The wind may be a different story. He doesn't have the strongest arm but that has nothing to do with where he played college ball or where his mama dropped him.

He only played one playoff game in the cold last year (at home vs Cincy). The difference is that they effectively ran the ball which opened up the passing a game. He was very efficent in that game and didn't turn the ball over. I think the question becomes, if they can't establish the run can Sanchez carry this team and make the plays needed to win the game (reguardless of the weather conditions).
This past week they didn't run the ball well and struggled with 2nd & 3rd and long situations. But I really believe that Sanchez did enough for them to win that game against the Fish, just no one else made a play when they needed it.
Sunday should be a good indication on how good this team is and what kind of QB Sanchez is as of right now. This is a game that they need, let's see if he (and the rest of the team) steps their game for the challange.
