Bad weather for the Patriots

With the Patriots ready to clinch home field advantage throughout the playoffs, does anyone think that might work to their DISADVANTAGE? As this season has illustrated with just a few close calls, it is nearly impossible to stop their passing game. However, if mid - late January brings terrible weather (i.e sleet, ice, heavy snow) to Foxboro, wouldn't that seem to favor a team less dependent on the pass (i.e Jaguars, Steelers or even Indianapolis)? I know it might still be a stretch, but personally I think the Patriots, who have demonstrated very little with their running game, might have a tougher time at home than in Jacksonville or Indianapolis.

the Pats don't win with long passes (but wasn't that one against the Steelers awesome!). Brady and his receivers are the masters of the five to seven yard gainers. Weather is not a problem
