Welcome to Gillette

Posted by Mike Reiss, Globe Staff October 20, 2008 04:30 PM

FOXBOROUGH -- Welcome to Gillette Stadium, where the Patriots host the Broncos in Monday Night Football action (8:30 p.m.).

Conditions-wise, the teams couldn't ask for much more considering it's mid-to-late October. Skies are clear, there is no precipitation expected, and the temperature at kickoff is expected to be in the mid-40s. Winds don't look they will be much of a factor.

The Patriots are calling this "Andre Tippett Night" as the team's most recent Pro Football Hall of Famer will be recognized. Tippett is on the cover of the GameDay magazine.

Al Riveron is scheduled to referee tonight's game, while Ayla Brown will sing the national anthem.

The plan will be to pass along updates throughout the night.
