Let’s be real—every NFL fan thinks their team is the best, even when they’re objectively not. But some teams and their fanbases take it further and ooze pure, unfiltered arrogance from Week 1 through Wild Card weekend (and beyond).
Whether it’s because of past success, current hype, or just blind confidence, certain franchises carry themselves as the world revolves around them. So here it is—every NFL team, ranked from the most humble to the most head-in-the-clouds arrogant.
32. Carolina Panthers
Panthers fans aren’t doing much chest-puffing these days. They’re mostly just hoping things eventually stabilize.
31. Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals fans have been through it lately, and their confidence is at an all-time low. Arrogance is not on the menu.
30. Atlanta Falcons
Falcons fans are still recovering from that Super Bowl. They keep things humble because, well, they have to.
29. Indianapolis Colts
Colts fans are fairly even-keeled these days. The glory years feel far away, and they’re mostly just trying to avoid drama.
28. Tennessee Titans
Titans fans have been humbled in recent years. Now, they have no room to brag with the first pick in the 2025 NFL draft.
27. Houston Texans
Texans fans are just out here trying to enjoy CJ Stroud. There is no arrogance, just cautious optimism and a lot of patience.
26. Washington Commanders
Commanders fans want to believe, but they’re not out here talking like they’re Super Bowl favorites. The energy is cautious and grounded.
25. Jacksonville Jaguars
Jags fans have some hope, but they’re not cocky—just happy to be invited to the playoff conversation. The arrogance meter is still pretty low.
24. New York Giants
Giants fans can get loud, but it’s more defensive than arrogant. They’ve got the rings, but it’s been a rollercoaster lately.
23. Chicago Bears
Bears fans talk tough, but their swagger is primarily nostalgic. They believe in their team but know chaos is always just one snap away.
22. Minnesota Vikings
Vikings fans are passionate but rarely arrogant. They’ve seen too many heartbreaks to get too cocky about anything.
21. Detroit Lions
Lions fans have been riding high lately, but their energy is more joyful than arrogant. They’re loud right now, but they’ve earned a little celebration.
20. New York Jets
Jets fans are confident every offseason and humbled by Week 3. The arrogance is seasonal and fleeting.
19. Cleveland Browns
Browns fans carry a weird mix of pride and paranoia. There’s confidence, but it’s laced with decades of scars.
18. Seattle Seahawks
Seahawks fans know how to flex when things are going well, but they don’t usually take it too far. There’s swagger, but it’s not overwhelming.
17. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Bucs fans were insufferable during the Brady years, but things have quieted down. There’s still some lingering Super Bowl pride, though.
16. Las Vegas Raiders
Raiders fans talk big, no matter what the record says. At this point, it’s part of the brand—swagger first, questions later.
15. New Orleans Saints
Saints fans still carry themselves like they’re always in the mix. They’ve got the swagger of a perennial contender, even when the team is shaky.
14. Denver Broncos
Broncos fans swing between full-blown confidence and existential dread. But when they believe, they believe.
13. Pittsburgh Steelers
Steelers fans bring that “we’re a legacy franchise” energy every season. Even in a down year, they talk like they’ve got six rings in their back pocket—which they do.
12. Los Angeles Rams
Rams fans found a new level of confidence after their Super Bowl win. It’s not overwhelming, but it grew overnight.
11. Miami Dolphins
Dolphins fans get loud every summer, believing this is the year everything clicks — that offseason confidence is off the charts.
10. Buffalo Bills
Bills fans are loyal and intense, believing their time has come. Even when things go sideways, the confidence doesn’t waver much.
9. Los Angeles Chargers
Chargers fans act like the team should be undefeated every season. They’ve got elite player confidence without the playoff résumé to match.
8. Baltimore Ravens
Ravens fans are intense and fully invested in their culture of toughness and winning. They take their franchise seriously, and this shows in their quiet arrogance.
7. Green Bay Packers
Packers fans walk around with “we’re better than you” energy, especially when talking quarterbacks. Even in transition years, the confidence never dips too low.
6. Cincinnati Bengals
Bengals fans have gone from lovable underdogs to full-on trash talkers. They believe they’ve arrived and will ensure you know it.
5. Kansas City Chiefs
Chiefs fans have earned the right to be confident, but their confidence is turning into “we run the league” energy. Humble beginnings, very not-humble present.
4. San Francisco 49ers
Niners fans talk like the Lombardi Trophy lives rent-free in Santa Clara. Even if the season’s a mess, they’ll still tell you their roster is the best in football.
3. Dallas Cowboys
Cowboys fans have been confident since the ’90s and don’t plan on stopping anytime soon. Every year is “their year,” and they’ll defend that belief with their chest.
