Seems like it would have to come with a fairly complicated set of rules about what sort of crowd reaction is appropriate under what circumstances, and at what volume, etc, and that would be a nightmare to "officiate". You always hear about visiting teams wanting to "quiet the crowd", but if the home team gets to control what the fake crowd noise sounds like, that would never happen. Also, I'm sure there would have to be a rule against "boo'ing" controversial penalties and other calls (and non-calls).

One thing that I'm afraid needs mentioning are the fumbles by "Motor". The Bills were lucky to have recovered both of them, but against a better team, in a closer game, that's the kind of thing that can spell disaster. Don't know if it's a "technique" thing that can be coached, or if it's just better awareness, but that needs to get corrected, especially if they increase his workload to where we all want to see it.

Even TO thinks AB has gone too far ..... TO says AB should take a few steps back
