Week 8 is underway across the NFL after another big-time Green Bay Packers win, and Sunday’s slate has more excellent matchups on tap. However, the NFL weather report isn’t overly promising for some games down South.
Three games are set to take place Sunday in Florida, including a critical NFC South battle between the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Strong rains and stormy conditions could affect the game, so adjust your fantasy football lineups accordingly.
Similar conditions can be expected as the Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots face off at Hard Rock Stadium. Luckily, the Jacksonville Jaguars have a lower chance of rain as they play the Indianapolis Colts.
The best game on the Sunday slate doesn’t seem to be in danger of bad weather, though. The Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills are set to compete in a critical AFC matchup with major playoff implications. Lamar Jackson is set to return for the Ravens, so they’ll need their quarterback to put up big numbers.
Check in with MySportsWeather.com for weather updates throughout Week 8 and during the rest of the 2026 season. Here’s a closer look at the forecast entering Sunday’s games.
