Players and media forced to leave the field because of lightning. Not sure how long the delay will last. Not set to kickoff until 7:30ish anyways, but it'll be after that now.

They are now repainting the lines on this soggy mess, as the rain washed the paint off because it was fresh just before it rained.
What a mess.
The field looks absolutely ugly. There are basically no yardlines and there are puddles everywhere. What a mess.
I was going to bet on the over, until I saw the mess.. Not sure there will be a lot of scoring here.
Ugh, I took the over. Doesn't look good for me.
There are the goal lines painted and maybe 3 or 4 other 5-yard interval line painted on the field - that's it.
I don't think I've seen a field this bad in the NFL ever.
For the record I picked Miami to get their first win tonight....
Heinz field isn't that old. You would think they would have far better drainage that what it looks like. How much rain has fallen?Quote:

That punt stuck like glue.
Being a Miami fan myself, this has been a tough year. I was really considering splurging for Sunday Ticket so I could watch the fish, wow, that was a good call.Quote:

It would be ironic if Miami owned the worst and the best record in history.
On the lines, with the blue and yellow lines, you'd think they could place the field white lines "on the field" as well.
Ben recovers a fumble and slides about 4 yards. Well, I can't confirm that as the lines are not there. :biglaugh:
Well, Mary Jane...er....Ricky's first carry for like 200 years was for 3-4 yards and a first down.
