Worst NFL fanbase - Page 3 - New England Patriots Forums

I voted for the Chargers. The Jets are getting a lot of votes, but I think that's because of the upcoming game this weekend which is causing a lot of people to vote based on emotion instead of rationality.

Anyway, based on what I heard about the Chargers-Pats game last season, my vote went to them. They sound like a bunch of punks. Not to mention their fanbase is so pathetic that they can't even sell out a home playoff game coming off of a 14-2 season and may also migrate over to San Antonio because of that.

i understand what you are getting at, but theres no way the giants or steelers fans should be on this list. they should be up there with the best fan bases

They are rabid in Jacksonville. The only problem is that there is not enough money around that city to support an NFL team. It was a big mistake putting a franchise there. Believe me, I lived there. People have to watch the games on TV because many of them can't afford to go to the games. Now it's looking like they won't be able to do that anymore.

I hate Jets fans. I find them (in general) to be arrogant and a lot of them are ignorant too. But does that make them the worst fans? Maybe the most annoying, but they are fairly passionate about a team that hasn't really won anything in a decade when they got to the AFC Chamipionship game and hasn't won it all in four decades.

When I consider the worst fan base, I look for the most dispassionate, apathetic fan base. That is why I voted for the Chargers. San Deigo is a pretty big city and the Chargers have been perenial AFC West title and Super Bowl contenders for four or five years now. And they are still looking at blackouts. That is pathetic to me. I can understand if your team consistently sucks and people not going to the games, but when all the media has you as one of the three teams most predicted to win the Super Bowl after the Pats and Steelers?!?

Chargers, and it's not even close.

Many of you are simply under the spell of Jet-week.

Good point on the Chargers. It seems that SoCal in general can't get up for any local sports team that isn't called the Lakers. Maybe this so-called East Coast bias in the media is a result of a higher percentage of fans in the east giving a crap.

I actually know a Jaguars fan in Virginia. I asked him why he liked them and he thought about it, but admitted he couldn't tell me.

I think you misunderstood. The Chargers' fans get up for the games just fine. They're very passionate. The problem is that they are mentally ill. No observed facts of reality will ever seep into their tiny pea-brains; beyond delusional.

Edit: I also forgot to add that they are the biggest collection of douchebags and raving lunatics of all times. Some of the most crass and unabashedly rude people you'll ever come across.

Interesting. That's my perspective of Dallas fans.

And the Chargers fans can only be getting up for their games so much if they can't even fill the seats while in the playoff hunt.
