There’s nothing we have to do differently. Just go out there and compete.”</p> <p id="U5EYXE">Waddle added that he can count on his hands how many times he’s seen snow, but he doesn’t plan on bringing extra socks. </p> <p id="RX5RW9">“Our competitive spirit, shoot,” he said. “That’s what I’m going to bring.” </p> <p id="qJg7OB">Running back Raheem Mostert is looking forward to the added workload that comes with wintery conditions. </p> <p id="swWSqe">“Honestly, it’s going to be a ground type of game, I guess you can say,” Mostert said. “That’s what I like to see it as. There’s going to be more carries or whatever. If we could throw the ball, that’d be beautiful. But I feel like snow and rain are quite similar.</p> <p id="Ig26fS">“I think the cold really makes it a lot harder to catch, but it’s definitely a game where it’s also like a rainy game where you’re going out there and running backs do a little bit better in the cold because they’re ready for handoffs.”</p> <p id="44a9cm">Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa won’t spend too much time worrying about the forecast with a divisional bout just days away. </p> <p id="fSWu5H">“I think for me, it’s understanding that it could be many things. It could be snowing,” Tagovailoa said on Wednesday. “It could rain. I don’t know. I think for me at least, I can speak for myself, it’s a mindset thing. And if I’m too focused and worried about if it’s too cold, can I grab the ball, can I not, then I would say I’m focused on the wrong things. It would be hard to play that way going over there against a really good team.”</p> </div>
