    Possibly?

    POSSIBLY?!

    That's CLAY ON HIS ARMS!

      No, college/professional grass is better maintained than "normal" grass. You know that Steelers mud bowl game at Heinz Field you linked to? 6 days later they played a home game on the same field and the field was fantastic. Why? Because the grounds keepers and facilities maintenance guys for NFL and college teams get A LOT of money to make sure the fields are in as good of condition as possible.

      If a grass field gets too torn up, NFL and college teams can afford to replace part or all of the field. If the turn-around time is too quick for sod to take, they can do a pretty good job of repairing it and making it look good and play well. Teams with FieldTurf roll and brush the field turf after every game. If a part of FieldTurf were to get damaged, that individual roll can be pulled out and a replacement sewn in.

      The reason the Chicago Bears grass is so terrible is because the Chicago Bears do not operate Soldier Field. It belongs to the Chicago Park District who in turn contracts some of the operations out to an independent company. Upside: Bears don't have to pay for it, Downside: The Chicago Park District can't afford it and so they let the grass get as damaged as possible before replacing it.

      You're able to cherry pick these "disaster scenario" field situations because they often get the most air time and dramatic pictures, but the fact of the matter is, it happens maybe a few times a year at most all across football.
      Ok, quick couple of questions. Was the next week's game played in the rain? And ignore the maintenance for one second, which is more slippery? Dirt or Mud?

      The basic point, the next game would have been better even if they hadnt re-sodded the field.

      Plus, like I said, the grass will still get torn out over the course of a game even if it is better or new

      I guess you have me with Soldier Field.

      And I'll make this comment again, sure, it happens maybe a few times a year. But how many rainy games do we see a year?

        Again with not reading the entire post. I'll say it again, just for you. It's highly unlikely you didnt see a dirty uniform like you're implying.

          In Miami? Like 4-6. And the players almost never look like what you posted, even in the worst case scenario, especially since the Marlins don't play there anymore.

            You see dirty uniforms, for sure, but not filthy/muddy uniforms.

            Nothing close to what you posted.

            Check out the end of this game. It's POURING. Guys aren't really that dirty.

              Fair enough.

              But as I said, I only posted them because the required minimal effort to use. They were just an example of what bad weather can do to football uniforms. Nothing more lol.

              I still think the degradation in the original screenshot isnt enough however. Needs a tad more

                Extreme mud is a rarity in football. Does it happen, obviously yes your pictures show that. But I'm glad it isn't in the game, with how EA does things it would get like that every game. Subtly has never been their strong point, when they implement stuff they take it to 11.

                  Madden 08 was the worst. Had giant puddles and mud everywhere. Looked so dumb.

                    That's a bit too extreme though. I mean that field had been through the highschool playoffs and another bowl game besides that one, plus it was raining. All in a 7-day span. I think something in between this and the screen shot would be perfect for rain games.

                      I actually agree with this sentiment. However, it was better than the complete lack of field degradation we get now

                      Though on extremely boring days I had fun seeing how much I could tear up the field in the rain in practice mode.

                        How much exactly do you want man?

                          I think you'll find that no matter where it is, grass, is grass.
                          I didn't say grass. I said field. You should know that because you quoted my post where I said that.

                          To answer the question that should've been asked, yes, college and pro fields are much better kept than high school fields.

                              We'd all be a little happier though if EA would be consistent in what they "provide".

                                That's my picture haha.

                                It's amazing that wasn't even played in the rain I believe.

                                The issue is that uniforms don't get dirty/scuffed at all on artificial surfaces, only natural grass.
