NFL top 10 Fairweather Fanbases

The Browns and Eagles have some of the most insanely devoted fans in the entire league, but they earn the "fairweather" designation because they're infamously rough on their team and players when they suck apparently. Every metric shows that both franchises pack their stadiums no matter how bad they suck, and there's been a lot of suck for Browns fans to choke down since that franchise came back into existence.

Also no Cowboys (moreso their fans outside of Texas) or Falcons on that list = automatic fail.

Maybe the next time they want to put a picture of Eagle fans in one of their articles they should consider using an actual picture of Eagle fans and not Jet fans.

This list makes no sense to me either.....I guess some people have a different definition of "fairweather fans" than I do.

There's a big difference in having bandwagon fans and having a fairweather fanbase. The Steelers have a lot of bandwagon fans, but actual Steeler fans are some of the most rabid fans out there. Atlanta on the other hand is one of the worst sports cities in America.

Yea ok, when they are winning maybe. Ive seen Steeler fans hog up bars in TN. If they arent looking to good the "fans" will claim the dont get to keep up with them very much. Ive also noticed most "fans" dont even know that the team is in the playoffs until they reach the superbowl.

    • People really need to stop placing Dan Morgan on some kind of infallible pedestal. He is absolutely in lockstop with Tepper regarding Bryce and has been all along. As far as the team being okay with 185 passing yards per game. We better have a proven monster RB in our backfield then. Presently that guy is not on the roster. Chuba has one outlier season so far and the other guys have proven nothing. Not what you would call a great recipe. The only thing we can hope at this juncture is that the highest paid OL in the league for the second year in a row elevates their play from last season and opens up some massive holes even our RB's can get through. But it still doesn't resolve the issue of predictability. With no viable passing game it is much easier to shut down any run game. No defenses are scared of Bryce's arm. It is what it is.
    • i lived in Atlanta from 84'to 92' & back then it was indeed a very different time without the internet & access to information 24/7. shortly after i moved back home to western NC around 93' or 94' the Carolina Panthers were awarded an NfL franchise & began their inaugural season in 95' so ike you i have seen the Carolina Panthers, ,the NFL ,technology, fans all evolve over the many a moon & years now some for the better & others not so ...just saying 
    • I wouldn't even bet on us winning the NFC South. All four teams had excellent Drafts.
