 If a significant hurricane hits Tampa, it could be decimated.

So the Dolphins game will be cancelled on Sunday?

two choices

a) they move it to a neutral stadium,but it has to be an NFL stadium which has replay technology etc. so atlanta, charlotte would make sense.not too far and both of those teams are away week 1. two downsides with this. miami are already minus one home game as they play in london this season so season ticket holders would only get 6 games and secondly 106 players may not want to be away from their families during a cat 5.

b) play it in week 11 when both teams are scheduled to have a bye but the downside of this is that playing 16 weeks without a break is tough, player safety and injury issues

i expect, with no really ideal option, they will move it to week 11 nov 19th

From everything I've seen, they do plenty of bleeding themselves.

I'd sooner play a full rugby season, than a 16 game NFL season, ainec.

Officials haven’t heard from the tiny island of Barbuda since #Irma struck. It's been 6 hours. https://t.co/QaTJySwhtO

My parents are currently on a cruise on oasis of the seas. They left Florida on Sunday
I believe they are currently around Jamaica

My sister heard from them a few hours ago

 Shocked

You'd think they would just get the fk out the way, it's not like they didn't have a few days notice to sail north/south out of the way of the likely line it will probably go.
