Time Change: Broncos vs. Packers Week 15 — Kickoff Time Under Watch as Front Range Weather Swings Continue

DENVER, CO — Week 15 brings a classic matchup out west as the Green Bay Packers travel to Denver to face the Broncos, with late-week Front Range wind shifts and temperature swings keeping fans alert heading into Sunday.

As of the latest National Weather Service forecast for the Denver area, Sunday (Dec. 14, 2025) is currently trending dry and mild for mid-December: mostly sunny with a high near 63°F

, followed by Sunday night dipping to around 37°F. While snow does not appear to be the main factor at this time, breezier conditions earlier in the weekend could still impact travel and game-day comfort—especially in an open stadium environment.

Despite the weather watch, the schedule remains unchanged. The game is still set for Packers at Broncos on Sunday, December 14, 2025 at 2:25 PM MT (4:25 PM ET)

at Empower Field at Mile High, airing on CBS. 

Bottom line: kickoff is still locked in for Sunday afternoon in Denver, and the current forecast points to a

clear, playable weather window. Fans should still plan ahead for quick temperature changes, stay layered, and remember that Denver’s altitude can make the sun feel warm early—then cooler fast once it fades.

Originally slated for 1:00 p.m. Eastern (12:00 p.m. local time), the game remains scheduled for that time for now, but league officials have left the door open for a

Early forecasts for Sunday have painted an ugly picture:

• Temperatures hovering around 20°F (about –6°C)

With an outdoor venue like Lambeau Field, that combination isn’t just uncomfortable – it can become a safety concern. Heavy morning snow means slick roads and tough travel for fans and stadium workers. Strong winds can affect equipment set-up, camera positions, and even field maintenance. And a frozen, snow-dusted surface can quickly turn into a nightmare for players trying to plant, cut, throw, and kick.

League officials, working alongside the Packers, Broncos, local Wisconsin authorities and broadcast partners, are monitoring the forecast closely rather than gambling with the conditions. Any potential time change would be intended to provide:

• Extra minutes in the morning to clear snow from the field, stands and surrounding walkways

The weather could still be brutally cold at kickoff, but the hope is that by pushing things back slightly – if necessary – the heaviest snow band will have passed, winds will stabilize, and visibility will improve, turning the contest into a classic cold-weather December game instead of a full-blown snow emergency.

Fans are strongly advised to monitor updates from the Packers, Broncos and the NFL leading up to Sunday. While no official time change has been announced yet, a short delay of up to around 30 minutes
