Whenever something different happens in sports, there are always commentators, journalists and radio personalities that try to explain the reasons why those things happened. Oftentimes their reasonings and explanations are interesting and useful. But many times, the reasoning is due to complete randomness. No one ever says that.

Do they think the fan noise wasn't a factor in previous years? Is it brand new to this year? Is traveling tougher now on chartered flights this year than it was in 1995?

In this case in the NFL, the home teams are just rolling the dice better this year. No need to get excited on a sample size of 100 games that only made a small deviation from the expectation.

Yep, agree 100%.
