The NFL should move the Chiefs @ Buccaneers game this Sunday Night to New England.

[RememberTheKoy]

Is this not the perfect play? If you have to move it anywhere movie it to NE so Brady can play in front of that crowd one last time. It will also give the Bucs a huge home field advantage that they wouldn't get if they moved the game anywhere else. Plus it's SNF vs Mahomes. It's all set there on the table.

Nah. They should play the game in Miami where Brady wanted to go and retire. Imagine if he got "Pollarded" again and his career actually ended in Miami?

The hurricane will be in southern Georgia by Friday two days later they'll play in Tampa

But I agree they would simply play in Miami if the hurricane was over Tampa on game day.

Have them play the game up here in Cincy. And only charge, like, $5 a ticket. If they do that...yeah, I guess I might go to the game.

Travel to the game will be difficult.
A game in Miani would be almost without fans - just like the old days!

True, but traveling out of Florida would be tougher.

Both Jacksonville and Gainesville are closer to TB but they are both in the path of the storm

This why you move the game to NE.

Why NE it's over 1,300 miles away.
You make ZERO sense with this idea.

All indications are this would be moved to Minnesota, if it is actually moved at all.

I just read that, of course we've known the NFL doesn’t always make sense for a long time now.

Available stadium. Gives Patriots fans one last time to see the GOAT in person and for that reason alone Tampa would have more of a home field advantage in that game than any other replacement stadium would.

NFL is entertainment and this is a golden opportunity in SNF to have a really special moment of Brady going against Mahomes one last time and doing so in NE.

Why not Vancouver....

Gives another chance to see if this "Global branding" thing works

There's plenty of other stadiums available closer to Tampa. Going to NE or Minn makes no sense.

Besides the storm is set to hit TB on Friday, baring major damage to the stadium, they're plaing the game right there on Sunday

Interestingly enough, most weather forecasts are showing sunshine or at worst partly cloudy for the Tampa region on Sunday. Now what after effects from the hurricane, ie any wind or flooding damage which could affect traffic, still remains to be seen. But from an actual weather standpoint, it's going to be fine that day.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

NFL logistically has to make a decision within the next 48 hours.

 

[ducky]

MN is an odd choice. Goes from a Tampa home game to an away game that's for sure. A healthy amount of Chief fans in the area.....and only 7 hours away via I35 to get here from KC.

But that might actually be the theory. They wont sell the joint out.....but I bet they would get decent attendance.

I'd check it out for sure. Logistically it will be difficult to get the staff for a game on such short notice though.

What does closer to Tampa accomplish? Nothing. You'll get an empty stadium of indifferent fans.

So no Tampa fans will go to Miami?

If you're making a decision on Wednesday where the game will be, it'd be tough to put in Miami, no?
