The thing it does is it allows Kerney to start the play well before Heyer almost every time. The snap is predictable when you're going on rythm - it has to be. I would be curious as to how many of his 13 sacks were gotten at home and how many on the road. I don't buy Seattle's argument that the roof design "traps" the noise. A dome would "trap" all the noise and Seattle's stadium seems to be far louder than any of the domes. Also you have to consider what type of people live in Seattle. Are they the types to yell at the volume required to obtain that level of noise for three straight hours? I doubt it. It's not exactly the blue collar capitol of America. The crowd shots during the game are proof enough for me. Most of them didn't look like they were making any noise at all.
