Pretty good but sucky teams really don't have fairweather fans. The Cowboys should be up there.

[Mage]

Why would anybody want to become a Detroit Lions fan?

I really, really doubt they have any bandwagon fans.

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

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.

[The Saltman]

its an automatic fail as london says...not just the cowboys ommission but the fact that this was a fan generated topic from the bleacherreport.

Where the fug are the Steelers?? I guess the writer is a fairweather fan of them and left them out.

[tarheelblue89]

This list makes no sense.

[Johnny Rockets]

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.

[blackcatgrowl]

This list makes no sense.

Agreed. Mostly.

Calling oneself a "Detriot Lions Fan" takes some balls. You can't be called fairweather if you've worn any Lions shirts, hats, anything after 0-16.

Now... the Saints fans... yeah... very fairweather.

[necroplasm]

This list makes no sense.

Yeah, why the hell is the Browns on this list. They are the most loyal.

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.

[Henne Given Sunday]

dolphins havent won a superbowl since 73...........we havent been since 84.......we're never blacked out....huge support always.....but we are fairweather cause our favorite team came one lucky TD pass in OT away from losing every single game in a season?

we deserved to show frustration. cam cameron was a fuging terrible head coach. ted ginn 9th overall over revis and patrick willis? really?!?!?!?

whata fugin joke. fug this guy who wrote it...

[TheSaint]

I went to several games in the Superdome the year BEFORE Katrina...the stands werent empty. I dont ever, ever remember the stands being empty.

Id say NO has some of the most loyal fans ever...all things considered.

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.
