Apparently, we were too loud for them on defense. They could not communicate right.

Funny, I thought the defense wanted the crowd to be loud.:wow:
Apparently, we were too loud for them on defense. They could not communicate right.
According to players on that side of the ball, however, the combination of noise and a lack of attention to detail made on-field communication a major challenge. Even at least one offensive player told The Telegraph he had heard rumblings that plays weren’t being relayed properly.
“There were little miscommunications mostly from the fact that some people were saying they weren’t hearing the calls and some people said they weren’t getting them,” linebacker, and primary defensive play-caller Brad Jefferson said. “So they’ve just got to tune in and make the calls and hear the calls.”
Safety Jerrard Tarrant, the player in charge of calling plays in the defensive backfield agreed with Jefferson’s sentiments, saying that the miscues led to mishaps during play.
“Everybody wasn’t communicating together on the same page. And if everybody isn’t on the same page then some assignment is going to get blown, someone’s going to go uncovered or a gap isn’t going to get filled,” Tarrant said.
He added that players may not hear calls because they get “caught in the moment, the crowd is getting loud, and sometimes you forget to say something or you forget to look around for the signal.”
