NFL in Mexico City, 2017 edition: Patriots and the Raiders?

Kraft is apparently very interested to play in Mexico.
What do you guys think about that?

it was an away game to oakland anyway, now to mexico. 7382 ft altitude is the issue
 
It would be an away game anyways... would it be that much of a difference than to be flying to Oakland?

Actually a tad closer. 2,278 miles from Boston to Mexico City via air, 2,645 miles from Boston to Oakland. Of course it could be Las Vegas by then (2,372 miles).

Altitude is the biggest concern; it's higher than Denver.

Actually after running the numbers it is a tad bit of a shorter flight surprisingly. So I guess I am for it if not for the altitude.

However avoiding to need to go to Oakland can't be all bad :p Their fans and city are not that good :p

Thanks for the info. Yes the fact with the altitude is a concern, especially because we know how they played in Denver the last couple of years.
 
Mexico City is a sewer! LA has better air quality. Plus the narco crime. Did you see the halo of smog over the stadium? Plus the turf was terrible. Players eventually had to go to the longest pikes they could find.

Why expose your players/fans/refs/etc to these elements?

The Cowboys have already cornered the Mexican market, let them play down there.
 
Not a home game for us, I'll def take it.
 
I'll be really pissed if the Raiders move to Vegas and the Pats game gets switched to Mexico City!!

Because if they play in Vegas, I'm there BABY!!!!!

What could be better than a weekend in Vegas with buddies, topped with Patriots game?
