10 Of The Best And Worst Fans Of The NFL

Fans of the National Football League (NFL) are constantly fighting over who has the best fan base. However, what should this be based on?

Some people think it should be ranked on how many fans a team has, but just because they have a bunch of band-wagoners does not make them the best.

Some think it should have to do with how much merchandise or tickets are sold; although both of these thing are great, in my opinion, the best fans are loyal fans who do no turn their back on their team just because they're having a losing season. The following list I've composed is based mostly on loyalty.

So lets get to it! Who will claim the number one fan spot, and who are the worst fans in the NFL? Lets find out!

The Worst Fans

5. The Patriots

The fans of the Patriots aren't necessarily bad -- they actually have a pretty decent sized fan-base, but they are so spoiled! The fans have no idea what it's like to root for a losing team (in recent years at least).

The patriots make it to the play-offs almost every year -- the last time they were not in the play-offs was 2008. They have five total super bowl wins, and have been nine times. Give somebody else a chance for once!

4. The Chargers

First off, they lost to the 2016 defeated Browns, which is just sad -- I think they lost a few fans then. Also, as the move to LA demonstrated, any team who constantly moves loses fans.

3. The Rams

Same as the Chargers, any team who constantly moves ruins the fan base.

2. The Jaguars

Jacksonville has had multiple blackouts on local television to make up for the times when they failed to sell enough tickets. Since then, the NFL has lowered their standard, so Jaguars have not had any blackouts in recent years. Also, the Jaguars only have 229,000 followers on Twitter, which is the least of all the NFL teams.

1. The Cowboys

The Cowboys have the worst fans! They love them when they are winning, but the second a game is lost they turn on the team. The people that slam on the cowboys most are their own fans! They should try being loyal to their team for a change!

The Best Fans

5. The Seahawks

Seattle held the record for the loudest stadium for a moment in 2013, reaching 137.6 decibels -- those are some excited fans!

4. The Steelers

Even though the Steelers are probably just as spoiled as the Patriots, they are extremely popular and have the best traveling fans in the NFL.

3. The Browns

The Browns have almost never been good (in recent years). The last time they were in the play-offs was in 2002, and they lost in the first round. These fans are dedicated, die-hard fans! It sucks rooting for a team that never wins, and the Browns fans do not know what it's like to have a winning team!

2. The Chiefs

I may be a little biased here because I am a Chief's fan, but even during difficult years where we barely won any games, the Chiefs still sold out almost every game. The Chiefs fans also currently hold the record for the loudest stadium!

1. The Packers

The Green Bay Packers are ranked first in hometown crowd ranking, social media ranking, and stadium attendance. They are the only community-owned football team in the NFL (which is pretty cool if you ask me). The Packers are also in the top five for TV audience (coming in at number two) and merchandise. Of course, their stadium is referred to as the "frozen tundra," so it’s a lot easier to sell a ton of Packer’s gear when people have to wear multiple layersjust to stay decently warm.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
