Home-field Advantage still matters. But not like it did when there were fans in the stands. Maybe it was worth 3 points before and just one point now? Expand Not this year. This is the most up to date stat I could find. Entering Week 10, teams have a 65-67-1 record at home

gonzo1105 Posted November 29, 2020 Posted November 29, 2020 This game has to be in Oakland. Old Stadium there that can host a football game, in Alameda County, short trip for the 49ers etc. Just makes too much sense to practice and play there.

They probably still have the baseball field configuration in that dump of a stadium. If they want to keep it on the west coast LA or LV would be the top choices. Otherwise the backup stadium is Detroit, since there hasn't been NFL football home team there in years but the field is ready to go. Expand On 11/28/2020 at 9:59 PM, YoloinOhio said: With it being on Monday, it provides the option of using a different nfl stadium. NFL will probably push for LA for more exposure of that stadium Expand I just looked at the schedules, moving to Arizona, they never conflict with the Cardinals games. Closest they come is next week, Az home Sunday, then the Bills game would be Monday night. Good weather location, but not stifling like in Sept and out of the state of Cal as more restrictions may come elsewhere like LA

Frankly medically it makes most sense - one team is travelling - and that is reason why they claimed for day moves but NFL is never consistent. Expand Why not they didn't care when we only had 7 home games because of playing overseas & Canada.

The team is either going to have to leave the Bay area to practice or agree to create a bubble for the team themselves, or don't practice at all. Probably they will have to leave town. I'm wondering if other parts of Cal will follow suit. Kind of funny too read a story about 3 weeks ago, the owner of Golden State was going to spend like $30 mil to have 50% capacity at home games by rapid testing everyone prior to the games. He explained how it was a well thought out medically proven plan as they need to have some fans at games as can't afford the revenue losses Thought from a PR standpoint this will look good. Spend $400 on an NBA game ticket and we'll give you test and you won't need to wait in line for 5 hours here. Guess his idea isn't going anywhere now.

Cal Berkley is much closer. That would be my guess. Easiest move. Unsure what the college stadium situation is like in Sacramento. LA works at 5-6 hours away. So does the University of Oregon at 8 hours. My money is on Cal.

They won’t give us another home game, even though it really doesn’t matter without fans. These fanless stadiums are like playing 16 away games, but such is life. I honestly don’t care where we play, just as long as we play. The NFL will figure it out.

todd Posted November 29, 2020 Posted November 29, 2020 Looks like the easiest thing would be to have it be a Bills home game. Stadium isn't being used, and it is NFL-ready.
