In fact, if the current forecast turns out accurate it will be their coldest game of the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nflweather.com\/games\/2025\/divisional-round\/texans-at-patriots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">NFL Weather<\/a>, the kickoff temperature at Mile High Stadium will be 17\u00b0F with a wind chill of 13\u00b0F.

Temperatures dropped below 40\u00b0F in each of their last seven games, including Sunday\u2019s divisional round win over the Houston Texans. New England went 6-1 during that stretch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The Broncos, on the other hand, have played only one such game this season.
