experience in this weather." The stat is just an added bonus because somehow that sentence isn't enough.

    We've got quite the history of Super Bowl winners, just never while they're on the Texans

    This is why this is so frustrating. Because you'll say this and then say I'm wrong when i say it.

    I'm saying there is a slight difference. You literally just said it and I have proof via this quote. THAT is why this argument is annoying lol.

    Also stop editing.

    All I am saying is, even though they may be more used to the cold lately, it’s not cold enough to make that big of a difference. Take that opinion at face value or just stop replying.

    It’s not disagreeing with facts, it’s not me trying not to be wrong. I just disagree with how much impact 20 degrees will have.

    But the difference exists lol. This entire thing has been you saying it doesn't. But that's fine, you finally acknowledge what we've been saying and that's all that matters.

    Go Jags.

    at 20 degrees your fingers lose feeling pretty quick, skin gets tight and painful

    the linemen might not care as much though
