Franchise Rankings


Recommended Posts

Saw this survey at ESPN and didn't see it posted here.. It is going to rank the NFL franchises based on the input from the fans. There are quite a few questions, more than I expected at least. And they don't give you the results. But it will be interesting to see other fans wiegh in and see where we fit and how far off.

 

Personally, I was pretty generous toward the bills (I guess I am just too loyal of a fan) and tried my best to avoid giving marks that were really bad. Things like Commitment to winning, winning a championship in my lifetime, and things like that were hard to endorse though. Any of these questions stand out? For me the commitment to keeping the team in the city kinda hit me. I optimistically hope that the team stays for a long time but it is also a big questionmark for us. anyway, here is the link and stuff.

Then the link is on that page toward the bottom in the center under "must see nfl coverage" and there is a picture of jests fans.

 

Most of the questions:
