We are on to Miami: Official week 1 pregame thread

[Love The Drake]

Praying the Inevitable DPI call we get covering Hill on a badly thrown deep ball doesn’t impact the win loss column.

There is the other guy who wrote for the Detroit Free Press. Has been on ESPN but was fired?. Name escapes me.

Rob Parker, but his hate is directed at Brady

He only comes on air when Brady loses

IIRC he was also big on the "Gate I and II" trains.

The biggest and most important Xs and Os factor is the one that no one is talking about.

Sure, Byron Jones being out with injury has created a hole at CB2 for them that will be easily exploitable, and their DL can be run on fairly easily. They've also got issues along the OL - RT Austin Jackson and LG Liam Eichenberg should be exploited mercilessly by our revamped front 7.

But neither of these presents the biggest matchup advantage for the Patriots. No no no. That would be the coaching matchup, and not even due to the experience deficit on the Miami side. The single biggest factor in this game is the fact that their head coach is literally a pencil neck geek and a beta male, going up against the alpha of the entire league. Your team simply cannot take you seriously when you look like he does. My 4 year old niece has broader shoulders than this 40 year old virgin.

The Patriots only lose this game if they **** around. To be fair it's likely that they do, since this is a meaningless September preseason game. But even if they do, they may pull this one off just based on pure talent and a massive advantage in manhood alone.

Scott is certainly up there. He is beyond blatant with his hate. I've never heard him say anything remotely neutral about the team.

Marshall Faulk has also historically been 100% negative on Brady/Pats, but I feel like he's not really around anymore. Maybe I'm just not watching whatever he's on nowadays.

It’s not a desperation move. It’s just pointless. An extra couple of days won’t get you accustomed to the heat and humidity down there.

FLA weather got PATS 16NO banned.

Odd choice. Palm Beach Atlantic, in West Palm, doesn't even have football facilities. I guess they will do walkthroughs on soccer or lacrosse fields. Kaiser U is nearby and is an NAIA school. I had expected they'd be at FAU, in Boca, which has great facilities. In any event, they are a long way from South Beach distractions (70 miles or so).

Maybe a lot of Miami area schools and universities don't want to help the Pats out....or maybe, as you said, BB wants the team away from South Beach

That’s his on air schtick who knows what his real opinion is.

He also said Aaron Judge will be more the face of the Yankees than Derek Jeter ever was which is kinda comical.

Florida is kind of fun to drive in. It's a little like the wild west. I had fun driving in Dominican Republic too. You can pass cops on double yellow lines, going over the speed limit and they don't give a f*ck. Also, red lights are more of a suggestion than an actual rule.

Floridians take road rage to another level.

We are now at 67 straight days of 90+ degree weather in WPB, 2nd longest streak in history. A new record is coming by the weekend.

It’s a convenient location if you’re Robert Kraft.

It’s been hot as **** down here. You see Florida play Utah the other night? One of the Utah corners puked his guts up on the field and the game wasn’t even out of the first quarter yet.

Love Palm Beach, for different reasons than RK, it's just such a beautiful area and the beach and houses there are incredible!!!

I wonder if visiting teams prefer playing in the humid/hot Florida or thin air Mile High

I guess someone put it on YouTube.

Probably the latter. You can get acclimated to altitude more quickly than the heat and humidity down here.

That whole area is gorgeous. Palm Beach, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach. When I was 16 or 17, my friends and I took a ride down to Delray Beach to try to see them blow up that mansion from Bad Boys II. Couldn’t get anywhere near it, but we could kind of see if from a distance and the entire area rumbled. Then we went and smoked some weed in a Home Depot parking lot.
