yes. its football......weather is included in the game (or should be) imo....minnesota is retarded.....they could have a brutal home field advantage.....like chicago or greenbay....but instead they are hindering themselves cause they gotta play in GB and CHI in the winter....harsh winter....and they arent used to it (they are used 72 degrees)

dumb. just dumb.

I would just about assure you they have an outdoor practice field so I don't see them practicing indoors unless they play at home that week. I'm just assuming, they might not.

Zod, I actually agree with you 100%. They should do away with domes in pros and in college. Watching the goal posts almost blow over annually at a couple of games in Buffalo is awesome. Same at Lambeau. Should be part of the game...

I will openly admit, the only way we have a shot at the SB is to go thru a dome. This team is not built for cold (i.e. going to NY or Philly in January). That being said; there is nothing like outdoor football.

There's nothing like those post season games in the snow in Pittsburgh or Foxboro. That last SB in Miami was awesome with the downpour when Indy/Chicago played.

I can understand a team like N.O. using a dome, since they have to deal with hurricanes. If Carolina's team was in Wilmington, I could see it being in a dome.

Now teams like Atlanta that play in a dome...they are just plain SOFT! Atlanta has beautiful weather, but they play their games indoors.

Can't figure that one out.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Right, so basically what I said in my first post about this last night. Tepper needs to use that big wallet of his in one of the few ways it can be used in the NFL given the cap.   Give Scourton a bigger signing bonus but not a fully guaranteed deal. Everyone wins in that scenario as if Scourton is smart and hires good money people, he'll take that bigger signing bonus and use it to make more money in the end over the next 4 years than if he just had his fully guaranteed deal and a smaller signing bonus.

      It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ
