Here is a quote from a Post article from when FedEx first opened...

Afterward, many current Redskins were equally effusive about playing here for the first time, particularly about the noise level, which they insisted was equal to if not better than the decibel level at RFK.

"I felt like I was at LSU again," said defensive tackle Marc Boutte.
Go back to the Giants and Dallas games in '05. I guarantee those games were louder than any RFK game.
