Off the top of my head. From 95 to now.

Rams, Titans, Ravens, Pats, Bucs, Steelers, Colts, Jets/Giants, Vikings(on the table).

(in Andy Rooney voice) Why is that?

Well, the Rams, Titans and Ravens already had new stadiums because they had recently moved to new cities. The Steelers have consistantly reached championship games, that a new stadium coincided with one of them seems like random chance. Besides, if there's a massive conspiracy, how do you explain the Cowboys not reaching a championship game in 14 years, with their new stadium? What about the Jags, they need a stadium?

The key # is 95. SINCE 95.

The transplant teams highlights my point. They HAD to move, or so they said, to "be competitive" to be able to win a SB. Rams were a bolt of lightening with Warner and proved no fluke going again.

As for the Cowboys, they won the 71 SB..the SAME year Texas Stadium opened. But, let's stick to the current events.

Bucs win a SB within 4 yrs of Raymond James stadium.

Eagles go a year after Lincolin Financial opens.

Cards, 3 years after new place.

Seahawks 3 years after Qwest.

Bears 3 years after "new" Soldier. Similar for Packers, 4 yrs after redoing Lambeau.

Ravens 2 yrs after M&T. Played in old Memorial after moving there.

Steelers twice after Heinz. 4 yrs after for the first time.

Pats 4 times since Gillette.

Rams 4 yrs after.

Jags 2 yrs after. Same for Panthers.

The teams who have NOT gone to either Champ game or SB AFTER getting a new stadium.

Broncos-new stadium 2001

Texans-exp team

Browns-exp

Bengals-2000

Lions-2002

Skins-97

80% of nfl stadiums have been built in the past 15 years which coincides with the explosion in revenue the nfl experienced in the mid 90s and in a league full of parity many teams have played in a super bowl during that time frame.

what a mystery!?!?!?!?!

I think you might be missing the point. The teams play the poorhouse card until they get a stadium and typically at or near when the deal happens, a very large % end up either in the Champ game or the SB.

Soldier and Lambeau were updated to generate more revenue were they not?

They didn't do it to get on the cover of SI.

The Vikings and Saints ironically are the only teams to NOT have gotten a new stadium in the last 15 yrs to play in a NFC Champ game.

Chargers and Raiders are the other two.

I just think it's interesting.

what about the lions?

Broncos-new stadium 2001(someone mentioned them playing in 05 Champ Game)

Texans-exp team

Browns-exp

Bengals-2000

Lions-2002

Skins-97

The other 5, are the exception for building a new stad and NOT either making the Champ game or SB at least within a 4 yr window.

Dallas NO new stadium since 71(of course they have one now) and made the champ game AND SB in 95-96.

Again, yes in the last few years more new stadiums. I just think it's intresting how soon teams typically have great success so close to a new venue.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
