Home is just a mindset.
Home is where you make it.
Quoted from RWH:Wow kinda surprised the Browns are in the bottom, dog pound gets pretty rowdy!
To be fair the real Dawg Pound was Cleveland Stadium and it closed after 1995 season. Those fans were much closer to the field.
MLB provided every team with recorded fan noise. Each team can pretty much do what they want with it.
What if the NFL did the same and the home team can play it as loud as they want when the opponents have the ball.
I'm thinking the NFL has already thought of what teams may be doing and have made decisions on what will be allowed and what won't.
If they choose to allow fans, how do they decide which 15000 people get to watch live? The 'pumped in' noise seems to help add atmosphere when watching NHL playoffs.. but the digital fan pics in the nba are just weird! Don't like seeing that. The cut outs in MLB are dumb. Except Bernie! He made me laugh!

Cincinnati is going to offer seats to all season ticket holders first and then the general public.

Looks about right. How did they determine that? Win pct or point differential at home vs away? I'm a little surprised with the Raiders in the bottom 5.
Quoted from RWH:Ten times louder and playing under those indoor lighting systems effects receiver play. I've heard this said about domes and dome lights from both MLB and NFL players alike.
So how does the home team do better with these lights? I don’t get it. They are just more used to it? First I’ve heard of that.

What is that based on? Home winning percentage?

Ya, I’ve read that priority goes to long time season ticket holders...at 300-400 a seat! This ‘Covid’ bs has got to go, I wanna go to fn arrowhead 1 day!
Quoted from RWH:Cincinnati is going to offer seats to all season ticket holders first and then the general public.
Haven't the Cincinnati season ticket holders suffered enough.
Quoted from chuckwurt:What is that based on? Home winning percentage?
correct - naturally this list is 2 years old so there may be some slight changes.

Quoted from chuckwurt:So how does the home team do better with these lights? I don’t get it
They say that in a normal open stadium there are banks of lights outside of the playfield but in most dome stadiums the lights are more overhead and it's easy to lose the ball in them.
Theres no doubt that under normal circumstances home field advantage means something. Under these new conditions the only thing that really impacts the game is the weather and game time (i.e. west coast team playing at 10:00 am versus 1:00 PM)....I don't think turf means much because most teams have natural and turf practice facilities...eliminating most of the fans will have an impact
I think at least some of the 'dome' advantage had something to do with the crown (or lack-thereof in the case of a dome) on the field. I think most outdoor fields have improved drainage and were able to flatten that crown, making them flatter. There may have also been something to the grass, but outdoor fields are actually using a hybrid in most cases, and the artificial stuff have come a long way, again closing that gap.
Maybe there was something to domes being louder, but stadium designs have been altered to bring a lot of the noise back down to the field (SEA being the biggest example of this). I think Arrowhead and CenturyLink are the loudest stadiums, but maybe all else constant domes would be louder, I don't know.
Washington has had a home disadvantage the last few years, with visiting fans often outnumbering home fans and a general feeling of misery and depression.
Having an empty stadium will - no doubt - be an improvement this season.
Quoted from RWH:They say that in a normal open stadium there are banks of lights outside of the playfield but in most dome stadiums the lights are more overhead and it's easy to lose the ball in them.
But how is the home team immune to this? Aren’t both teams equally disadvantaged by it?
Quoted from chuckwurt:But how is the home team immune to this? Aren’t both teams equally disadvantaged by it?
Sort of.... The home team gets far more exposure to make adjustments. Think of it as visiting a friend that has Pinstadiums on his machine.... 
Quoted from chuckwurt:But how is the home team immune to this? Aren’t both teams equally disadvantaged by it?
I assume they get use to it or learn how to screen it out like in MLB.
Quoted from Jaybird815:Today should be considered a national holiday, I’m leaving work early!
I usually opt to go in late the following day.
Quoted from Deaconblooze:I usually opt to go in late the following day.
I’ll do that tomorrow and Monday! Being in the golf business, things are finally starting to slow down. It’s been our busiest year ever.
Quoted from Deaconblooze:I usually opt to go in late the following day.
Yeah me too, those doritos hangovers are killer!
Game Day!!! Might be a little weird with the amount of fans in the stadium, but we have football! Go Chiefs!
Quoted from CrazyLevi:What's the over/under on when Mitch gets pulled tonight?

Vegas always seems to know things us normies don't.
