not doubting this team. We got mad heart man, we can score on this Defense and the Titans were a great matchup to really
frustrate our guys on Offense, I know Burrow is frustrated, think he might have even a bigger game than the last time we
played. The noise is the one thing I think Burrow has kind of brushed aside. There is a difference between the SEC games
and Arrowhead stadium as Chris Carter said on GMFB with Kay and company.
It will be loud like Burrow has never heard. The thing is I still don't think it phases him as Kay said.
I think the KC fans keep poking the bear with the comments about Arrowhead and the noise going to bother Burrow. Just more motivation as they challenge him on this, and as other fans, like the Cleveland fan noted in this thread, insist the Bengals had easy competition until now.
Yes, KC set out to set a record -- they were informed before the game that they would try to set a record, and they did. And certainly the crowd noise will have an effect: making it difficult to communicate on offense. But Burrow has played before crowds with 25,000 more fans than Arrowhead holds, and the LSU and Tennessee and Alabama stadiums get very loud. I think one reached over 135 decibels one time without trying to break a record and Tennessee had an eruption that showed up as an earthquake. The team will probably have difficulties. But these fans thinking Burrow will be intimidated, like some QB coming from Lackawanna Community College to play on the big stage, is just motivation.
