Ranking the 32 NFL Fanbases by How Annoying They Are Online

NFL fans love their teams. But some of them love their teams so much that they spend way too much time telling the rest of us all about it—especially online.

Whether it’s relentless meme posting, defending every bad call like their lives depend on it, or just generally being too loud after one decent win, these fanbases know how to work the internet. Here’s a completely objective, 100% scientific ranking of the most annoying NFL fanbases online—from the least aggravating to the ones that make you want to log off for good.

32. Miami Dolphins

They’ve got some Twitter heat, but it usually fizzles by midseason. More sunglasses emojis than actual smack talk.

31. New York Giants

They’re mostly just tired. When your last great moment involved Eli Manning, you tend to stay humble online.

30. Denver Broncos

Pretty chill for the most part, especially lately. They just want to talk about the past and stay cautiously optimistic about Bo Nix.

29. Minnesota Vikings

They have their moments, but mostly it’s just sadness disguised as optimism. The Skol chants rarely hit the same online.

28. Jacksonville Jaguars

Jags fans are like rare Pokémon—you know they exist, but you never actually see them unless the team’s randomly decent. Then they vanish again.

27. Cleveland Browns

They’ve been through a lot, so it’s hard to be mad at them. That said, they get real chirpy after one win in October.

26. Seattle Seahawks

The 12s used to be loud, but things have calmed down a bit. Still, you’ll never hear the end of that one Super Bowl win.

25. Green Bay Packers

Polite, but persistent. Expect cheese references, old Brett Favre takes, and a firm belief that Jordan Love is definitely the guy.

24. Las Vegas Raiders

They talk a big game, but even online, you can tell they’re clinging to the past. Still, the commitment to the bit is admirable.

23. Chicago Bears

Bears fans

Mostly harmless and self-deprecating these days. But now that they have Caleb Williams? Prepare for the “this is our year” posts on repeat.

22. New Orleans Saints

You’ll get the occasional “no one respects us” campaign. Plus, they still bring up that missed PI call like it happened yesterday.

21. Buffalo Bills

Bills Mafia is passionate, no doubt. But once they start talking tables and Super Bowl destiny, it gets loud fast.

20. Cincinnati Bengals

Recent success has them acting brand new. Still figuring out how to be an online powerhouse—and it shows.

19. Arizona Cardinals

Not overly loud, just kind of… there. But somehow every year you get one Cardinals fan who thinks they’re going 14-3.

18. Philadelphia Eagles

Yes, they just won the Super Bowl. No, they won’t ever let you forget it. Expect volume, memes, and a healthy dose of chaos.

17. New England Patriots

They’re still riding high off two decades of dominance. Even now, they’re convinced the dynasty isn’t over—it’s just napping.

16. Atlanta Falcons

They’re still recovering from 28–3 and trying to convince you Desmond Ridder was underrated. It’s a mix of delusion and digital therapy.

15. Pittsburgh Steelers

They bring that old-school football energy to the timeline. But the “six rings” argument wears thin after a while.

14. Detroit Lions

Lions fans have become way too comfortable acting like underdogs and favorites at the same time. It’s confusing and oddly aggressive.

13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

They came out of nowhere when Brady arrived, and now they act like they’ve always been relevant. Quieted down a bit lately, thankfully.

12. Houston Texans

Even when they collapse in the first round of the playoffs, they find a way to stir up debates nobody asked for. It’s impressive, in a chaotic way.

11. Kansas City Chiefs

There’s a new dynasty in town, and the fans let you know it every second of the day. Bonus points (or deductions) for the Swiftie crossover content.

10. Tennessee Titans

Titans Twitter is either incredibly petty or incredibly delusional—there is no in-between. And yes, they still think nobody respects them.

9. Carolina Panthers

It’s not the volume—it’s the weird optimism. You’d think they were 13-4 instead of fighting for five wins.

8. Baltimore Ravens

Confident, condescending, and completely convinced they’re smarter than your fanbase. Expect endless Lamar vs. everyone arguments.

7. Washington Commanders

Commanders fans operate with full delusion at all times. Even when the team’s bad, their takes are loud and unapologetically confident. And now that they’re good? Watch out. 

6. Los Angeles Rams

They came out swinging after their Super Bowl win and haven’t stopped flexing since, even though they haven’t been back to the big game since. You’d think they invented the forward pass the way they talk.

5. San Francisco 49ers

They love reminding you they have five rings—and that every QB on their roster is elite. And don’t even think about questioning their defense.

4. Los Angeles Chargers

Somehow have one of the smallest fanbases, yet the most elaborate excuses. There’s always a reason why it wasn’t really their fault.

3. Indianapolis Colts

They go from “we’re rebuilding” to “Super Bowl sleeper” in a single tweet. Also, the Andrew Luck nostalgia still lingers like a ghost.

The fans are everywhere, and so are the hot takes. Every year is “the year,” and they’re not shy about telling you.

Loud, emotional, and completely unhinged after every win—or loss. The Jets are never boring online, which is both a gift and a curse.
