What if the Miami heaters were too warm?

Dolphins on a bench that is accidentally 350 degrees, what a shame...

This story makes it confusing around what the rule actually is. Sounds like the rule is both teams need to use the same equipment but the story just points out the Dolphins sideline. If that actually is the rule then it would seem the Chargers had to be using them as well.

Tus is still gonna have to throw a block of ice with his little tiny baby hands. Should be the only advantage the Bills need. That and plenty of hot chicken broth, like they had last year when it was 5 degrees out.

yes according to the Equity Rule that would be the case. Not sure if any media took the time to look at the Rams sideline to see if those heaters were there as well. 
 

Also, it’s not clear if Miami even had them turned on. Staff may have just installed them in case it got colder.

This stuff is getting funny.  The Bills will be using heaters/heated benches.  Period.

 

Yeah let's risk all sorts of muscle injuries just so that Miami might have a couple more than us! It's a foolproof plan with absolutely no downside whatsoever

The way I read it is anything that the home team is using, needs to be made available for the away team as well.

 

The away team is allowed to bring what they want.  Similar to how the bills brought pop up shades to Miami.

Exactly.  The fish players will be miserable enough with the heaters.  Like Poyer said, in his interview, they don't like playing

in the cold but they know how to do it.  It is an advantage having more experience in anything and this weather is one of them.

The Dolphins have been playing in that stadium for 35 years and we lose one game due to extreme heat and people go bananas.

We don't need to focus on that stuff. We're a much better team. Let them bring as many heaters as they want. 

Yeah but sabotage them just before kickoff.

I legit didn't know before.   Which makes me REALLLY stupid because I've been there several times.  I just assumed they had more cooling.

135 degrees is uncommonly hot for a sideline.  Eric Wood and Sal C both said it was different than previous heat games there

We should have heaters on the sideline.  It doesn’t matter that Miami will be allowed them as well. Our players don’t wanna be out there in the cold with no heat. Period

Agreed. Now who wants to volunteer to stick a fork in the outlet on Miami's sideline?

I think they should provide BROKEN heaters to both side..  Pysche them out thinking they will have helmut and seat warmers only to realize they are akin to park benches.

I'm not saying that it wasn't an unfair advantage.  I think it was ... and it was very dangerous.

 

I'm just pointing out that it was the 35th regular season game there between these two teams and this last game was an outlier.

 

Furthermore, the stadium was designed an built before any of the current Dolphins players were even born.

 

I'm not sure what the Dolphins were supposed to do in that situation.  If anything, Bills fans should be upset with the NFL for not stepping in somehow.  I just don't get the anger directed toward the Dolphins for that game.

The sideline covers were only added in 2016, so thats only 6 games, but your point stands

It’s funny when they have that advantage and still lose but that doesn’t make it not an advantage 😂

Vikings played there last year and there was a 30 degree difference; Vikings' sideline was 120 degrees.  Vikings won.
