If we're talking stadium locations, Washington wins by a literal mile. FedEx Field is a dump in the middle of nowhere, MD and requires you to walk a mile to reach public transportation.

Lol Arrowhead is 8 miles outside of town and completely surrounded by the trashiest parts of the city and suburb. Only z trip can take you there or pick you up, and it's still nearly loving impossible. I guarantee I could turn out of the gate and find at least 3 mattresses on the side of the road in half a mile. If you squint, you realize that you shouldn't even really be in the city, you should be in Raytown and Raytown is a loving poo poo hole.

Fedex is hilariously bad and you may not be able to design a worse stadium location if you wanted to, which is possible because Dan Snyder actively wants his fans to suffer while also milking them for as much money as he can.

But it couldn't be anywhere else because there would be no room for parking!!!!! Promoting the tailgating experience is probably the best thing Carl Peterson ever did for the team because holy poo poo is that a wasteland of parking lot surrounded by nothing. That said, the tailgating is pretty good. e: I remember there used to be an abandoned prison facility literally across the road from the sports complex. Like the type of place that seems cool to hang out at if you're a bored high school kid and has no other redeeming values at all.

List of US cities which host NFL teams that I have been to and my rear end in a top hat opinion of them (nominal cities, not whatever lovely industrial plot in an adjacent state where they actually play): Seattle: downtown is kind of lovely, but they've got awesome parks and some of the more residential areas like west Seattle and some of the suburbs are quite nice. I like the PNW. San Francisco: very picturesque but very touristy. Hell to drive through. Surrounding counties are heaven. Nice climate. LA: It's LA. SoCal is great, even if there are too many people. San Diego (still counts because they had a team when I was there): Better than LA. Beautiful coastline. Las Vegas (doesn't really count yet): Horrible. The surrounding desert is pretty though. Houston: endless sprawl, pretty garbage, but they've got NASA which is awesome. That's all they've got though. New Orleans: great place to be a tourist and see live music, the nice areas are very pretty. Falls off a cliff one block outside of where you'd go as a tourist. Chicago: loving cold. Sort of like Toronto only simultaneously more and less poo poo. Detroit: only been once, many years ago. Ok it's a burned out husk, but it's got more culture and history than any of the lovely cities it gets lumped with, and most of the good ones. Would go back. Miami: already covered that New York: Its New York. What else can I say. If live there tomorrow if I could afford it, but if I could afford it, I could afford to live in California.

Atlanta rules as a city and their new stadium might be the only design+location combo that beats Century Link. I’d love to go to an Atlanta game. Even more perplexing because Cleveland sucks lemons.

Cinci has a really good design infrastructure -wise for accessibility to both stadiums. The city itself doesn't really have any strong drawbacks or perks, other than being super cheap. I've been to NFL stadiums in Indi, Detroit, Cleveland, and ATL and Cinci's is the easiest to get in and out of. Paul Brown Stadium has nothing to distinguish it, it was built in '00 but looks older.

my city has some of the best grocery stores around, full of different brands of food & drink. you can go in there with $200 and come out with enough food to last you anywhere from one week to 45 days depending on what you purchase. there's that much variety in the shop. shop until you drop

Codependent Poster posted:He was all right. Nothing to get too excited about but when he's healthy he does all right Sounds about right for a 1 year/2.25 million deal. He's DT depth along with Jarran Reed and Poona Ford, and he seems like a big presence. Carroll loves a rotating D line so I imagine he'll get in games but will play fewer snaps than he's used to. Hawks still have a lot of cap space, enough to extend their big names and sign some more FAs to plug holes.

Detroit was dirty, depressing, and not pleasant and I wish that area could turn around and get investment like with Flint maybe one day God willing getting drinkable water. Pittsburg just felt dirty and confusing to navigate, like their nightlife area is very shabby. It’s cool it’s got a hill but doesn’t feel like a place i would spend time in. I haven’t been to a lot of other cities for the NFL tho. Cleveland is actually pretty great. Even my relatives from overseas agree they’d rather live and raise a family here and just visit everywhere else in the USA and they’ve been to the major cities.
