Yep another poll : CBS ranks the fanbase:

NFL Fan Base Rankings: Cowboys beat out Steelers, Packers fans for top spot

 

[cdumler7]

These things always seem laughable. Such as Raiders at 6. They have had trouble selling out their stadium for years now. In fact they have had a bottom-5 in the league percentage of seats sold per game for quite a few years. So to say they have the 6th best fans when they can't even get them to come to the game just doesn't make much sense. Yes ticket sales are up for this upcoming season but that doesn't erase years of fans just not caring or wanting to go to games.

I pretty much stopped when I saw that.

I stopped after "NFL Fan Base Rankings".

Cowgirls number 1, clearly this is based on "bandwagon fans" !

They at least have some measurables that give them some reasons to be at least in the top-10. Ticket sales, fanbase size, merchandise sales have been high for years, viewership when games are on tv. All of them have been top-10. Not so much for the Raiders. Like I said I stopped reading after that because of all the lists I have seen for this topic it seems like one just made up with no reasons to back up their choices.

Apparently, Chiefs fans are already tired of watching Alex Smith throw check down passes.

Now that's a fiercely hot take.

another list to wipe your ass with IMO, but some comments since I'm bored:


Amazing how Dallas fans are bandwagon fans and at the same time "living in the past" and "haven't won anything in decades". How does that work exactly
The best part about these polls to me is how they burn up the Cowboy haters!!!

You want to talk crazy, how the Hell are the Eagles in the top 10? Probably about the worst fans in the league. Anything even in the top top 20 is just insane. i'd say 28, right in front of redskin fans

 

[Voltaire26]

The Lions at number 24 is a joke ... the Lions sell out Ford Field every weekend and the bars are full when the Lions play. We are some pretty damn loyal fans ... we need a Super Bowl in Detroit!!!!

15 playoff victories in 20 years. I consider myself a very lucky football fan (though I did suffer through 12 years without a team).

why would you jump on the band wagon of a losing team ?

but the Raiders are moving up in the world!

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

Pfft

Patriots were literally kicked out of the city of Boston because they sucked and no one cared about them

Now they are a 'Great Fanbase'


GTFO

 

[Broncos6482]

Broncos have the longest sellout streak in the NFL, and it goes all the way back to when the team was a doormat. The waiting list for season tickets is several decades long. And they're ranked 7th.

I'm diminishing the accomplishment, but I can sort of see why:

It's crazy. It's like people completely forget that the Cowboys have been irrelevant for 20 years and they start hating again.
