Zac Taylor said something yesterday that really left me scratching my head.
"It's tough to win games on the road."
Is that really true right now? How many fans did Indy have? 5,000?
You're not dealing with an exactly hostile crowd, you're not dealing with struggling to hear the snap count, etc.
It really doesn't seem like to me, that home or way matters all that much this year. It would be one thing if we had to go 2k miles out West, and had to deal with the time difference and jet lag. But Indy is about 100 miles away.
Winning on the road can be tough, in normal seasons. This season? Not as much.
Dwelling on the home vs. away angle can often be seen an excuse. (Good teams still win on the road.) But in 2020 it almost seems like an embarrassment to even mention it.
