Crowd Noise

I'm so glad I picked to go to this game as my 1 for the year! The drive home to Pittsburgh is much better after a Buffalo victory.

I have never seen/heard the crowd so into the game as we were in the 4th quarter. We were beating on the bleechers, screaming, clapping...it was amazing! Needless to say I have no voice what so ever left but it was well worth it. You could tell that the team fed off of our energy especially when Stroud and Whitner kept giving us motions of pumping it up!

Trent was poised in the last few drives, the defense came through when they needed to, and Ryan finished the deal with a sweet 38yd field goal to win it! 3-0 and atop the AFC East...oh it's a great day to be a Bills fan!

On TV the crowd seemed pretty tame for most of the first 3 quarters….true?

Not true. One of the loudest games I’ve been to.

Crowd was very, very loud.

When I came home thugh, I noticed it almost seemed pathetic on TV. I was suprised how much CBS drowned out the noise…

It seemed that way to me too

but with all the strange occurrences it was a tough game to get real loud about. But when the team needed the fans, they were there for them.

the 4th quarter was the best of course and it was worth the 4hr+ drive!

my cousins were at the game and they told me after the bills scored for their final td and kicked off the noise in the stadium was crazy. they were saying that they could not talk the people next to them cause it was too loud. ive been to a few games and have never experienced crowd noise like that

I think that’s a mistake that the NFL makes in drowning out the crowd noise. most people do not tune in for the announcers they want to see their team and feel the excitement in the crowd. Hearing the crowd noise through the TV used to produce a more “game-like” experience. Somewhere along the line the NFL made it more about the announcers and their analysis.

As someone who was at the Monday Night Game last year and the game yesterday I don’t think you could get louder than it was after Kelsay’s tip/pass/six play in that game. The thing about the game this week is it was very sustained… the fans never lost hope. We could always get jacked up for third down (or anytime the Raiders had the ball really).
