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.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
