Saturday\u2019s playoff game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Miami Dolphins<\/u> is going to be quite chilly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Weather forecasters predict there will be sub-zero temperatures at Arrowhead Stadium<\/u> in Kansas City, potentially making the matchup one of the coldest postseason games in NFL history.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

With an 8 p.m. ET kickoff, temperatures are expected to dip below zero. Some projections have temperatures reaching minus 5.\u00a0<\/p>\n
CHIEFS-DOLPHINS BRACE FOR SUB-ZERO TEMPS IN WHAT COULD BE AMONG THE COLDEST NFL PLAYOFF GAMES IN HISTORY<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n The frigid forecast has even prompted the Chiefs to warn fans attending the game to come prepared, with the team advising fans to “cover all exposed skin.”<\/p>\n
Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill<\/u>, who spent the first six years of his NFL career with the Chiefs, is ignoring the organization’s advice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Well, it\u2019s a mindset. I feel like if you believe it\u2019s going to be cold, then you\u2019re going to freeze your b—- off,” Hill said when asked how to stay warm in freezing weather<\/u>, per the Dolphins transcript. “But if you go into this game not even thinking any of that, you\u2019ll be fine.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

I\u2019m not even worried about it at all. I\u2019m going to go out there with no sleeves and tell the rest of the guys it\u2019s a mindset. If those guys see you wearing sleeves, obviously they\u2019re going to think you\u2019re soft. We\u2019re going to go out there and do our thing.”<\/p>\n
For the Dolphins, the weather is a stark contrast to what they\u2019re used to in South Florida.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“No one likes being cold,” Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Thursday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And much like this team, we were up in Santa Clara (California) and had like one coat in our closet. We weren\u2019t used to that at all. But it galvanizes people. Kind of like when you talk to our players, the most fun game, outside of the result, that we played in the last two years, was the one at Buffalo on that Saturday night on a short week last year. So it\u2019s about the team part of it. It\u2019s about doing something that\u2019s difficult inherently. That motivates you as a competitor, I think. And we have a lot of competitors on our team.”\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to ESPN, there has never been a game at Arrowhead Stadium that has reached negative temperatures. The temperature at kickoff for the Wild Card matchup is -2 degrees, according to the Weather Channel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
