That's the kind of shit that can break a bad or average team, but good teams will more often than not overcome it.

The first thing that always comes to mind for me in that regard is the nationally-televised Monday Night Football game against the Dolphins in 2009.

It was very hot and humid in Miami, and almost all of the players on the Colts' defense were dehydrated and as tired as dogs. The Dolphins advantage in time of possession ??? 45 minutes and 7 seconds, compared to the Colts' 14 minutes and 53 seconds.
