  1. The tickets can be set up by the ticket holder to be managed by the app once the event gets near. It does not know what happens, and that's the good thing. Someone lists the ticket too expensive to begin with trying to make money. They hold on to too much pride instead of dropping the price below what they paid because of oversaturation of the market. At that point they log in and say I just need to make some money back on this so I don't lose my ass. They drop it cheap. Sometimes it's too late and they have to drop it way cheap. Either way if they put it on auto manage the algorithm will compete against itself because it doesn't realize the closer you are in the first three or four rows the worse it is. Therefore the good seats 10 to 25 rows up are often at a great deal, in front row seats can be had for as little as $35 even for big game. Now those ridiculous prices are once the event begins. So if you just want to see the beginning of the game you buy the cheapest tickets available and watch the beginning of the game and then look every 2 to 3 minutes for prime seat that got reduced.
  2. Quick, people! Tell me what to think so I can be outraged/excited/disappointed/aroused!
  3. Cam lewis was on Sirius. Talking well. Saying all the defense wants to do iss give the ball back to the offense. Just like Benford said.
  4. Buy a ticket at a low price now, or just before kickoff to see the beginning of the game. You will still pay for that ticket and it will all be there, it's your ticket still. But watch for tickets during the game on Ticketmaster or StubHub because they will fall in price as the price drops. On Ticketmaster any verified tickets are like on StubHub. You can set them to manage the price for you. The original game tickets will fall in price as well. And since the market is oversaturated you will be able to get cheap tickets as an upgrade. But you don't get your original money back I've done it before where I bought $30 nose bleeds at the start of the game and watch the beginning and then bought $14 upgrades to be on the 30 it rows up This works because some people are stubborn or stupid and do not list their tickets at the appropriate price. So, some schmuck thinks he's selling his face value tickets for $450 for $800 to make a big profit. He will refuse or forget to drop the price until it's too late and he's not lowered it. He then sets it to be auto managed and the price plummets. If there was another person or two I'd rent a car and drive. If simply another person and managed right if fly to STL from Greensboro (cheaper than CLT or RDU despite the flight going gso-clt-stl). But it's a car rental driveable game - 16 hour one way.
  5. Not worried about stopping the Chiefs as much as I am about us getting going. They're an efficient offense that moves the ball down the field and wins. That's all it takes. On defense we must bracket Kelce. He doesn't block. Have cover 3 over the middle in zone with an underneath backer or Johnson depending on the offensive set. If we go man coverage or quarters than it will be imperative to watch both seams for Kelce, Gray, or a running back breaking free. Quarters coverage exposes seams and can be effective with only 3 rushers + 1 spy. Regardless, spying Allen with a linebacker and not showing who it is will help. He's smart, though, so mixing in a corner blitz to flush him to our edge protectors is critical. With 3 rushers, a spy LB we leave 2 safeties over top, 2 corners not to get beat, a linebacker to cover the backfield, flat, soft under zone check down, and a nickel who can play off the QB. I hope we consider going dime on obvious passing plays when the ball is outside of field goal range since Mahomes will take all day to find a target. Kelce will have under 60 yards catching. Gray will get 30-40. Brown, Worthy & WR's will total 80 yards, the RB's will touch on 60-70 yards. There will be 3+ sacks.
  6. where would you be coming from?
  7. many of these tickets were extra or no interest in going, etc. many of these folks will not lower the price or foolishly hold on to the idea to recoup the $700 they invested in the ticket and won't sell for less only to drop the price to below market and reasonable ticket. The Bills/Broncos game had tickets for $15 between the 40's. The Ravens had them $70 between the 40's. Buffalo metro combine with the market it serves for the Bills is equal to KC. It is also a lot closer of a commute for most of the East Coast. KC is not accessible.
  8. RDU, GSO (greensboro), or CLT
  9. They will go down Considering going. Flying to STL to drive 4 hours to game is much more economical. Either Saturday night or early Sunday. Return Monday.
  10. Is that going to be kelvin benjamin? That guy eats.
  11. The NFL mandates that tickets go up for sale to playoff games in December. These tickets have been available for quite some time. It is exceptionally troublesome that the Chiefs have had to lock on the number one seed for over a month at the end of the season and their fans did not want to buy these tickets. That is absolutely pathetic. But then again this fan base is about as fair weather as they come short of the 20% die hard folks out there
  12. He's going to chase money.
  13. If you're anywhere near the game wait until the last minute to go and buy tickets. If you're within three or four hours you'll be able to wake up that morning and say screw it I can spend $200 on a good ticket. The cost of these tickets is going to drop dramatically. They're over 2500 resale tickets still available right now, and I estimate 1500 face value tickets. When resale value tickets are less than the face value tickets there's going to be a major falling off. You will be able to get into this game for less than $150, you'll be able to move up lower bowl for less than $150. What I'm saying is if you want to go: Buy tickets as cheap as possible Wait until the first quarter and buy an upgraded ticket
  14. For Milano Cortisone/Prednisone in hamstring is 4-5 days to get ramped up. PRP takes 2-3 weeks Hyaluronic acid for rap in his hip takes 3 to 4 weeks. More than likely he'll get it a shot. Be fine.
  15. Flying in to St Louis is $390. Rental $100. Hotel $200. 4 hour drive. Tickets to the game @ about $250 by the time i buy. it's so tempting but that's a big cost solo.
  16. i can't find video of Mack Hollins destroying him. i'd like to.
  17. I've been predicting this for a while but a year or so early. I had expected this by 2022 as far back as '15-16. All things are cyclical but watching Cam Newton blow up defenders made me realize that teams could do well with a Derrick Henry or other big pounding backs - especially by a committee of their skillset. I love what we have with diversified players, but not sure what we have tied up in them. But 3 cheaper RB's vs a high end Henry has a benefit. Next up I want a fast OL - interior OL at that. I'd love to get Georgia's 6'5 310 center at 4.6 40 yards to make into a fullback. Now, I don't want to draft an OL or DL in the first 4 rounds for this... Well, maybe 4th round if he's perfect... But I'd sour the nation for fast, big, possibly compact (5'10-6) fast lineman who have hands.
  18. Just looked across the board. Looks like tight end production was down this year.
  19. As pointed out by Sierra the candy was there. He made some great passes. To outshine Allen
  20. If it was an individual sport Lamar still wouldn't win. He didn't outplay Josh. He threw an INT, had a fumble, went stupid a few times and choked... Even if he did a lot good he set his team back and lessened the chance to win by his mistakes. That's not outplaying the opponent. Just like Mahomes is outplayed by Josh every playoff game - Mahomes gets the job done.
  21. I'm ok with a bomb. Even two. I am ok with a long score, or breakaway. Especially early. Let their defense stay on the field.
  22. jst saw this and it is spot on. he was looking all over, head on a swivel and over thinking/asked to do too much. babich should have noticed this, so should mcdermott. i expect this week to be different. i expect some 4-3 packages - and even some dime with cam lewis coming in over milano (if banged up) and/or bernard. cam lewis showed he can stick with kelce last year.
  23. It's like he was asked to do too much. His plate was over capacity and it showed. I keyed in on him several times but gave up because I couldn't figure out his assignment Von Miller was a joy to watch, however. Holy Crow that guy was a wreckingnball.
