That game against Atlanta is one more notch in a troublesome 2017 season. Once more, the Colorado Rapids find themselves in last place in the Western Conference. Here's one big reason why.
The Road Warriors the Rapids Ain't
The Colorado Rapids are 0-7-0 (W-L-T) on the road. 5-1-3 at home (not bad), but unless the Rapids figure out ways to get points—any points—on the road, the playoffs are out of the question.
In 2016, the Rapids were 15-6-13, tallying 59 points. Their home record was 11-0-6, leaving a road record of 4-6-7.
