Does a bad field equate to helping an offense or defense?

 

Am seeing reports of field in Miami being in horrible conditions.....sloppy,slippery with standing water everywhere.

 

Thoughts?

It could potentially make the game more sloppy, players slipping, more turnovers etc. I think it helps the Running game if anything.

A bad field makes no difference in projections.

 

It's impossible to predict which player will slip and when.

 

Offensive slips lead to bad runs, incompletions and maybe turnovers. Defensive slips lead to big plays and points. They offset.

A receiver knows where he is going, the defensive player has to react to that-playing DB is the toughest in rainy, slippery conditions. Of course if you have a Larry Czonka or Earl Campbell type of RB that helps too, but trying to cover a receiver is tougher than tackling power back.

John Madden always said it helps the offense because they know what they are going to do and the defense doesn't so that makes them a step slower.

Don't know but we start 2 Defenses and I'm starting Jets & Dophins. Haha, will have to see how this goes.
