NJ.Bet recently set out to determine which NFL teams have the most bandwagon fans. Here's how they did it: "In order to find out, NJ.Bet, an online casino and betting offers site, conducted a nationwide survey of NFL fans who regularly watch football and asked them their opinions on bandwagon fan behavior."

According to respondents, there are several ways to spot a bandwagon NFL fan, including only supporting successful franchises (57%), not supporting any team until the playoffs (43%), tuning out of the game when the team is losing (34%), having more than one favorite team (32%) as well as not knowing the team’s players by name (27%). 

The Green Bay Packers rank No. 6 for having the most fair-weather fandom, and responders said fans only support the team because of high-profile players like Aaron Rodgers. In fact, Rodgers ranked No. 3 for quarterbacks who have the largest bandwagon following in the league. Tom Brady took the top spot.

Here's the top ten NFL teams with the most bandwagon fans:

  1. Dallas Cowboys
  2. New England Patriots
  3. Kansas City Chiefs
  4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
  5. Los Angeles Rams
  6. Green Bay Packers
  7. San Francisco 49ers
  8. Philadelphia Eagles
  9. Las Vegas Raiders
  10. Cincinnati Bengals
