And this is something I can back him on.

The Cowboys have had a difficult time establishing a homefield advantage at AT&T Stadium over the years, but they finished 7-1 at home in 2018, which is a positive heading into Saturday’s wild card game against Seattle. Dak Prescott said he expects an “epic environment,” inside the stadium but he also has a request: "I can only just think back to two years ago, obviously my rookie year, playing the Packers and just how crazy that atmosphere was. Going down early like we did but then being able to come back and have that game be close right there at the end, and just remembering the crowd and everyone going crazy. I just hope when I signal for everyone to be quiet that they be quiet this game, knowing how important it is for us to communicate. Hopefully the fans are working well with us but then when we’re on defense, showing how loud they can be.”

Good luck...been to the stadium many times..rarely does it get up for games..granted, 2009 playoff game vs Philly was pretty good..

Dak is concerned with the crowd quieting down when he signals for it. It seems this is especially a struggle for Dallas fans. Am I being naive and this is a league wide thing or are the fans at AT&T particularly clueless when it comes to being loud while the home team is operating on offense?
 
I was at that 2016 playoff game and it was electric. I literally had an entire section on their feet as I (in my drunken state) went up and down the stairs yelling “We’re not done. Finish the fight. Finish the fight.”

Ughhh that was a difficult loss to swallow. The Dez catch, while i was also in attendance, didn’t burn all that much because I knew we only lost on a blown call. But to see Rodgers convert 3rd and 20 and then Crosby to hit a 49er twice...
 
Yeah, he's not saying people aren't getting loud, it's that they aren't being quite when we are on offense. Some people just don't know the game. I was at a college game once and the coach had to go talk to the guy leading the band because he was trying to get people to make noise when we were on offense.

Nope. It's our fans. They are quiet until you beg them to get loud and then it's 60 minutes of noise.
 
Night game on a Saturday for a Cowboys playoff game. Going to be a lot of liquored up fans in there, which will be a good thing.

Nah I don't get the impression we are worse than other teams here
 
In one of the games recently, it might have been the Eagles game, we're in the huddle and every one of our players is flapping his arms trying to quiet our own crowd.

It's embarrassing. This isn't rocket science.

Happens everywhere

:popcorn: This is a great idea .
 
That's just a part of playing for Dallas, Dak. Tony could never get the crowd to cheer on que, maybe Dak can.
Yea I was gonna say....haven't we had the same problem for a long time?

I'm pretty sure when I went to the stadium when it opened, they had instructions telling fans to be quiet. I don't think that's entirely unique, though.

See I thought we were just mocking that stupid fly eagles fly with the flapping. My bad
