I can’t remember who, but someone on local KC sports radio made a good point last year before (and that’s important) the Raider Christmas game. Might’ve been Petro? Which is surprising.
Whoever it was said that being the home team on a Christmas game can be a disadvantage. Most of these guys are the richest in their families, so they have the biggest homes and are hosting big family events this week. It can be a big distraction to have those extra people around and all the coordination that comes along with it. He said not the be surprised if the Chiefs come out with their heads somewhere else. Turned out to be true.
Whoever it was said he heard that from a former player who played on Christmas at home once. Former player said the whole team was distracted all week. Road team doesn’t have the same issue.
