The Buffalo Bills may have Cheated In Loss to Patriots 

9/21/2015

 
Picture
The NFL sent out a memo to teams last month about new stadium noise policies. The league said,"  The home team is permitted to play audio while the visiting team is on offense and the play clock is running. The audio must cease by the time the play clock reaches 20 seconds, or when the visiting team's offense reaches the line of scrimmage, whichever occurs first. Pursuant to this policy, the visiting team's offense is considered being at the line of scrimmage when the center touches the ball." 
OK, So home teams are not allowed to blare music when visiting teams are in the process of snapping the ball. That would be an unfair advantage, wouldn't it? 
YES. The Patriots ran an up-tempo offense against the Bills throughout the game. On the Patriots first offensive series they had to call a timeout because the stadium noise was so loud that Brady couldn't communicate with his receivers. 
FYI: The Bills have train horn at Ralph Wilson Stadium. A train horn is extremely loud and annoying, especially during a game. 
The Bills were playing the train horn throughout the game, especially when the Patriots had the ball. That would be considered cheating. 
Whatever the verdict is, the Patriots do not have to complain. The NFL will receive the Bills video board paired with the PA system audio by Wednesday and they will be able to figure if the Bills went too far and broke the rules. 
The Bills could be fined and docked a draft pick for their actions............

It was the pats way of taking the "12th man" and benching him so to speak and it worked by kping the bills in a base D much of the time thus Quiet in the crowd noise and also The blaring train horn

I agree that the Train horn is unnecessary and a pain in the head. Maybe they should use it for a TD or scoring only. I personally can't stand it.
