What's going on with Arrowhead at night?

This is neat from @DataWithBliss -- the dropped pass rate at night at Arrowhead is the only stadium/game time combination in the NFL over 10%@cheetah was right -- it's hard to catch in Kansas City at night

Too many hookers in the parking lot.

Or most likely not enough

Maybe we're cheering too loudly..

I saw that Tweet last night and thought it was really interesting. Is it a small N issue or is there something there?

Definitely worth watching. Because both of the games where we've really shit the bed (and for all the hand-wringing, there really only have been 2 where the WRs have been abysmal) were night games at home.

Is it like...the dark red stands/the night sky/the ball being dark? Like what's an explanation here?

You tailgating?

Might help if the NFL would use a football similar to the old light up Luminators from back in the 90s. Hell, make some hybrid light up with the Nerf whistle turbo version for some real fun. Think of the noise Mahomes can get on one of those.

No more excuses of any kind for "professional" receivers catching a ball whether at night, during the day, in the rain or snow.

We all watched the Eagles receivers catch wet footballs when it hit their hands, at night in Arrowhead. We just need to be patient and hope our receivers improve.

Thank God for our rookie 2nd rounder. Geezo.

Sorry didn't mean to down vote

Something like this should be an advantage for the Chiefs. It doesn't help anyone's personal statistics, but since our guys play lots more games in Arrowhead, they should be more accustomed to the situation. It's the opponents that have the bigger problem because they rarely play there.

Too late. i saw the downvote and my ego was crushed. No way in hell I can work the rest of the day.

That's the Native American curse (or something).

Maybe its all the BBQ smoke settling into the bowl of the stadium, causing eye irritation, and making them watery and blurry.

[Titty Meat]

I can't believe they are going to try and rennovate the stadium again

Won't happen. Frank White is going to chase them to KS.

I doubt 2 or 3 games a year gives much of an experience edge. I'd rather things just be normal. Our offense is a strength, and drops are one of the only things that can kill it.
