What's your favorite NFL team?

I see a lot of posts about supporting different teams from childhood, family and other reasoning. Seems very spread out. Who do you pull for on Sundays?
Jags here even in the rough times.

But it's changed some over time. I pull for the Bengals and Titans mostly and then if there is a strong Clemson/Kentucky interest.... So the Jags are one I have followed pretty close... 6 total from Clemson/UK.
If I had to pick one I'd say the Bengals. Grew up liking the Bills and Chiefs.. Redskins some.

Same here. As a Yute, I pulled for the Los Angeles Rams in the NFl, and the New York Jets in the AFL. Roman Gabriel was QB for the Rams, and Joe Willie Namath was QB for the upstart Jets.
But, as the years wore on, and neither of those teams were really competitive, my interest in the NFL waned somewhat. It picked back up again when Clemson started putting players into the league with regularity. If I had to pick one now, it would probably be the Jags, because of Shatley, Trevor and ETN.
But, my two favorite ex-Clemson players are Mike Williams and Hunter Renfrow. Mikey because he grew up about 10 miles from where I was born and raised, and Renfrow just because he looks like a small accountant, but happens to be a Pro Bowl level professional footsball player.

Tbh I have been a big Tampa Bay fan since I was a kid. My favorite player back them was mike Alstott and Lynch. I loved that defense as a whole with Sapp, barber, Derrick, Lynch. They were some head busters and I fell in love with them. Ol Keyshawn Johnson too lol. Watched us win our first Super Bowl and went through a lot of rough years after that so I am not a bandwagon fan since Tom brady got here. Loved that Clemson won their first title in 36 years in Tampa’s stadium I was there and loved the pirate ship. I’m not as into NFL so I also like jags bc Trevor and stuff like that but Tampa is my team!

Always a redskins fan since the 70’s because of my dad. Still like them but don’t really care about NFL that much anymore. I live near Charlotte so I have tried to support the panthers but again really don’t care that much. I mostly just pull for the teams that former Clemson players are on.

Yea I def think McDaniel is the right guy but even read their were actually rumors of him being gone and I told my wife if that happens I’m done , I’ll get rid of everything I have lol IMO he’s done a great job under the qb circumstance and I don’t know if tua is the answer long term but have a feeling we will be in the Lamar Jackson talks … this team is set up to be contenders now so they can’t miss the window. It’s def been a long time since I was this excited watching the games which is fun again.

never have, so I have never had any skin in the game, and therefore, don't have a particular attachment to any team, and don't understand why anybody else in a similar situation would either. I have always been a Clemson fan because my father attended Clemson, and started going to Clemson games before I could walk. When I was a kid there really were no Clemson players in the NFL until Charlie Waters was drafted by the Cowboys, so I became a Cowboys fan. I had cousins who lived in Atlanta, and I went to a lot of Falcons games with them after they came to Atlanta, plus they had summer camp at Furman, which was withing walking/biking distance from my house, so I pulled for the Falcons then too. Now I just pull for teams who have prominent Clemson players.

I went from the 49ers till I moved moved to Denver in 2000. Eventually converted to a Broncos fan.
Still like the Broncos, but I lived in the Twin Cities for 10 plus years so pull for the Vikings also.
Then tend to pull for Clemson players.

I have been a Patriots fan for 47 years. Through the good times and the bad. Through the Raymond Berry days right up until Bill Belichick. I can remember my dad taking me to games as a young child at the old Schaffer Stadium in Foxborough, quite frankly the worst NFL stadium in the history of the league.

I've lived in a few places, and so my fave pro teams are the first pro cities I lived in that had a certain pro sport. So,
Ravens, ever since I lived in MD a quarter century ago (James Trapp has a ring with them). Last night brought back bad memories of that 99-yard return by WVU in the OB last night 
Otherwise, I pull for the team with the most Clemson players, so even though my Ravens lost, I'm happy for Tee, DJ, and Jackson.

Dallas growing up with Roger Staubach and gang but walked away when Tom Landry resigned. Was planning to pull for the Panthers but they never had a Clemson player so not a fan. Pulled for the Raiders with the Tigers on board but now a Jax fan.

Grew up a Bears fan. Then moved south and married a Georgia peach. So the compromise was she converted to Clemson and I gave up the Bears for the Falcons back in the 90s. She came out good, me, oh well. Falcons have cap money to spend and will be a force to reckon with soon.

Bills.. GM from around the NC area and from what I hear good people. That and they were drafting Clemson players back in the day.
I still pull for all the former players to play well regardless of their team. CW at Miami is my all time favorite Tiger.
Not sure why Reader went high school on us last night. Not sure why that bothers me but it does. Give me a few days and I will get past it.
