Miami Dolphins Unlucky With Brady Punishment
By Eric Roddy
The Miami Dolphins didn’t even come close to benefiting from Tom Brady‘s recent “punishment.” Despite his participation in the recent “Deflategate” scandal, Tom Brady is barely receiving a punishment at all. He will sit out just the first four games of the 2015 season. Oh, not to mention Brady will appeal this four game suspension. Apparently he feels like it is too much. As if.

This weak penalty means that the Dolphins will still face Brady twice next season. The Dolphins unluckily do not play the Patriots for the first time until Week 8, a Thursday Night Football game in Foxborough.
Which teams do benefit from Brady’s minor time away from the field? The Steelers, Bills, Jaguars and Cowboys. That’s right, the Jaguars will get a shot at the Bradyless Pats, but the Dolphins will not.

What may be even worse is that the only AFC East team that gets to face the Pats without Brady is the Bills, led by new coach Rex Ryan. That’s right, Rexy will have a shot at the defending champs without Brady. As if everyone wanted to see Rex fist pump after beating the Pats.
Some teams have all the luck, and the Miami Dolphins are most certainly not one of them.
That being said, I think the Dolphins will be fine and can still beat the Pats with Tom Brady, as they have done in the past. Still, it would have bee nice to see the Pats without him for the first time since the 2008 season.
How do you feel about Brady’s suspension?
