NFL: Will the Rams Super Bowl win encourage more teams to go all in on trades?

He got his dad to do it.

Daddy did the dirty work for him

baker being a worthless loser is a FACT though.

He was going to be the number 3 behind Kupp and Woods before he tore his knee in practice.

George Kittle along with a grass company is going to sue for grass to be on all fields. I’m sure some more guys will want to sign on now.

The hard ones are the dome ones in NO, Det, Min and LA.
Houston used to have grass. Atl, Dal, Ind have retractable roofs.

Open air stadiums should go with grass

You would think the sport would do whatever they could do to avoid them after watching what it did to guys in baseball like Griffey. All the players that played through turf toe and would get mocked despite it being almost a career ending injury these days.

Have to also be realistic in terms of what they can do with the turf now.

Cardinals and Raiders, the stadium is setup to roll the grass in. So, the structure of the stadium has been built to support the building while having a section wide enough that encompasses the width of an NFL field to roll the grass outside to get sunlight.

You can't just replicate or retro fit existing stadiums to do that, at least not easily. Would likely require a significant cost to do so. Plus, is there space outside the stadium to accommodate the size of the field if we are talking places with a non retractable roof?

Can't cut the field into sections. Has to be the entire field.

The open air stadiums and the retractable roof stadiums, should be able to put down grass, so that would leave 5 NFL teams without grass.
Those that are multiple purpose would have to be cognizant of scheduling to ensure that the grass is in good shape for MLS/NFL games.

OBJ is a winner. Baker is a completely worthless loser.

OBJ is a winner. Baker is a completely worthless loser.

Both losers.

 

[StreetHawk]

Both losers.

OBJ fit in as a WR2 behind Kupp. Had to finally check his ego at the door when he signed with LAR as he was slotted to be WR3 behind Woods as well til he tore his acl a week after OBJ signed. Wasn’t the go to WR as he was before.

Hopefully it can at least get grass in any stadium that can currently take it along with banning anything other than grass in any new stadium that gets built.

Well I wish they would try, considering the players who have been lost for a season or more playing there.

Playing surface is 160 feet, plus however much room is on each sideline, like 10 more yards each? So, would need another 60 feet. That's like 220 feet wide that you need an opening for in order to roll the grass outside the stadium like AZ and LV. Those were planned and the stadium built to support the structure for that wide an opening. Not sure if it is possible to change existing stadiums to do the same, or at least within a reasonable cost.

Probably the best option for a NO, LA, Det, Min is to kind of do what the Pontiac Silverdome did when the US hosted the World Cup in the 90's and lay grass in the stadium which would last a few weeks. Probably have to replace the field 2-3 times during the season, so those 3 teams (excluding LA) would have to arrange their schedule to give them 3 weeks between home games to put down new grass and have it ready for the next game.

LA, no idea how that would work with 2 teams so every week is a game. So, you can't replace the grass and have it ready in a week. Hopefully, they can figure out a way to put grass down in the LA stadium. They had to dig down so there isn't the opportunity to roll out grass like in Vegas. If that transluscent roof is good enough to allow the necessary sunlight for grass to grow and be maintained, then they should switch to grass and not worry too much about repainiting logos. Or since the Rams are the owners just have the charges use the Rams logo and maybe the Chargers get secondary logos at both 30 yard lines or something.
