One day, every Week 16 game will be played in a stadium with a roof, but this year, we’ll have to settle for five such contests: Buccaneers-Cowboys, Vikings-Lions, Giants-Cowboys, Rams-Cardinals, and Steelers-Saints. If you want to be as safe as possible with your kicker, grab someone from one of these games.

NFL Week 16 weather updates
The Bengals-Browns game has about a 15-percent chance of seeing very light snow late, but it’s not enough reason to bench anyone you’d normally play from that game.
WEEK 16 PPR RANKINGS: Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end
The biggest weather concern of the week is in the Bay Area on Monday night, where Broncos-Raiders is almost certain to see rain early and play in sustained 15-plus MPH winds. With neither QB possessing rocket arms, passing games could be limited. That makes Denver WR sleepers DaeSean Hamilton and Tim Patrick a little riskier despite a great matchup. Both still profile as WR3s, but chances are you have a safer option.
The Chiefs-Seahawks Sunday night game has a 30-40-percent chance of showers, and the Bears-49ers late-afternoon kickoff has a minor chance of showers late. Neither game should be affected much, if at all, by the weather.
