    New England crowd noise

    I noticed this last year on TV, their stadium always sounds like one of the quietest ones in the league. Tonight so far during the game, even when they score, they are pretty quiet. For people that have actually been there...is it that quiet in person???

    Yeah...they're mega-spoiled too. Half the crowd was gone by the 4th quarter.

        The crowd wasn't great, especially in the 2nd half.

        However, you have to realize people were there early on and in the stadium early for all the pre-game festivities. That had a lot to do with them running out of gas and leaving in the 2nd half.

          They are a boring bunch, for that reason they don't deserve to win a super bowl!

            That's a poor excuse. I remember when we had a night game a few years back and the opener was against the Titans and everybody was fired up at the game despite having been partying/tailgating since the morning/early afternoon ours. Yeah, we did have an extra little incentive that game, but still.

                  The funniest thing was towards the end of the game with the Raiders within the 5 yard line trying to get into the endzone, right before they went into play on tv they showed Pats fans either just sitting down, sleeping, and half the seats were empty. The fans in Buffalo woulda been on their feet going crazy cheering on their defense.(keep in mind, the Raiders WERE still in the game at that point technically)

                    Put them down all you want, but the Pats have sold out every game since 1993. They have over 50,000 people on their season-ticket waiting list, and they paid $25 just for that.

                    Buffalo can't say that.

                    The facts is everyone was partying all day, and then were in the stands for hours before the game even started. It was a Thursday night game and people had to work the next day. Those are unusual circumstances.

                      Sure, a sellout in NE and a sellout in Buffalo are really comparable.

                      Fact is, that front-runner chowd crowd WAS weak and with 3 SBs in the past 4 years, 50,000 season tickets is nothing to brag about either.

                        If the game was in Buffalo in 1994, and the Bills were up 30-14 on a Thursday night game well past midnight- the Ralph would be just as empty.

                          I'll give them this- 65-70,000 at Gillette stadium, and another 35,000 sold out at Fenway at the same time.

                            Well, we wouldn't have deserved another SB then either!
