Chargers @ Broncos Pregame Discussion Thread (Wk 18)

[Bolt4Knob]

We've been announced for 1:25 PT. Schefter just tweeted that Bengals/Ravens will depend on the game tonight. If the Bills win tonight, Bengals/Ravens will also be at 1:25pm. If the Bengals win tonight and clinch the division Bengals/Ravens will be at 10am.

i guess it makes sense but i was really hoping the ravens would be early
i guess for competitive reasons it makes sense

LOL, the Browns are bad in any kind of weather.

Also common sense one would think would tell you teams that play in COLD outdoor air stadiums are more acclimated versus visiting teams from warm weather climates. That's the rub opposing teams used as invaders to the Bolt temple.

Remember how this ALL started was when opposing fans came into our forums to say our team is dogshit in COLD weather. You ONLY have historical data to prove them wrong.

Problem is I didn't say our team is dog shit in COLD weather. I said we don't have any data to prove it either way. You seem to think otherwise. But history does not count. It's what this particular team can do in cold weather. The answer is we don't know. There just isn't enough (if any) data points. Then one would have to define what they mean by cold weather. Playing in sub 40 F is not necessarily cold weather. We're talking about sub freezing 32 or lower. Can you name a game in the last 4 yearsthat we've played in sub 32 F weather?

I still think the Chargers should not go home after Denver but head to a place where they can practice in the time zone and if need be, weather for a week. Just to get used to running around in the uniforms, cleats, etc. They won't - but they should.

The 49ers practiced fora week in Colorado before playing the Cardinals in Mexico City

You are missing the point.

Of course we have NO DATA POINTS for this team for this year for COLD weather games to make a prediction. That is super obvious - HOWEVER we do have historical data how the team plays when opposing fans come into your forum and state your team has a history of shitting the sheets when it gets cold. GET IT ?

We could have sat back as fans and said what was johnny obvious. This team has NEVER played in COLD weather of 32 degrees or less this year so fuck off but that is too damn easy to do.

Where is the challenge in that ?

They said our team HISTORY (you know in YEARS) shows we are dogshit in the cold - oh really ?

Game on.

Yes and it's true.. 4/5 best cold weather teams play in outdoor stadiums. The exception is the 49ers. The only fair weather team to make the top five.
And lets be honest the 49ers are a very good team which is what counts first and foremost. The Browns on the other not so good to very bad.

Based on what? The dolphins stayed in Cali for a week after they lost to the 49ers and then we beat them the next game.

I think it’s better to sleep in your own bed, eat your own food and practice at your own facility

The data if it exist would be very hard to get. So I don't what what your raving about. You saying we did some survey some time ago doesn't get you anywhere.
And by the way you should clean up your language. Kids and families come here. I really don't care what opposing fans say,

Same. It could still happen, but I also want the Bills to win tonight and ultimately get the #1 seed. Tired of it always being the Chiefs.

I do.

It gives me the opportunity to craft new fan insults on the fly and make them fear the Bolt or steal really good shit from the forums attracting more live meat.

Its a fan hobby of sorts - almost a sickness.

Science has no answer. :rofl::wtf:

I don't change posting styles for anyone except at a MODS request. I am funny that way with over moderation. Must be all those years having people tell me how to post and what to post ?

Pass.

Although I appreciate the suggestion.
