I was there in the 80's IIRC it is about 8000 feet and Denver is just over 5000 ft so thats 3 K. just looked it up 7,350 ft Walking around for hours and climbing stairs carrying equipment was an effort 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted November 13, 2018 Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 (edited) Chiefs-Rams Game Moved from Mexico City to L.A. The highly anticipated Monday night showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams will no longer be played at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. The league announced Tuesday that the game featuring two 9-1 teams atop their respective divisions will now be played at the L.A. Coliseum on Monday, Nov. 19, because the playing surface at Estadio Azteca did not meet NFL standards. "The decision is based on the determination -- in consultation with the NFLPA and following a meeting and field inspection this afternoon by NFL and club field experts as well as local and independent outside experts -- that the playing field at Estadio Azteca does not meet NFL standards for playability and consistency and will not meet those standards by next Monday," the league wrote in a statement. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported earlier Tuesday that the league was monitoring the situation in Mexico City and was working with Estadio Azteca to ensure the field is up to league standards for next Monday's game.

LeGOATski Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Not surprised. They showed the Estadia Azteca last night during a game break to preview the match-up and I thought to myself "wow, what a shithole." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoTier Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Even if they're now playing in LA, I think that KC wins. I think that they're better on offense than the Rams (especially with Kupp out), and the Rams defense seems to be surprisingly vulnerable in the last three games, giving up an average of 34.3 points in each. They also seem vulnerable to teams with good running games (like the Saints that put up 45 on them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 How the NFL's chillest QB launched an offensive revolution In the midst of a wild three-year career arc that has taken him from rookie bust to MVP candidate, the Rams quarterback has learned to enjoy the ride. How far can his surge lift L.A.? BY TIM KEOWN A version of this story appears in ESPN The Magazine's November issue. It's starting to feel like a revolution, and every revolution needs a frontman. Rams quarterback Jared Goff, under the progressive vision of head coach Sean McVay, is the leader of one of the NFL's most dynamic offenses. Just two years after 2016's top pick suffered through the turgid, sclerotic final days of the crumbling Jeff Fisher empire -- losing all seven of his rookie starts -- Goff is an ascendant star, an MVP candidate, a player who symbolizes the promise of the new over the stubbornness of the old. "It's funny that the spread quarterback was seen as such a scary thing going into every draft," Goff says. "I played in the spread, Patrick Mahomes played in the spread, Deshaun Watson, Mitchell Trubisky -- the NFL is so stuck in its ways sometimes. If you don't innovate and adapt, you're going to be left behind. It's about coaches; how do you get the best out of your players? It's not by forcing someone to run what you want to run. It's how you can make A the best A can be." This was a moment -- adapt or die -- and it called for something that's not exactly rampant in the NFL: men with the vision and confidence to change the paradigm. As it turns out, they didn't come to kill the game; they came to save it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah they screwed up huge, I wouldn't schedule a game there for a long time. I'm sure the NFL is pissed! For some reason Madden has me always move the Buffalo Bills to Mexico City when I run out of money paying giant signing bonuses to avoid using cap. So.. don't let me ever own the Bills. I don't sell enough hot dogs. Edited November 14, 2018 by PetermanThrew5Picks 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobblehead Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Looks like that stadium was overbooked lately.

That was a Shakira concert. I heard that was 9 days ago, but NFL/Sirius today said it was a month ago. Hard to imagine what the NFL has to do with moving the game. Mexico City generally packs the house, so now those tickets get refunded. On the other hand, it won't be difficult to sell out KC v Rams in LA.
