Geez man. Heat doesn't vary to you I guess. All hot is the same and feels the same. You obviously feel that sitting in the shade and sitting in the sun....it's the exact same. So you honestly believe in last years game, at 78 degrees by half time is equally as hot as this game. Do you honestly believe that? When the Buffalo Bills took on the Miami Dolphins in southern Florida this past Sunday, everyone quickly realized that the excessive heat was going to be a problem. One report stated that by 10:00 AM Eastern, it was already 120 degrees Fahrenheit on the field. Wide receiver Stefon Diggs recently made an appearance on the Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz and he was asked about how the extreme temperatures affected him. “I have never been that tired in my life,” Diggs replied. “I had full body cramps after the game. Full body cramps! I’ve never experienced that in my life.” Diggs also believes that Hard Rock Stadium is set up to make the opposing team uncomfortable. “The Miami side is under the shade. Our side is in the sun that, you know, turns those grapes into raisins,” he said with a little laugh. https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2022/9/29/23376857/stefon-diggs-dehydration-bills-dolphins-nfl-week-3

I would assume Jackson is playing then.

It was not similar conditions last year. It was below 80 degrees and mostly cloudy by half time. It was 81 degrees by the end of the 1st quarter. https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/us/fl/miami/KMIA/date/2021-9-19

Why were you banned? Our WR depth was fine. Remember when you said we would be in trouble if Davis or Diggs went down? Well we put up 34 offensive points in 3 quarters against the Titans and Kumerow made some plays. He also made a play against the Dolphins but then got hurt. Are you going to criticize Beane because our 6th and 7th WR aren't starting quality?

That was awful. I really hope he’s okay…I hated seeing that.

I'm holding out for a little hope that something crazy happens and there's no rain. There was 70%-80% chance of rain in Atlanta this weekend as of yesterday. I was checking it a lot because I'm buying furniture Saturday and was dreading having to move some stuff in the rain. As of today....no rain expected now. Maybe the storm showers evade Baltimore too.

I hope the players mom’s don’t have an issue with it.

I don’t know what the rules are. They may not be able to use anything you mentioned. Our training staff I’m 100% sure discussed options.

Still looks a little sensitive....we really need him back.

That would be a good idea. Something to keep our players at least somewhat protected. I believe many players were getting IV's at halftime. If the Dolphins had the same issue with the sun, there be no issues. They both are equally affected and it's a balanced playing field. I played against Florida Atlantic which is in Boca and that sun is unbearable. Our SS had to go to the hospital after the game for severe heat cramps....he was stuck in a fetal position. If it wasn't for us to be able to sit in a shaded dugout in between innings, more of us would have had heat related issues. We aren't moving as much as football players so I can understand why Bills players were dropping.

Why do you hate deer?

And he's killing it there.

The sun shines through the north endzone and doesn't directly hit one sideline. Miami specifically designed the stadium this reason to give them an advantage and it worked. I feel in any conditions, each team should have an even playing field. Then excuses can't be made.

Is the wind tunnel designed to specifically blow all the wind on the visitor sidelines?

Not a freak storm or wind but certain days can be hotter than the average heat index right? Some days are hotter than others. One team doesn't get the 15 degree benefit and the other does. It was predictable but that doesn't mean even with the best preparation, you're not majorly affected.

Yes, I forgot about the 17 game schedule.

From what I understand, it has to be equal. Since the Dolphins didn't use canopy's or tents, we couldn't either. Its the way the NFL makes sure each team has the same resources and nothing is "unequal".

When players physically start dropping on the field and not able to finish the game because of cold, then there's a point.

It has nothing to do with sensitivity. When you're on a specific teams message board and the majority of the time you just complain about them, you're going to have push back.

And the weather isn't always the same in 35 years. This game in particular was brutal for heat.

Because of this.

Maybe Poyer isn't re-signed and we put that money towards the OL next year. But, hopefully they get it together like that the end of last year.

His game log shows 16 games last year but I did look up the Panthers game and missed it. He still has been available for us 99% of the time.

He's never missed a game in his career.
