Wind

I know that wind is only suppose to have a "slight" affect on the kicking game.
But how much is it affecting the passing game...... if any?

It seems the winds are always pretty high and was wondering how much of an affect it has.
Do domed games have better passing numbers than stadium games? I'll try to check a couple of leagues to see the numbers. If you guys have any numbers from your league post em up.

Could the winds be turned off in the beta leagues for a season or two to test it? Or turn the teams into domed ones.

Maybe this has been tested already idk. Either way Id be curious of the results.

I've only researched 40 games on two dome teams in one league so far. Took a bit to setup a spreadsheet for it but now it should go more smoothly.

So far:
Dome games avg 19.2 Comp, 30.9 Att, 182.4 Yds, 0.9 TD, 1.2 INT, 73.8 QBR in 18 games
Wind games avg 20.6 Comp, 32.2 Att, 206.4 Yds, 1.1 TD, 1.0 INT, 80.4 QBR in 22 games

This is no where near a fair picture yet as it is only a lil less than halfway through one season. I'd like to get 3 or more full seasons worth of info to get a better picture for this league. And maybe grab some data from a couple other random but full leagues.

There's a ton of other factors that come into play I know. But I just want to get a vague picture of the winds affect if any and shoot it past yall to analysis.
