My general feeling is that Seattle is an average team at best.

So I have to reiterate what only a few have said, the Seattle crowd noise is over the top. For example, Collins in the shotgun, signals for the ball. He doesn’t get it. He starts to scream at Casey trying to show he ready for the ball. Eventually he hikes the ball only after Collins walks away in disgust because the play clock expired.

The D had an extra step on our O line, most of the game. Why else do you think they blew through, even on our healthy strong side? Seattle had at least four different guyz getting through. Our guys were completely nervous and frustrated, especially the rookie.

There’s a rumor on my side of the world, that Paul Allen built that stadium to funnel the noise back down on the field. There seems to be some validity with that theory as Mike Sellers was complaining about them feeding crowd noise through the speakers. The NFL has already investigated and found nothing.

Another investigation on the stadium but targeting stadium construction would be a good idea. Paul Allen has the resources and personel to design such a stadium. Heck, hes got a whole corporation of talent and state of the art equipment at his disposal to figure out how to manipulate human sound waves. When is it to far, for attaining home team advantage?

This may have turned into a whine fest, but screw it. I dont care. We had the right team, the right coaches and the momentum damn it. This was our year and with how poorly Seattle played GB makes it more painful to think if any of this is true. :tongue

I hate to say it, yes the o-line wasn't great, but also the noise did have to do something with it. The line was getting off the snap late allowing the rushers make great jumps and get into the backfield. I hate to admit that their twelfth man had something to do with their win, but they were a factor.

a rumor?
shit,I thought that was a fact and everybody knew it,plus I dont think its a crime or against the rules to build his stadium that way,but i could be wrong
It was a great idea and I wish Snyder would have thought of it first

While I was definitely whining, :) I do believe with current technology, it will eventually go too far in the NFL. Have we reached that point? Maybe. It would be in the best interest for the NFL to keep an eye on it.

Using the noise level in Seattle as an example. If it is true and Seattle has a stadium specially designed for noise, crowd noise so loud that it virtually shuts down a opposing teams offense. Don’t you think this takes away from the game? You want to tell me that you would prefer to watch as other team start to design noise advantage stadiums to the point were the two teams normally fight it out and the best or strongest team wins is not the deciding factor, but who is the loudest?

Again, I have search the internet for any article that would support the "rumor" that Seattle has a specially made stadium and found nothing. All I have is two BG playoff losses and hearsay. To add more hearsay, Sellers stated the he believed noise was being pumped. Did he pipe up because when the Skins were in the Redzone, Sellers single handedly screwed up and burned a possible valuable timeout because he didn’t shift? Was this because he had his head up his rearend or because he couldn’t hear the QB who was 6 feet away?

All I have left to say is thank god we had our defense to make an otherwise frustrating game into something I can rant about 2 weeks later. :laughing-
