Stadium Construction Discussion (No PSL/Seat selection posts)
djp14150 replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
I have a friend who is part of the construction crew. There are a few things behind but not much. Those behind were more supply chain delays. -
I get the decision to go for it. the idea is if you don’t get the 4 th down you feel your D can stop KC and you get the ball back still needing a TD. if Buffalo did that and kick a FG and they didn’t get close again people on here would be ripping McD nads off for poor play ca ling

Being 0-3 at home is a must win game psychologically. Hoe many 0-4 teams have made the playoffs? If they have must win panic they might try to pull wacky plays that succeed thst are probability unlikely to succeed. with term surviving and being 1-2 they won’t have that must win panic.

Except you are not factoring in stadiums and local weather. Dallas is close to a dome and doesn’t get the wind affects. bills stadium has probably the worst winds.

Mine are morbid…….. 1. Oklahoma City bomber Timothy mcVeigh went to starpoint high school. I knew his sister and classmates of his 2. That northern NY prison escape thst became a Netflix miniseries. You had the CO assist thrm and having a relationship with one of the two es apes. I’m connected to the other one shot and killed. He and his brother were foster kids in May hometown. My brother and his brother were in 7 th grade together and got into a fight. They lived down the street from my brothers now wife. They played with him in the neighborhood games. 3. the nashville school shooting. My bother snd his wife live in nashville and each connected to a few victims of the shooting. My SIL knee one of the adults killed. My brothers colleague lost a niece/ nephew/ grandchild some weird random things… 1. Freshman yr at college. One of the hallmates went to school with a former neighbor of mine. Thry moved when he was a senior to the southern suburbs. 2. random plane flight. There was someone I knew sitting near me from a prior job I had. He didn’t work innthe immediate group as me but was someone I regularly saw. 3. if I wasn’t able to travel back to Buffalo in conjunction with work travel therr is a 10% probability I woukd have bern on the flight that continental flight that crashed. 4. Years ago I was at Grand Canyon walk the trail on the rim. I come across a family from buffalo. They weren’t wearing bills gear. Just talked and they said they were from buffalo. Other places in my adult life this has happened where I met transplants randomly ( not at a bills bar). Along the I-95 corridor there are many buffalo area transplants ——-below is a longer story—- I was in high school ski club. The ski club teacher was young. My older brother didn’t know her. This teach was not my teacher. She taught things like accounting and business math classes. She and my dad , who came to pick me up after skiing, got to talking. They were from the same family because they shared same family stories. They knew the same grandparents level of the family. I don’t recall ever seeing that part of the family. my dads father was a single child and died before I was born.we were separated from the family last name relatives. The story was brothers and their SOs came here from Sicily around 1907 or so. My grandfather was the first child born in the U.S. in 1910. Before My senior year this teacher left my school on maternity leave. I graduated in 1987. The end of the prior school year she was obviously pregnant. I don’t recall the exact year. It was roughly mid 1990s. I was at a friends house around Xmas/ new years time. This friend wife invited her brother and his gf. My brother was with me there. I got talking to the girlfriend and it turns a little stalkerish but I was right— she had mentioned her last name was the same as ours. She looked close enough to be the younger sister of that teacher. I say to her is your sisters name is XXX and you should have a niece/ nephew who is about y years old. She confirmed it. My brother had this dumbfounded look on his face. I explain to him thr background story of her sister being a teacher and our dad talking to her.

Over the next 25 years…. not seeing Chiefs moving to Dallas. KC is due to start building a new stadium ( likely in Kansas near the race track) if New Orleans get destroyed from the next Katrina then San Antonio/ Austin gets the team Jacksonville is looking to get a new stadium. Washington could build a new stadium in northern Virginia. They are scoping out a new stadium site. reason Vegas got a team was because Bay Area would not build a stadium. Same with San Diego. tampa is due for a hurricane that destroys the city. That could se the team move to Orlando therr are a few teams 15 yrs from now are due a new stadium and you get an outside owner with no ties to the city you can see St. Louis, San Antonio/Austin, London, Mexico City , and Toronto reaching out.

Baltimore lost close games coming down to the last minutes. I don’t want to play an 0-3 Baltimore team on the road they have a difficult schedule…. non common — bills, at Texans, at Bucs play nfc east at DAL/ Giants hone PHL/WAS home and afc west at KC/LA home LV/DEN their division ( none are automatic) the only “easy” games I had on their schedule were giants, commanders, and broncos. If you think the rest are toss ups….that's then a 10-7 record.

The Ripoff Report: Headaches and Numbers
djp14150 replied to WhitewalkerInPhilly's topic in The Stadium Wall
Medical fact. Coming off his type of injury he’s will not be 100% before a year it usually takes 18 months to be 100% That's a fall to the head Since he wasn’t running and with the helmet on should not have caused a concussion. If it dies thrn regular folks get confused every time they fell in hit their head on the ground. -
I’ve been a regular watcher of red zone with Hansen. my dad signed up for directTV as his tv provider ( but not a football fan) but got it in his package. The times I was there in the fall I watched the games including Direct version of red zone. I didn’t really notice a difference with Siciliano vs Hansen. ober my years in watching they usually have cued up big plays in order in full screen earlier in the game between 2-4 games about yo score. they have always gone split screen or 3-4 at once when you get to late in the 4th of course Hansen and his team have made mistakes or seemed to pass over big plays or delayed showing them 10 games in one slot makes it hard to cover them all. later in the year they tend to focus more on the big games than the toilet bowl games of below 500 teams othervthsn touchdowns or they do have a tight game with a close ending. other factor is in coverage and broadcasts. When you have a clearly dominant 2 pm game being broadcast to much of the country they try to focus on other games. An example would be you have 4 games onnFOX. 3 of thrm will just go to their traditional markets and then one game goes everywhere else. I’ve also seen them screw up. In the late games when it’s after 7 pm and you have only one game on the DH network thry can’t broadcast domestically because most TVs are on the national broadcast on CBS/FOX. There have bern times the “ token” 4 pm ( not 425 game) is the last one standing and they have stopped showing that. That 405 game is generally on in primary markets and a few other markets. they also can’t broadcast after 8 pm if you might have a lightning delayed game thst hasn’t finished yet and it’s not exclusively on the 425 station.

The Ripoff Report: Headaches and Numbers
djp14150 replied to WhitewalkerInPhilly's topic in The Stadium Wall
A few things…. Tre is NOT 100%. He may be more like 80%. He should be 100% next year. on Tua— the hit by Hamlin should not have caused a concussion but it atus. He had to be coming into the game st something less than 100% . you can find decent talent in late rounds of the draft with players coming out of non high profile football programs Elam is a weird situation. He’s more of a man coverage player in a more zone defense. -
covid 2020 season was an outlier due to no crowd noise in stadiums affected play and things like defense motivation with the noise and the ease to audible plays right before snapping the ball. 2 deep shell generally eliminates the deep ball but no teams plays it 100% of the time. I don’t read as much into passing yards being down early in the season could be attributed to more inexperienced WBs of 3 yrs or less and teams being rusty if they changed receivers or offenses. I don’t know how many drops were there or just misses there were on 20+yd passing plays also what happens is the QB is changing to more mobile players who can run more and do designed runs which adds to the ground game

Strange thing I noticed about Mike McDaniel

Chance of rain for that night. Your body adjusts to the climate you are in. You get something you aren’t used to your body reacts. my brother has lived in nashville for 30 yrs. When he is in buffalo over summer and the days is a high of upper 70s and low innthr upper 50s hr may have a jacket or sweathshirrt on while the rest of us are without a jacket on. I’ve know a few who live in Florida and will put on jackets if it’s slightly colder than normal -

problems with the chart… 1. too small of sample 2. defense played zone vs man 3. It’s yards per snap…not thrown their way. If you are playing against a team test got a lot of snaps and not much thrown to you, you get penalized. 4. long passes will hurt stat more without passing blame on to the right player in the defense like you are playing zone cobvercreveivervthrnnrelrasr expecting deep safety support but instead receiver is I hit innthe window betwee CB and safety. -

Tre is not 100% from injury. -
They might play more 2 TE keep-ring a TE to help LT with late releases for dump offs like RBs do KC has bern for yearsA short passing team relying on YAC where much of their passes are under 10 yards.

mathematics…. after week 1 you have 16 1-0 teams if Winners played each other after week 2 you would have 8 2-0 teams after week 3 4 left week 4 2 left in the nfl with most teams the margins between playoffs and not is marginal. Early inn-the seasons team have something to fight for. By game 7 or so separation can occur with some luck in getting 5-2or better or 2-5 and worse. the current 2-0 teams sre Bills ( cards, fins) Steelers ( falcons, broncos) texans ( colts, bears) chargers ( panthers, raiders) chiefs ( bengals, ravens) Vikings ( giants, 49ers) Alvin and the chip-monks ( panthers, cowboys) Bucs ( commanders, lions) Seahawks ( broncos, patriots) eagles* (1-0 play tonight) ( packers, vs falcons)
