It's a game that literally decided the #1 seed last year. But yeah, lets go to …..(checks notes)…..another country to play it.

I'm guessing it'll be a week 12 bye for both after. Which isn't a bad thing IMO.

I don't like the idea of playing ANY game outside the country, but other than dealing with the altitude, which in this case won't give either team an unfair advantage, the distance from Kansas City to Mexico City is pretty much the same as the distance from Kansas City to Los Angeles. In fact, if you look at the three cities on a map, the locations almost form a perfect triangle. Shouldn't be any different than any other road game.

I do feel bad for the 15 Chargers season ticketholders, though.

I don't care as long as we get some home prime time games. It seemed every prime time game last year was on the road.

ROFL

I may take a road trip to see this game. CDMX is a great city...always a good time there!

Well, it's better than an overseas trip. It's not like the prep or travel time is going to be that much different than traveling to LA.

Indeed. I'm also ok with it taking a home game away from the Chargers instead of us. As long as the field is presentable/safe then whatever

Chargers as part of their agreement to move to Los Angeles, have to give up a home game each year for an international game.

That was my thinking. A bit more and it is international so that adds an element as well but could be worse.

I didn't know that, for how long?

start working on the grass now. It MAY be good for the game by then.

If you never hear from them again, how would you know?

I figure it would be reported when they get scraped up off the street

All of Mexico's landscapers are up here now. Field is going to suck.
