SLATER SCOOP: Miami Dolphins have been given clearance to go to full capacity of 65,000 fans at Hard Rock Stadium, Gov. DeSantis’ spokesperson tells me. The team, though, says their current plan of 13,000 fans remains the same for their next home game on Oct. 25.

Literal insanity.

This pandemic is not going to end until there is a vaccine because so many places insist on following the White House's directive of spreading the disease as quickly and aggressively as possible.

 

[Ale Xander]

Can FL impeach/recall DeSantis? Only half kidding.

 

[nolasoxfan]

Why are you kidding? The guy is threatening the health and safety of all Floridians if that post is true.

 

[Ale Xander]

Giants - Cowboys becomes semi-national (except in the OH River Valley and Jax) with the Pats/Broncos moved to Monday. CBS with a rare NFC matchup.

Buffalo - Titans moved to Tuesday 6PM, television TBD.

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

How are the Titans and Bills going to play? Titans have so many positive cases.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Joe Buck looks powdery.

 

[MuppetAsteriskTalk]

Gronk looked pretty spry on that route.

 

[Ale Xander]

GRONK GRONK GRONK

 

[Captaincoop]

Brady's arm looks stronger than it has in 5 years. I demand more sophisticated drug testing.

 

[Mugsy’s Walk-Off Bunt]

And he completes a 17 yarder to a rookie wideout (who gets separation.)

 

[luckiestman]

That INT was so funny. Never seen a wideout kick a ball to a db like that.

 

[Kliq]

Nick Foles is a theif. Crazy that Brady has outplayed guys like Warner, McNabb, Wilson and Ryan but lost three Super Bowls to Eli and Nick Foles.

 

[MuzzyField]

TD

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

That's another TD for the great Tom Brady.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Can they give TD on review there?

 

[E5 Yaz]

Nick Foles is a theif. Crazy that Brady has outplayed guys like Warner, McNabb, Wilson and Ryan but lost three Super Bowls to Eli and Nick Foles.

Brady didn't lose to Nick Foles ... the defense did. Brady had a great game

 

[Gash Prex]

given they blew the whistle, no idea how it could be a TD

 

[MuzzyField]

Nick Foles is a theif. Crazy that Brady has outplayed guys like Warner, McNabb, Wilson and Ryan but lost three Super Bowls to Eli and Nick Foles.

His haul from his quick trip to JAX equates to a nice down payment on Shad Kahn's little $200-million yacht

 

[MuzzyField]

given they blew the whistle, no idea how it could be a TD

Probably, I have the sound off.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Had +800 on Evans first TD. Thank you refs!

 

[luckiestman]

Stupid rule, doesnt matter

 

[BigSoxFan]

How did we lose a SB to this asshole?

 

[Captaincoop]

How did we lose a SB to this asshole?

It's infuriating to think about. He was Joe Montana for 4 hours.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

How did we lose a SB to this asshole?

Early adoption of this year’s no holding policy, mostly.

 

[mauf]

Not to unduly inject politics here, but did I just hallucinate that Trump ad?

 

[E5 Yaz]

Not to unduly inject politics here, but did I just hallucinate that Trump ad?

No ... back to the game

 

[DanoooME]

Not to unduly inject politics here, but did I just hallucinate that Trump ad?

That should have been shown on SyFy

 

[Mystic Merlin]

All for aggression on fourth down, but ok?

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

How did we lose a SB to this asshole?

Matt Patricia’s defense.

 

[MuppetAsteriskTalk]

It's infuriating to think about. He was Joe Montana for 4 hours.

Seems like he's thrown about 25 perfect passes in his career and 20 of them were in that Super Bowl.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

uh... going ffor it from your 20?

 

[Captaincoop]

Not to unduly inject politics here, but did I just hallucinate that Trump ad?

Not to unduly inject politics, but let me explicitly do that...

 

[E5 Yaz]

Two false starts on the drive by the same guy

 

[Captaincoop]

The Bears are about as bad as 3-1 teams get.

 

[mauf]

I think TB12 overthrew that one, but of course you can’t call that uncatchable.

 

[Captaincoop]

That couldn't have been caught if the receiver had a jet pack.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

That was gonna be pick city

 

[E5 Yaz]

I thought def holding ... on the PI call

 

[mauf]

Does it feel like we’re getting a lot more near-misses on FG and XP blocks?

 

[BigSoxFan]

Gronk is never catching another TD pass

 

[shoosh77]

After being conditioned on prior years’ calling of Off holding its jarring to see what the O-Line gets away with this year.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Yeah, Vea got strangled by the center after beating him off the snap just a handful of plays ago. No call.

 

[shoosh77]

Went low on Brady, THAT should be a flag.

 

[luckiestman]

Pliability

 

[BillWarDamnEagleJay]

How is that not a fumble?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

That’s a catch and fumble, no doubt.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Catch and a fumble. Thought so with the naked eye, and confirmed by replay.
