But there's a decent amount of Chiefs fans in the area. Nah those fans traveled. Plus everyone does that to the Chargers. The Niners could play there and it’ll be all Niners. They’ll be like 10% chief fans at most at the Colosseum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’ll be so bad considering that both Rams and Chiefs have their Bye weeks after that. A delay wouldn’t be the worst thing, but not ideal.

Broncofan Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Well, I'd say there is likely no chance it's staying in Mexico now. If teams are making backup plans, then you know the score, but this is the final nail in the coffin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rivers Posted November 13, 2018 Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 forget playing in stadiums other than the teams. This is the only way they can make sure the field is what they expect. How would anyone here feel if their career ended in this game due to the really bad field? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just that, but remember that Reggie Bush, at the end of his career, got hurt at STL dome with the Rams knowing there was a problem the week before. Even though he was likely almost done in his career, the jury awarded 12.5M - of which 10M was punitive damages IIRC, because the Rams didn't act with foreknowledge. Imagine what the liability would be for the league and the team if a star player got hurt here. I fully applaud the players for taking a stand if they are considering boycotting a Mexico City game, but the teams and league should be taking this position, regardless. It's not only the right thing to do, from a liability perspective, while I'm a layman and I defer to the legal experts, seems like a no-brainer here.

Jimmy Austin Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 This game is going to disappoint. One team will mop up the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMossIsBoss Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 I don't understand how the field isn't playable? Who is in charge of this and how could they screw up such an opportunity? What a disaster. Good news for Rams since it was their "home" game so I assume they'll get to play it in LA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingseanjohn Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 I'd prefer the game be played in LA than have a higher risk of injuries to both teams. Hopefully there's some star power saying they'll sit out that could influence the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
