Amazing how innovation has changed as Astroturf was actually invented because they couldn’t grow grass in the astrodome in the 60s Edited September 22, 2020 by BudAdams Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like they would've crushed this Raiders team a year or two ago. The window with Brees appears to be closing fast. Those crushing playoff losses (MIN 2x, LAR) the past few seasons are going to haunt them for a long, long time. Those were their best chances, especially 2018. The window with Brees has closed. Don’t be shocked if he has an ‘injury’ and they go with Winston or Hill. BudsOilers, and rns90 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart investment by the Raiders there have been many studies that highlight injuries occur at a higher rate on fields that are artificial turf compared to natural grass.

OilerTitanHybrid Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 I had seen before how they have rolled out lights to hover above the turf to help grow the grass, but I'm not sure if they are using that technique in Vegas or not.

The whole field is on a massive tray that they roll in for games and out to receive natural sun light to grow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, was just reading about how they do it on wiki. The college team plays on the artificial turf... The stadium has a roll-in natural bermuda grass field similar to the one at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.[71] While the Raiders play on the grass field, UNLV prefers to play on an artificial turf surface. The artificial turf is placed directly on the stadium's concrete floor, and the tray holding the grass field is designed so that it can roll in and out without disrupting the turf underneath it. titanskick8851, and scine09 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know everyone today is so impressed with the big numbers and they can't differentiate between fantasy football and the actual game on the field. But I refuse to put Brees up there with the likes of Brady, Unitas, Montana, Elway, Marino, Graham, Staubach, Starr, or even Terry Bradshaw.

The volume stats are all nice and everything but when you pass the ball as much as their offense does, even to the detriment of winning, it’s somewhat hollow. I had the same problem with Warren Moon to be honest. He never would’ve sniffed the Hall of Fame if it wasn’t for the run and shoot offense Years allowing him to compile gaudy numbers oldschool 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
