    Plus the scheme isn't so stale that I know if it's a run or pass by the formation, so even average receivers have a chance.

      Kirksey our multiple games. Time for cm3 return? He’d have to do it for free w/ his 2m rams paycheck offset this year

        We all knew the Kirksey injury was coming. No surprise really. He hasn’t stayed healthy in years.

            No. Will this be the Summers of our discontent?

              So I wonder who gets to control the level of noise getting piped in. Cuz if it's up to the teams, then in Seattle and New England the coaches will have the volume turned up to 12 on a scale of 1-10 when the opponent has the ball.

              I would hope the NFL is regulating this.

              And why not take it further? You could have coaches choose individually what each player hears, and give everyone a set of headphones. Then The Flower could have disdainful crowd comments playing in Aaron Rodger's ear constantly ("You suck Rodgers! You're over the hill!"), and the guy would play at an MVP level.

              Wait, maybe that's what's already happening!

                Possibly. There's film of him now so teams might find ways to expose him. I'm cautiously optimistic he will be at least ok, and I trust him more than Burks.
                ATL is a mess right now - GB is better on both sides of the ball IMO.
                If Julio doesn't play, this game should easily go GB's way. He's the only player they have that worries me -- without him Ryan has nobody to feed the ball to outside of Gurley, and his days are behind him.

                  I believe the NFL has said it can't be louder than 70dB, which is not that loud. It is also different from the crowd noise heard over the TV broadcast.

                  This blog post compares examples of noise levels. It is broken down by Noise Source, Decibel Level, and Decibel Effect.

                    I think they may have bumped it up to 80dB last week.

                      Either Rodgers should shut up about being so happy with the silence, or else he's just baiting them to turn up the volume - kinda the "Brer Rabbit in the briar patch" thing, if any of ya'all are old enough to remember that.

                        I think I read that somewhere too, but played it safe with 70dB. I think they bumped it up because it was like a tennis match in those dome games.

                          A few members of the Titans just tested positive. Will there be football this week?

                            Only 8 so far. This is why they have 16 member practice squads this year. There's some talk of moving the game to Monday night.

                              Things could get out of control if the Queens got it, too.

                              2020 is a shitty year.
