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.

    • No one is asking him to be Tom Brady. They're just asking him to be as good if not better than Cooper Rush, Jimmy Garoppolo and Carson Wentz. We'd like Young to be better than Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield, but we're not even asking for that. No matter how you cut it he's going to be considered a bust for what was given up for him. He should be outpacing Cam Newton, Jake Delhomme and Kerry Collins game for game in their careers. He should at least be challenging the clutch level of Brady, Mahomes, Stafford, Goff, Garoppolo, Burrow, Hurts and Purdy. Remember that's based on the draft capital given up for Young, and not the extremely low bar Young has actually set for himself.
    • Even if you cherry pick Bryce post benching and ignore everything else and project it out over a full season….. there is no statistical  argument Kyler has ever been worse.   I’m no Murray fan as I agree he is more athlete than QB.   And I’m open to Bryce improving and support us continuing to develop him as this point.  
    • We need LBs--build the roster from the bottom up.  On offense, we have Coker who has been huge...if you fill your weaknesse without having to use free agent $$$ or draft picks--win win.
