NFL Fan Base Rankings Cowboys beat out S

With the NFL season le s than a month away, the NFL writers here at CBSSports.com thought it was the perfect time to start ranking things, and in an effort to get every NFL fan base to hate us equally, we decided to rank all 32 fan bases. The good news is that, for once, fans aren't going to have anything to complain about. The bad news is that the Jonathan Taylor Jersey other 31 fan bases probably aren't going to be happy with our rankings. NFL preseason Of course, when you're not happy with something, you need someone to complain to, so let me introduce the five panelists who voted in our fan rankings (aka, the people you should vent to after you notice how low your team's fan base is ranked). The fan rankings were voted on by five of our writers here at CBSSports.com: Will Brinson, Ryan Wilson, John Breech, Jared Dubin and Sean Wagner-McGough. If you want to yell at any of them, feel free to take your complaints to Twitter. For instance, if you want to know why Brinson hates fans, you can ask him on (Brinson ranked the Dolphins as the second-worst fan base in the NFL).The Dolphins are terrible. Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) On the other hand, maybe you want to know why Wilson ranked fans as the sixth-worst fan base. Feel free to ask . Do the have the worst fan base in football? Wagner-McGough says yes. Send , Chargers fans. Should fans be ranked in the bottom 10? Dubin says yes, and was the only panelist who didn't rank Philly's fans in the top 10 overall. He ranked them 23rd. Eagles fans, you can yell . fans got no respect from Breech, who ranked them 25th overall. If any Arizona fans use the internet, feel free to . Anyway, the rankings were tabulated by averaging all five votes for each team, and just so you know who to yell at, you'll find that each team's lowest vote and highest vote are listed below. As a bonus, we've also thrown in a celebrity fan from each team because celebrities are fun. 1. Dallas Cowboys No, Jerry Jones didn't write us a gigantic check, the Cowboys are actually No. 1 on this list. That's right America, America's Team has America's best fan base, which is a good thing Mike Strachan Jersey for the Cowboys, because no one else in the country seems to like the Cowboys or their fans. As a matter of fact, the Cowboys were in a recent poll. Although it's easy to bash Cowboys fans -- and people do it all the time -- the truth is, it's pretty easy to make the argument that they're the best fan base in football. Despite the fact that Jones has been putting together completely average teams for most of the past 20 years, fans haven't been jumping off the bandwagon. Not only did the Cowboys lead the NFL in attendance last year with an average of over 91,000 people per game, but their merchandise is also popular: Four of the in the NFL between March 2016 and May 2016 were Cowboys players. The best thing about all Cowboys fans is that they basically have two things in common: They'll defend Romo until death and they'll argue until the end of time that Dez caught it.

Depending on who you ask, Patriots fans are either in football or the best fans on earth. Based on our voting, our panel is definitely leaning toward option No. 2.
