:::I never consider that it was a literal "fall" as when he, miraculously fell, without injury, from orbit to the planet's surface. I thought "the fall of the Eleventh" referred to his death and regeneration. I've seen on other discussion threads that some are thinking "the silence must fall" is a literal moment of silence (no sound) rather than the fall of The Silence.

:::: Well it ''is'' a literal moment of silence. It's just one that doesn't end. "The Wedding of River Song" explained that the Silence want to kill the Doctor in order to ensure that the his silence falls at Trenzalore when the Question is asked. There's not really anything in the show to suggest that it refers to fall of the order itself; they're just named after what they hope to bring about. Additionally, I'm certain that the "fall of the eleventh" was specifically worded in such as way as to provoke assumptions of death/regeneration, but it could very well refer to something more simple than that. Now, granted, I can't really prove that second bit, but it does seem like something Moffat would do. He seems to have a penchant for misdirection, hence the very name of this episode.
