I hear you. I live a few miles from the Georgia border. It gets plenty hot here in Chattanooga. We are ringed by mountain ridges, we get very little air movement to boot. I have often said the weather forecasters have an easy job the next 4 months. Just post the same forecast...high in the low to mid 90's with a chance of afternoon thundershowers. Thundershowers sound cooling, but end up spiking up the already high humidity once they pass.

this time of year, 70's some clouds it might rain some but overall its great bar b cueing weather

Most stadiums in Florida are built to provide a shade side to the stadium. I will say a 1PM start doesn't give much advantage to either side. Shade doesn't begin to show much advantage until late in a 1PM game.

Our own stadium has a sun side, the north side to the stadium. It's a bit of a disadvantage early in the season, but later in the season we get the sun(if any) at the time you year you want all the sun you can get.

Home teams are always going to take the side of the field that provides any edge they can get.

On that note, that is why my season tickets are on the north side of the stadium for the reason mentioned. I was glad to see our 1st home game isn't until week three. You can bake during those first few weeks. I have always found myself hoping for a cloudy and or rainy day for the opener. By week 3 the weather has usually shifted enough to at least provide a cooling breeze.

Sure, but Hard Rock stadium notoriously went to the extreme in this regard. Respectfully, having been on the wrong side for 1 PM at that stadium a few times there's a marked difference even at kickoff. For example, 4 years ago at kickoff there was a 30 degree difference for a 1 PM game at the start of the 2nd quarter: https://www.foxweather.com/weather-news/miami-dolphins-stadium-heat-minnesota-vikings. Mind you this was a game in mid October as well- wild.

In any case though, I ain't sitting in that nonsense as compared to enjoying the game on TV anymore. It's just not worth to feel like I'm having a heat stroke sitting for more than 5 minutes. My entire extended family are Dolphins fans so we usually end up at a game, but not until snowbird season.

No chiefs, rams, chargers, patriots, packers, lions, bills, broncos, niners or eagles? Is it me or does that look like a favourable schedule?

12-5 no problem ?

5 out of the bottom 7 teams (excluding browns) from last season, and 2 out of the top 10 from last year.

That looks an easy schedule....how on earth will we fuck this up? ?

I believe that maybe Concepción will be our Josh Cribbs and get us great field position so D.A didnt really have to work that hard, and so we won YEA , Remember the next year ? we had all those primetime games VS good teams, Oh did we fucking suck, Urgh, so thats what i can see happening. so in 2019's draft we will be looking for a qb all over again
