I've seen many games at both RFK and FedEx, and I believe that the architecture at RFK with its curved roof around the edge of the stadium allowed the sound to reverberate back. FedEx is completely open at the top, and no matter the number of fans, much of the noise is lost. I left games at RFK with my ears ringing for a day or two. Can't say that ever happened to me at FedEx, even after the Giants game on Xmas Eve 2005 that was essentially a playoff atmosphere.
As for this week's game against Detroit, it carries huge tiebreaker ramifications for a wild card. Winning conference games at home against other contenders is a must if the Skins are serious about playing in January.
