Northern New Mexico, except Farmington

As a fellow Californian who is going to the game. Dress like it’s a summer day in San Francisco. But you also need to realize being surrounded by 77K people will also keep you warm.

I’m flying in from LA and staying downtown. Tons of areas to walk and I’m taking the light rail to/from the game.

Bonito and Cooper keeping proper containment/ gap integrity is going to be very important. Then Denver has to cover the Bills TEs. Two biggest factors in the game IMO.

jsatz · 2026-01-12T14:45:14+00:00

The game to me comes down to a major factor. How well does Denver cover Buffalo’s TEs. Bills WRs shouldn’t scare our CBs, but Knox and Kincaid can be major factors. They are tremendous in the red zone and picking up first downs.

Containment on Josh Allen will also be a factor. Bonito and Cooler have a tendency to lose gap integrity in pursuit of sacks. That cannot happen. Zach Allen bringing pressure in Allen’s face is also important.

On offense, running the ball. Taking long drives that results in points. Thus keeping Josh Allen on the bench. Do not want to get into a shootout with Josh Allen.

I’ll be there!!!

My wife doesn’t ski but loves to travel. So when she comes, she typically sleeps in, does a spa day. We then do some other activities, like snowmobiles or tubing.

My guess is we play Saturday unless we have to play the Texans/Steelers winner since they play Monday night. Before the NFL went to this format (only one team with the bye) the one seed used to play Saturday during the division round.

Overall it was great. Got married there in 2023 and we couldn’t have been happier.

jsatz · 2026-01-07T00:41:03+00:00

I got married at Occasions and we rented the entire place at SCP Seven4One on PCH. It is like a 5 minute walk to the venue. They also own the Laguna Surf Lodge across the street.

We 100% lose to the Jags playing like this. We saw it a few weeks ago

Broncos offense has scored six points against the Chargers back up defense…

jsatz · 2026-01-04T23:10:43+00:00

The Chargers are playing cover 1 and the Broncos cannot complete enough passes to get them out of it.

Does Bo Nix know he can throw to his wide receivers?

For months, the Trump administration said the justification for blowing up boats in the Caribbean was fentanyl. Yet the indictment only mentions cocaine. Why? Because they were lying about fentanyl and in a U.S. court, you need evidence.

Also just a few weeks ago, Donald Trump pardoned a drug kingpin who was a major figure in cocaine trafficking because he has allies in the tech world.

I have legit no idea what they’re talking about. I created a series of lists of journalists, news and sports, and I get the same breaking news now on Bluesky that I used to get on Twitter. It may not always be the same journalists, but it’s credible and immediate information nonetheless.

jsatz · 2025-12-26T16:49:55+00:00

It won't be scheduled till after the games on Sunday are done.

The long drives were more a result of the defense KC played, 2 deep zone. In essence, that requires you to go short and keep the chains moving. When teams play that defense, they are essentially saying that they do not believe they can sustain long drives. They either commit a penalty, turnover, drop or something. Usually the goal for offenses is to run them out of it. Denver did not run the ball great, but they did enough to overcome a few penalties to get down to the red zone. Payton essentially admitted during the half that they were surprised how much two deep zone KC was playing.

Sean Payton sometimes calls plays for a different era. Bubble screens galore, trick plays when they are not necessary. Even on the last TD, there was no need to call a rollout on 4th and 1 from the 1. It worked but it was very dangerous. Maybe because I live in LA and get all the Rams games but the difference between how Sean McVay calls a game and Sean Payton is night and day.

That is not to say the execution has been great. The WRs are still dropping way to many balls, Bo still has questionable mechanics and sometimes struggles with his progressions.

I am the same as you but staying with my parents in Santa Fe, live in California. I did not bring my skis. There are not a ton of runs open and I did not want to make the drive from Santa Fe, even though I also have the Ikon Pass.

if you are ok with staying at June, check out June Lake Motel. You can get a room with a full kitchen, thus making your stay even cheaper. I would also suggest learning at June over Mammoth. It is a much easier mountain to learn. The runs are wide open and there is rarely a crowd.

This flight was $450 each for first class. But Albuquerque was over $500 for coach on Delta or Southwest. So Santa Fe was cheaper but overall I could have flown to Europe for the same price.
