Time to play Devil's Advocate. This attack on the fans is nothing new. The players and coaches going as far back as Ditka have chided the fans to cheer louder and make more noise when the other team has the ball. I have been reading such quotes for years by various players. There must be something to it.

It just might be blamed on Stadium design,not holding sound within the confines.

I'm curious as to what Long would say is the proper fan response to a team that was shut out in the first half...silence?

True, it was like a funeral yesterday. They actually had video content admonishing people to "get loud" on Miami 3rd downs. The 150 Dolphin fans were louder.

He has already apologised this morning on some xrt show he appears on. No big deal what he said. He plays hard and said something dumb.

I'm sure the "fans" at home were screaming on their couches. For their fantasy players.

I must admit that the only time I screamed was when I couldn't get a signal to check my fantasy teams in real time. Thanks Obama.

after the first half of 12 3rd dopwn conversions...it's get tough to keep getting loud.

Bears, Steelers, Packers are the best fans in the NFL. They travel well, they show up almost no matter what and they do as the organizations asks...mostly.

Seahawk, Falcons, Cardinals, etc etc...are there when things are going well.

STH, so I'm at 5-6 home games a year. Quieter than any game I can recall. Then again, 0 points in the first half doesn't help. Loudest part of the game was after they scored coming out of the 2nd half. Crowd was very into it every play that entire 12 play 7 minute Miami drive to score a TD.

It seemed when there was a reason to cheer, the crowd was into it. Tannehill got sacked, crowd loud and stayed loud for a bit. Miami's 3rd down that was stopped, crowd loud. Loud on 4th down as well until Tannehill took off (yet again!) for that big yardage run.

I see no issue with how the crowd behaved yesterday. There was no reason to cheer that team going into halftime. Players need to realize that some of that boo'ing is directed at the coaches as well.

Lambeau crowds are pretty tame. Lambeau has a lot of tourists and season ticket holder grandmas.

So its like the Wrigley Field of the NFL. Fans don't care what is going on on the field.

That figures.

That cheezeball exhortation to get loud on the scoreboard doesn't help

Sure doesn't. Although, I'll always have a soft spot for the Great Outdoors Let's Go Bears video.

Most people were boo'ing because the team was down two scores and went to the lockerroom with all three timeouts left when they could have at the very least forced the Miami punter to pin them deep. Never know what's going to happen, blocked, shank etc. Trestman's in game management is very poor.

If the design lets the sound out then why, just a year or two ago, were Jay, et al. crying about the fans being too loud when the offense was on the field?

No where did I say that. It's not a absurdly loud stadium like KC, OAK or SEA.

Tourists=Packers fans across the globe visit because it's the Mecca of fields. A stadium somehow ancient yet renovated correctly with a pro shop, hall of fame and capacity for tailgating and super bowl.

Old grandmas - pay attention. Its just they don't make noise when their own offense is on the field bc they're not fat drunk and stupid like their idiot rivals to the south.

0 points, 55 yards of 1st half offense. Going into the tunnel will seem the loudest.

When it comes to traveling, the endzone seats are what visitors get cheapest and thus loudest from the opponents.
