Buccaneers G Marpet doubtful for MNF, allowing optimism for the LA Rams defense to meet Brady frequently on MNF
The LA Rams have been to Florida once before this season when the Rams faced the Miami Dolphins. But the outcome of the game was not what anyone expected. Under a blazing sun that created as much as a 50-degree temperature difference between the two teams (Rams – 130 degrees, Dolphins – 80 degrees).
Of course, toss in the distance traveled of 2,336 miles one-way, the time zone difference of the game starting three hours earlier than west coast teams, which translated into a 10:00 am PT start time for the game.
