michaelredd9 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Prolly nothing to worry about but I'd switch kickers at a minimum. Report: Concerns over field condition in Miami Posted by Josh Alper on November 4, 2018, 7:44 AM EST https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/category/rumor-mill/ When the Jets played the Dolphins in Miami last season, one of the storylines of the game was the shoddy condition of the field at Hard Rock Stadium. The Dolphins issued a statement after the game saying the field was safe, but “not up to the standard we expect from a playability standpoint” after a college football game was played on the field on a rainy Saturday night. It looks like history may be repeating itself. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that there are concerns about the condition of the field heading into Sunday’s game between the Jets and Dolphins. The field did not look good on Saturday when the University of Miami and Duke played during another rainstorm in South Florida. Schefter quotes a source calling the field quality “horrendous” and we’ll find out in a few hours if it’s going to impact the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelredd9 Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 I bet Frank Gore is a mudder. A North-South running style works better on a muddy field. Both Gore and Drake run N-S but Drake has a little shake and bake. Also, Gore has lots of experience with bad field conditions from his time in San Francisco. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's as bad as the reports are saying then yes. Bad footing = turnovers The Jets are blitz happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we all agree that the risk of injury to all players goes up and how is that acceptable to the NFLPA? No doubt. It could be a disaster.

Got my best tans at Oct -Dec Niner games. Now, if he'd been a Raider playing at the Oakland Coliseum then that would be another story... But, I bet Gore is good mudder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
