NFL rules prohibit a team from encouraging crowd noise, but I think the jumbotron operators did an excellent job of finding a loophole in the rules. Never did they say "get loud" or "be quiet" but they figured out how to show Choice with a finger over his mouth and when they needed noise they showed Emmitt. It was the first time all year that I saw this. I was very impressed.
 
I wish we didn't have to do either and know when we should get loud or be quiet -.-

We need our special teams guy...who was it???? Gant that used to do that "shark" thing...;)
 
would they get in trouble if they showed Hulk Hogan...you know how he used to wind his arm the put his hand to his ear....cause I think the fans would get very loud.

They did say be quiet quite a lot, with I believe it was, "Quiet, Offense Working"

A lot of people still couldn't read though.

I'm still a bit miffed they weren't showing the Jets/Bengals game.
