New England Patriots: Opening night weather report

The New England Patriots shouldn’t have any weather issues as they unveil the Super Bowl LI banner ahead of their week 1 game against Kansas City.

Robert Kraft surely has some magic up his sleeve as the New England Patriots unveil their championship banner and celebrate their Super Bowl LI win before the NFL’s opening night game.

Weather should not be an issue for both the ceremony and the game.

With the ceremony set to begin at 8 PM, fans at Gillette Stadium can expect clear skies and cool temperatures. It should be around 65 degrees, but that temperature will continue to drop as well. The game will likely end around midnight, when the temperature should be around 59 degrees.

This is perfect sweater weather, and after fears that rain my dampen the Gillette Stadium party earlier this week, fans are in for an amazing night. When you think of New England football in the fall, this is how it’s supposed to be played. Crisp cool air, cold beers, and a team that just keeps winning.

If your’e heading out for the game, maybe take that oversized Tom Brady jersey so you can throw it over your favorite Bill Belichick hoodie as the night goes on. That said, I’m sure we will see some fans shirtless and painted, waiving their Roger Gooddell clown towels thanks to Barstool Sports.

The Patriots and Chiefs will kick the game off at 8:30 PM, and hopefully we get to see a ton of fireworks on the field after the opening ceremony. Rob Gronkowski is back and healthy, and Tom Brady has tons of new weapons like Mike Gillislee and Brandin Cooks. New England’s defense is retooled as well, as Rob Ninkovich is out, but Stephon Gilmore is in. Gilmore and Malcol Butler should form one of the toughest secondaries in the NFL this season. The quest for another Super Bowl title begins tonight in Foxboro, and you definitely don’t want to miss it!
