Watching the KC game makes me wish we had an outdoor stadium. Having that weather advantage can win games by itself.

Watching that game made me glad we don’t.

Except Goff is trash outdoors, especially in cold weather.  Not to mention it’s Only and advantage if you play a warm weather team.  Even playing MN outdoors isn’t an advantage because they can practice outdoors to prepare.

Goff will not be here forever.

It's not exactly a disadvantage to the team if you know you play outdoors; you would build your team to play for that.

One interesting question after watching the Chiefs:  Do you think we should pursue L'Jarius Sneed in free agency?  

I’d take Sneed. Should have a chip on his shoulder after this season. Also wouldn’t mind going hard after Jaylon Johnson. I don’t think he and the Bears have a good relationship. He wanted a contract last offseason and then wanted to be traded.

Jaylon Johnson reportedly wants to reset the market for CBs.  I am not sure Brad Holmes would do that for free agent from outside the organization.  CBs that coming from a Spagnuolo defense haven't always been good with other teams.  Sneed should break that mold but be a little less expensive.

Tell that to Terry McClaurin from the Commanders.  

Terry McLaurin was a quiet college WR at OSU that was drafted in the middle rounds and developed to earn himself a big second contract.  I’d say he did quite well for himself. He had zero expectation of being even close to as good as he has been.

Martha and Sheila really turned this thing around. They got a lot of credit locally, but I wish the national crowd understood how much they've accomplished in such a short time considering how inept the men in the family were for 50+ years. It would be like the commanders going from Snyder to Kraft but nobody understands because it's the same family.

I feel like national people don't know enough about owners that aren't in the media all the time.  It seems like when talking about the Panthers HC opening and asking who wants to work for that owner that they could mention how SFH took over and quietly works in the background, hiring people to do the things she is not a master at and supports them where needed.  She stays out of the decisions but asks good questions on why or what the plan is without thinking she is the smartest in the room.  Such a perfect leader that has built the culture to allow the team to succeed.  So many good chances for her to get her flowers lately and nobody mentions it.
