After the game, Manning put the blame on the stadium scoreboard operator:
"I have no problem with our fans, our fans are great...I've got a problem with our scoreboard operator. I've got to have a little talk with him....I'm not sure what he's doing. He's playing music and showing players dancing and getting the crowd fired up when we have the ball. I don't think we should be doing that...Our fans were great, our fans were loud, but the scoreboard operator, it wasn't his best night."
