Agree. I can see spending time inside to get the game plan in. Then I would have them run through things in the cold and snow. Edited January 7, 2022 by Bob in STL 1 Quote

Maybe it will wake up the clueless owners when it comes to the new stadium. Though it seems their mind is made up. Umm...OK. Clueless about? If people have no issues being outdoors skiing and sledding and doing other things, why is it a big deal to be outdoors at a game? Embrace it. You live here. Quote

But we already know this is a soft team, and it starts up top. Agreed...New England never practice indoors because Belichick wants them to be prepared for anything. Quote

Surprised their scouts on the road don't have to sleep in their cars and choose from the dollar menus for their meal allowance 😂 Edited January 7, 2022 by Big Turk 1 1 Quote

You are comparing skiing to sitting in rain and 20mph winds to watch a football game? What? They are clueless. Good luck selling season tickets to a new open air stadium. So, you have to pay us a $5k PSL fee, the cost of your season tickets are going to double, and if you aren't able to go to a December game you will be lucky to get $5 a ticket. How appealing. Quote

You said the team is soft for not practicing outdoors...yet you are worried about fans sitting outdoors in bad weather for the game. Sounds like we have some soft fans too. 1 Quote

Franco_92 Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 We beat NE in a ***** weather game in Buffalo just last season. Is that a valid data point? Or do we want to keep the pool as 100% the home game this year and therefore mcd is soft and bill is bad weather king 2 Quote

Process Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Just now, Johnnycage46 said: Why? Because it destroyed your argument? Because you are comparing fans paying to attend an event vs players being paid to do a job. Also we know the game Sunday is being played outdoors that can't be controlled, and they should be preparing for that. Has nothing to do with what they should do with a new stadium that is still being negotiated. But sure pal. Quote

It's like, been around forever and stuff. If you are planning to go to a game in Buffalo, in December, and especially if you are a season ticket holder, maybe invest in cold weather/wet gear. Hunters go out in terrible weather and if they are long time hunters they have amassed quite a bit of gear to handle the elements. It's not as though you showed up to the stadium and suddenly the team said, hey we're going to play the game somewhere else where the weather is terrible...sorry. It's such an overblown reaction. Oh, by the way...did you happen to watch this past Sunday's game? I think that might count as "practicing" outdoors in the elements. Not sure the team needs to keep doing it only 5 days later. Quote

It's only 32nd because their opponents are always way ahead and running out the clock. They also top or near the top in run attempts against. If the Bills plan to run it early and expect to dominate that way, they may be in for a surprise. That's a pretty stout D-line. 1 Quote

But it’s Friday, and they’re Indoors, so….. Quote

They got their info from outside the building. Quote
