Ok, listen up guys, and gals. It's Thursday morning about 10:30 or so. Although there has been some good smack, albeit few and far between, can we get past how 'loud' your stadium is? We know about loudness, heck we just got done beating a team in a 'loud' stadium.

So, unless you guys come up with something else, the Jag fans are gonna have to go back over to the tacks board to actually look for good smack.
 
The Raiders committed 7 or 8 false starts in the game they lost to the Texans here at Reliant Stadium. Unless your Gary Coleman look-a-like has a loud voice, he will not be heard either. I expect the Jags will have several false starts this Sunday.
 
You haven't heard loud like Texan Loud. And You haven't seen our Sharper image yet. I did mention we would Peek in on Leftwich. And you think the Dolts can match us Decible for Decible, I doubt it. Go ahead, look beyond Sunday, We will enjoy that.

Ok listen up, we have beat this subject to death too, just ask Grid, your ambassador. He was served a big piece of this pie, besides, the raiders team sucks, just ask Jerry Porter.

First, Gary plays in the shotgun formation, and looks to stay that way. Second, in the shotgun formation, it is all hand gestures, leg movements, and looks. If you think he is gonna bark out commands in the shotgun, you are crazier then I think. Won't happen.

Oh yeah, in that other loud stadium, the RCA dome, how many false starts did Gary have again?

Next
 
Gary won't have false starts. It is his line that makes that happen after being intimidated by US, (the Crowd).
 
RCA Dome is like a shsshed golf crowd politely clapping when the time is right.
Reliant Stadium is migrane headache loud. While Gary may be signalling with his hands and feet, the offensive linemen will never know what is happening.
 
Come on guys, you did have a team, the Oilers remember, they were in a dome too, a dome so loud, Mark Brunell had to whisper (literally) the plays in the huddle, because that team was being beat so badly, this fan base had gone home midway thru the first quarter.

We will stop talking about how loud our stadium is when you stop talking about beating the colts. What? You dont want to stop talk about beating the colts? Well we dont want to stop talking about our stadium.

Deal with it, or go home to your board.

Well ok, if I hurt your feelings, I will just take my football home, and go play with real fans. idonno:
 
Hey there kitty, you don't have to tuck your tail and run. I bet they won't black this Sellout out in Florida, Oh Yea it is an away game. It must be nice to get to see at least half of your games on TV in Jacksonvile.

I bet the Jacksonville stadium is extremely quiet with the crowds ya'll get there.
How embarrassing will it be if they can't sellout a playoff game?
 
I already tried logical arguements with them.. the fans over their are sensitive as hell. Trust me.. no matter what you say, they have some smart *** comment about how it doesnt apply.

just go to your own board :P.. your arguements are appreciated there.
 
They are jealous...this is their capacity crowd.

:rofl: Classic!!

It's o.k. you played .500 ball against a first/second year expansion team, Jagfan. :hmmm:
 
Anyone ever heard (or read) anything about statistics being kept regarding crowd-induced penalties, fumbles (*Kerry Collins), burned timeouts, ......?

The commentators were talking about it during the MN game. Through that point in the season opposing teams playing in Reliant had 12 false starts (they got 6 more that day)--the next nearest team at that point was 7.
 
How bout this lets say ure rookie QB actually gets going without a false start. Can he hold onto the ball? While he is running around on the field confused because he can't hear himeself think, the Texans D will squash him and he will turn the ball over at least twice this weekend.
 
Jags fan did we make u cry ?
do i need to sing you a lolabye ?
Ok lets get Bill Nye the science guy

He will tell you in Reliant sound does travel
I'm sorry YOUR stadium was built out of gravel

If i'm not mistaken your team does suck
you beat the colts and we dont give a fu**

Do i hear smack oh that was Byron going down
Ouch sorry R. Smith pounded him to the ground

I'm sorry were gonna beat you
yes its true
But you knew better than to mess with the Red White and Blue (TEXANS)
 
man i didnt realize how much prettier our stadium is than theirs !!! Shouldnt even put their pictures on the same page ! Thats like putting Rosey Odonnell and Carman Electra side by side,,,just aint right !
 
I thought the reason they were having the Super Bowl in Jacksonville this year was because they wanted to test out those 40,000 stadium seats nobody's ever used. At least THAT game will sell out--2 other cities will send fans there to handle that.

Are we talking about the 2 - 5 Raiders that have beaten the Bills and the Bucs? Call Vegas, lets increase the handicapp. Wow 8 false starts. :headbang:

Yeah, OK...Forget about the league-leading Vikings offense that committed 5 false starts in that same stadium. I'm sure your 25th-ranked rushing attack compares favorably with the team that's outscoring you by an average of 10 points a game.

Speaking of bad teams like the Raiders, should we mention the TRULY sad, pathetic Bills that you needed a last-second FG to beat?

How about the sad, pathetic Titans that you similarly only beat by 3?

Now, back to your failure to support your home team.

It was a last second touchdown against the Bills. Geez Jack, you need to get your stats right. Jaguars are more of holding team than a false start team. Also 90% of shotguns aren't called "hut, hut"... That is why you always see a QB bob his leg seconds before the snap. But you knew that right Jack.

It isn't like we have seen the Raiders hike a ball into Kerry Collins face in the shotgun or Culpepper calling time-outs from the shotgun and coming back in with an under center play or anything. Guess those most have been the 10% of shotgun plays where the QB wasn't doing the hokey pokey.
 
All I can say is that I live in Orlando, and I pay $174 to see all my Texans games. Somehow the only games that have been "blacked out" in two years were played in Jax. I pray that the Jax crowd will fill it out the last week of the season.

I'm sure that, under the right circumstances (ie. Jags making the playoffs), the bandwagon will fill up with "lifelong" Jaguar fans. :hehe:
 
The stadium is very loud. However, I think it has more to do with the design of the stadium than it does the fans. Texan fans aren't that special, I don't think. Usually, the stadium is only about half full for the start of the noon games.. Also, where I sat during the Oakland game, the entire section of fans sat on their butts the entire game. I know it's a very different atmosphere in the Bull Pen but as a whole, our fans are on par with the majority of the league. Fortunately, our stadium is awesome!!
 
To avoid TV blackouts for the Detroit and Tennessee games, the Jaguars would have to sell approximately 12,500 tickets for Detroit and about 11,500 for Tennessee. That's not to sell out; that's to avoid blackout. That's a lot of tickets.

I don't know, man, the Astrodome used to be called the House of Pain! Partly due to the Glanville-style of play, but also because it was so loud!

And if Texans fans aren't that special, then why did Shawn Salisbury of ESPN say that Reliant is quickly becoming one of the toughest places to play in the NFL due to crowd noise? :confused:

Why did we lead the league in opposing team "mishaps" (Casserly's words) in the NFL...a lead, I might add, that was a 2:1 ratio over the second place crowd in those statistics.

No, Texans fans ARE special! And we will show it again this Sunday!

LET'S GET READY TO RUUUUUUUMBLE!!!!! :headbang:

Actually, that would be less then 10,000, both games, the Jags would have to sell there junior. The Jags will sell that, and then some, with no problem. Too bad the Jags have an actual fan base that shows up, and not some PSL owners to help them out.

Oh one other point to be made, the Jags have at this point in time, more tickets sold to both games, even without selling another 10k, then what the Texans will sell in any game this season.

Hey double, the last time the Jags were in the Astro dome, or 'The house of pain' as you called it, it was so loud, that Mark Brunell had to whisper the plays to his team mates. I should say he was so loud, the stadium itself you could hear a pin drop in.
 
I'm sorry, does the lame duck Oilers in the Astrodome and the Texans in Reliant Stadium have anything to do with each other?

Actually JUNIOR, Check your Jaguars main site...thats where I got the information from. I didn't pull that figure out of my ***.
 
The "House of Pain" was during the glory years of the Oilers. Not the lame-duck season that was their last.

BTW, there has not been one blacked-out Texans game. Not even one in 2 1/2 years.

Proof in the form of a link to facts, please.

IIRC, all of Reliant has already been sold out in the form of season tickets.
 
Hmmm..You mean our 72,000 seats ARE actually filled....not compared to your 63,000 with 12,000 remaining seats.
 
While we are on the subject of Stadium smack, I have been to a few and can offer my experience as a Chiefs/Titans fan. Arrowhead once was the loudest stadium in the NFL. I havent been there in a few years and it is still loud but not having been there im not sure if it as loud as it once was. The RCA dome is not loud, the Titans fans made more noise than the Colts fans the times that I was there. The Colesuem in Nashville once was almost as loud as Arrowhead but lately has the atmoshere of a golf gallery. Tiger Woods could tee off at midfield when the opposition has a critical 3rd and 5 and not have any complaints. I hate to smack my own but sometimes its gotta be done. People say its because they are losing but it wasnt very loud the second game of the year vs the Colts when they were 1-0 so that argument doesnt hold water. The fact is a lot of Titans fans are complacent and spoiled. Hopefully some lean times will send those that sit on there hands packing and get some fresh blood in there. I have never been to Relient or Alltell but I know they both can be loud. Some players I have heard interviewed say Relient is almost as loud as Arrowhead. Alltell was once a very loud and tough place to play because the Chiefs always had trouble with it being loud back in the mid-late 90's. BTW I heard they were going to bring in the Tarp next year to cover thousands of seats at Alltell. Im not sure if that is true or not.
 
I'm still curious where is the source of information.

It sounds more and more like some folks speak out of their assumption.
 
Hmmm, I have been to several different stadiums in my days. I always make the Jags/Texans game in houston (cept this year dangit) and houstons is not that loud. Its not bad, but it is nowhere near the top 5. Even at the end of last years Jags/Texans game it never got anywhere near Arrowhead. Not smack, just my thoughts.
 
Well Arrowhead is the mark that everyone else is judged by.

It helps that it holds 82,000+ and has a record sell-out of over 100 games.

Anyone can say what they want, but I'll take Chris Berman's opinion over an opposing fan's opinion anyday. :D

Another thing that helps Arrowhead is they have an entire parking lot dedicated to the stadiums. It can fit everyone that goes to the Chiefs game. They start partying there like 6 hours (or more for night games) before the game starts. So you get to bring you own alcohol and arent stuck buying at the staduim or bar. I dont know about most people, but for the 7 dollar beer I but at the Titans game is what I usually pay for a 12 pack of Keystone or Bush light.

Fair enough. Just from my experiance with NFL stadiums. Houston is not a top 5 in noise or nuttiness. However it is way up there in the niceness area. It is a beautiful stadium.
