  1. lol. fact. Highmark holds 71.8K. and the Bills have averaged over 68k only one season since 2017....but they would fill every seat of every game with only Bills fans if there were 80k seats! What's your point? Rams and Chargers have a weak fan base? So what? Everyone said LA was an NFL fan wasteland but that's obviously not true. Look at Vegas--how many "Raiders fans" lived there before they came to town? Yet the stadium draws the biggest gate of all. It's a huge NFL venue and market because of visitors, LA as well--plus lots of transplants. see above.
  2. Exactly. No "hey what's your nickname bro?? Wait--only one nickname per bro!!" for our man JA--he's the rare one. Just wants everyone to have a good time.
  3. I guess we can make any assumption we want as to who's fans are in the stands from here. But it's not a phenomenon unique to SoFi, obviously. "The Chargers and Rams are not only contending with lost time in their bid to attract fans. With the proliferation of apps like SeatGeek and StubHub, through which customers can easily buy and resell tickets, the away fan takeover has become ubiquitous – and not just in Los Angeles. Fans of the Minnesota Vikings flooded Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday for the team’s away game against the Kansas City Chiefs, generating as much noise as the home supporters and performing their signature “skol” chant with impunity. New England Patriots fans turned out in droves for the team’s road game last month against Washington; they did the same two weeks later when the Patriots played at the New York Jets. When iconic teams like the Patriots, Steelers, Packers or Dallas Cowboys come to town, whether in Los Angeles or elsewhere, the home fans are always at risk of being outnumbered. Resale ticket prices are an average of 53% higher than a typical game when the Packers are visiting, according to figures provided by SeatGeek. They are 55% higher for Cowboys road games. That can be enticing for a season-ticket holder, looking to resell a ticket."
  4. SoFi averaged 71,598 (100.1% capacity) for the Rams and 70,240 (98.2%) for the Chargers. Bills had 67,816 (94.7%) at home. http://www.espn.com/nfl/attendance
  5. Not sure that's rare in most locker rooms. Josh is that way too, for one.
  6. Because it was already reported in 2 other threads hours before this one.
  7. It is? How many of those did he have out of 164 targets? Of his 10 TDs, 5 were under 10 yards, 1 was over 15 yards, none over 20. The rookie who replaced him in Mind had a lot more YPC and significantly more yards before and after the catch per catch. He had TDs of 23, 45 and 50 yards in his 10.--with Cousins tossing the ball. Diggs YAC per suggests he's tackled or goes OOB (or EZ) within 2 long strides of a catch. Josh had only 12 fewer 1st down rushing than Diggs had receiving.
  8. Beasley (3.7) had higher YAC than Diggs (3.2)
  9. Was McCarron sleeping on Kyle Orton's couch when the call came?
  10. Not really. What if both Murray and Jackson have rough seasons? Ravens won't need to pay a premium for that.
  11. First Qb to 70 passing, 20 rushing TDs in 1st 3 years. 17 games of 70% completion or more. Second player ever with over 10000 yards passing and 1500 rushing in 3 years. He is what he is. Probably paid tooo much, but little choice. The real problem with the Cards is that their HC is a bum. His teams collapse in the second half of the season--it's his trademark. He's a lightweight.
  12. There is no scarier player to defend than Levi Wallace
  13. 100% agree. Khalil always overrated--especially by the teams that acquire him.
  14. Can you still play in the league after you've been inducted into the HOF?
  15. Is it what Josh calls himself?? lol
  16. The gambling billions aren't affected by a football player playing a parlay. Come on. Legal betting has been around for ages and no one cares or even knows if players have been laying bets for decades. Supported/partially owned/encouraged/NFL sanctioned betting is just a ne way of doing the same thing. Just like drug testing has done little to curb NFL PED use (like gambling, only the dumbest players get caught) nor has it affected the "billions of dollars" rolling in before or with legal gambling, none of this really matters. The money will always be coming in. People (on this site especially) have assumed the game is rigged anyway----yet they simply cannot get enough of the NFL. This will never change.
  17. Neon Deion 'tude.
  18. Times are changing!
  19. It's not weak. This whole code of conduct/suspension apparatus exists only to deal with potential stains on the NFL brand---not to punish players or change their behavior. Which is a bigger stain on the league? A serial predator being in the league or having a guy who was currently not active on a roster doing a legal activity that is openly encouraged by the NFL (and partially owned by its owners, who promote it for profit)?
  20. It WAS sold---- to the person who is now re-selling it.
