Meh ...

Under the current CBA, they are all camp "softies". It doesn't matter where camp is held.

Facts.

Sometimes it's the slightest, most unremarkable change that makes a difference - it defies logic, makes no sense, even irrational...

But if staying in the area, getting acclimated earlier to the heat makes a difference and stops these early season slow starts, then don't mess what has worked in past successful seasons...

I say back to the red clay of Mississippi baby.

No more room service and continental breakfasts. Hello vending machines.

Gone are the beautiful rooms with mints on the pillow. Hello dorm rooms.

Make them hungry again for all they lost.

Its all a mental mind game. It works too.

I think the heat helps mentally and physically, science can say what they want. A person runs 5 miles in mild climates vs a person running 5 miles in the heat, tell me who has it tough?

Not to rehash on this subject but it's bad drafting over the years, lack of talent and coaching (see coaches that were recently fired) that makes for 3 straight 7-9 seasons. Modern medicine has proven training at altitude is better for endurance than training at sea level in hot humid conditions. Facts.

The Seahawks train in Renton, Wash. During late July/ early August, the average low temp is 59 and the high is 74 & the hated Cows practiced in Oxnard ,CA for years (until they built the posh new facilities here in Frisco). I can't think of anyone that's questioned these teams toughness the last 5 years.

It's talent and coaching, not location.
