It's such a difference this season without the noise and the fans.

What a different experience for the fans and the players.

I know the players are "professionals" but it must feel more like a scrimmage or practice at the beginning of each game this season. It makes it much harder to get ready to play, get excited.

In fact, I think it's harder this season to WIN. More than any other season. You could feel it in Baseball, then in Basketball and now in Football. The players must really rely so much more on each other to get mentally ready for the games.
