YoloinOhio Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 @ProFootballTalk: Report: Falcons alleged to have piped in crowd noise when opponents had ball; NFL discipline "expected" http://t.co/Ubp8SLkIVY
stevestojan Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Uh-oh! Can't wait to see how many more Super Bowls they'll win post noisegate?
Beef Jerky Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Guess they can't get a natural crowd noise... Falcons fans should be ashamed of themselves.
YoloinOhio Posted February 1, 2015 Author Posted February 1, 2015 The most embarrassing part is it didn't even help. Dead last in total defense in the league.

Beef Jerky Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Seahawks have been accused of the same (and several others) Might have more effect than psi, honestly, depending on the volumes - let's see the calls for year long suspensions! Seahawks have a stadium built to amplify crowd noise. They don't pipe it in off of loud speakers. They built the stadium to bypass a rule.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 They don't need to be disciplined. The public shaming should be sufficient. Atlanta is right up there with phony sports cities like seattle and LA.

Nanker Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I've heard it can be traced to luxury boxes, high ticket prices and a more polite crowd.
NoSaint Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Seahawks have a stadium built to amplify crowd noise. They don't pipe it in off of loud speakers. They built the stadium to bypass a rule. I'm aware of the stadium design. I'm also aware of teams accusing them of getting extra juice from the speakers. It's been brought up a few times I remember.
Mr. WEO Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Seahawks have a stadium built to amplify crowd noise. They don't pipe it in off of loud speakers. They built the stadium to bypass a rule. What rule?
NoSaint Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 What rule? I think he's implying their stadium design makes it so they don't have to pipe in sound...
Mr. WEO Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I think he's implying their stadium design makes it so they don't have to pipe in sound... It's hard to imagine that they were able to engineer the stadium to maximize sound amplification.
NoSaint Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 It's hard to imagine that they were able to engineer the stadium to maximize sound amplification. True or not, it's regularly discussed during their home games. I assume it can be engineered, to a degree. How much better there's is at funneling noise to the field I don't know
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Re the Seahawks, they were accused a number of years ago of illegally piping in crowd noise too.
DC Tom Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 True or not, it's regularly discussed during their home games. I assume it can be engineered, to a degree. How much better there's is at funneling noise to the field I don't know To a great degree. Public venues have been engineered for sound transmission for a couple thousand years. Usually it goes the other way, though - stage to audience, not the other way around.
Mr. WEO Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Re the Seahawks, they were accused a number of years ago of illegally piping in crowd noise too. Colts did it for years...
Beef Jerky Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 What's funny is Seattle has more false start penalties on themselves at home then the away teams.
3rdand12 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 It's hard to imagine that they were able to engineer the stadium to maximize sound amplification. no it isnt actually To a great degree. Public venues have been engineered for sound transmission for a couple thousand years. Usually it goes the other way, though - stage to audience, not the other way around. Hence the Balcony reference? What's funny is Seattle has more false start penalties on themselves at home then the away teams. here we go...
NoSaint Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 What's funny is Seattle has more false start penalties on themselves at home then the away teams. Can we chart this?!? 5 year rolling averages?!?
