It's so whacked in Canada now that I need cable to watch NHL and CFL but get two NFL games a week plus playoffs and SB for free with rabbit ears

Maybe a laugh track and applause are to follow?
no laugh track needed at Bills games. It's football follies every week

I used to go to games at Jones AT&T Stadium in Lubbock to watch Texas Tech before they added the visitor side suites & upper bowl seats. Capacity was 40,000 tops, yet the place was louder than most 70,000 capacity places hosting NFL games I had been to.
Also, attendance is doing great this year, so don't know where you got that idea...just check out any of the actual sites that compile all that data - https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2018/attendance.htm or http://www.espn.com/nfl/attendance
Hell, the last Cardinals game was against the Raiders, and they had 62,435 people check into that game (capacity is 65,000). Playing in an indoor stadium makes a TON of difference as you should know. I was recently at the Houston vs Bills game, and though the stadium wasn't packed by any means, it was WAAAAY louder than any Bills game I've attended in Buffalo. The acoustics of those places are awesome, and really give the home team an advantage. I can only imagine how loud & crazy it would sound if the Bills played indoors, as our fans are certainly ready to scream their heads off.I don't care what the stats say. You see the empty seats on TV

I'll give you credit again, for owning the admission of what might well be an erroneous conclusion. Many others just become a new screen name. ?

Does Andrew Luck pay to pipe in crowd noise when he's playing?
Yes, it serves to distract from his feeble arm ?

a nice contrast to the James Hardy tragedy. Maybin sounds like a great guy

given how this season has gone, I don't feel much inclined to gloat over another teams misfortunes. It's clear that Bortles is either a bust or at best a Fitz-like journeyman
-
with the decline in fan attendance at games, it is becoming increasingly apparent that teams are piping in fake crowd noise. From my TV watching, the worst culprit looks to be the Arizona Cardinals. Half of the fans attending wear the opposing teams jersey. The crowd noise really looks artificial when half the fans are looking at their phones or are otherwise not engaged in the game. Are there other obvious culprits out there?

Great tailbacks are part of what made the sport great. We are very close to defense free flag football already. The devaluing of the RB position will only hasten the demise of the sport. Offense sells the tickets but it's only meaningful against the prospect of being stopped by a good defense.

You're kidding, right? Their roster is stocked with talent on both sides of the ball and they have a HOF QB.
By the way, Lynn completely butchered the end of the game yesterday, allowing a crappy Denver team time to drive the length of the field and beat them on a last-second FG.
Rivers has never won a meaningful game. He's padded his stats tossing the alley oop to HOFer Antonio Gates. The Bolts RBs are just average. Other than Bosa, I am not well acquainted with their D but they are playing well for Lynn.

Mack is an absolute beast. He could've been our Bruce Smith.
Asking our scouts to drive across town was asking too much apparently. Ditto for Gronkowski

He's been hurt a lot, but what I saw today was a pocket collapsing in from poor tackle play. Again two top ten picks, plus Josh Kline and Quinton Spain who is probably a premier free agent guard this offseason. Something there isn't working.
Honestly I just think they don't have enough talent on offense outside of Corey Davis.
Their playcalling hasn't changed much since the Jeff Fisher days

Im just saying, the dude is always hurt.
Thats the point I was trying to make in the Jonah Williams thread. They spent two top ten picks on bookend tackles and he still gets his ass kicked. Using premier picks on linemen doesn't always help.
Is he scrambling too much or is he just not durable?

Lynn's doing a great job with mediocre talent. He should be a COTY candidate
-
He's just getting pounded every year. I'd be surprised if he plays much past age 30

He has never played up to his price tag. I question his heart. I think he's stealing money on top of always being hurt.
