1. Lambeau Field (Packers)

2. Heinz Field (Steelers)

3. Qwest Field (Seahawks)

4. Arrowhead Stadium (Chiefs)

5. Soldier Field (Bears)

6. Superdome (Saints)

7. Gillette Stadium (Patriots)

8. Metrodome (Vikings)

9. Lincoln Financial Field (Eagles)

10. Oakland Coliseum (Raiders)

What do you guys think, if we were a consistent power would we crack the list? I have been in very loud Bank of America Stadiums during playoff/night games especially and when we are good we normally fill it every game. I think we could get better than the Raiders.

for a couple years we were pretty good at home.

BoA isn't really known for having all that tough of an atmosphere to opposing teams. fans are far too nice, which is probably a good thing considering how many seats are filled by fans of other teams.

packers, steelers and bears were also on a worst surfaces list. so it isn't just about the noise when a team goes visits those stadiums.
True, true. I'm guessing noise has the biggest impact by a wide margin though. I think we're easily top 15 when we're a good team.

opposing teams literally laughed at BoA stadium last year. i think it was the vikings game where multiple players said there was more purple in the stands than anything else. carolina will never come close to cracking a top ten list of most difficult places to play in the NFL. even if we win consecutive super bowls with cam, i think we'll always have a wine and cheese reputation.

Bills should be on that list.

thats just because you don't know what country you are going to be in. drive up to the stadium and you find out that they are playing in canada that day. it can be pretty confusing.

it was the ravens and it was an extra home game for them.

really embarrassing.

of all the horrible games last year, that had to be the one that effected richardson the most and why i don't think they are going to be messing around when it comes to bringing in talent this year.

me thrice!

but hell when you get an all inclusive bus ride, hotel room downtown and a ticket all for like 200 a person can you blame them for filling our stadium? I dont think they would have had half the turn out if Charlotte wasn't licking their assholes to get them down here...

To this day, 2005 against the Patriots is one of the loudest regular season NFL games I have ever been to. I've been to like 20 games in Miami, a few in Jacksonville, and Soldier Field, so my sample size is small, but BofA was loud as sh*t that day.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
