Danny Amendola: One Bill Belichick mandate helped Patriots beat Seahawks in Super Bowl XLIX

The sight of Chiefs and Eagles players slipping on the field at State Farm Stadium during Super Bowl LVII brought back plenty of memories for Danny Amendola.

The former Patriots wide receiver was all too familiar with the slick playing surface found at the Arizona Cardinals’ home arena.

Even with the NFL shelling out $800,000 to revamp the field ahead of the latest Super Bowl, Amendola noted on Chris Long’s “Green Light” podcast that the venue has always had a knack for getting slick.

“When you play a night game in AZ, for some reason the grass always gets a little dewy at night, and it’s so slick,” Amendola said.
