With the 2025-26 NFL regular season approaching nearer by the day at U.S. betting sites, the team at Bookies.com wanted to see which NFL fanbases are in it for the long haul – not just for a dynasty team. We created a weighted scoring system that factors in average stadium attendance based on capacity, fan attendance at away games, total X followers and each team’s record from the 2022-24 regular season.

Which NFL Fanbases Scored Highest?  

Given the fact that you can probably find a “Terrible Towel” on the backside of the American flag that Neil Armstrong planted on the Moon in 1969, it’s likely of little surprise to learn that the Pittsburgh Steelers scored the most points in our NFL fanbase loyalty rankings this year.  

With a total score of 100 points (out of 100), the Steelers beat out other NFL favorites like the Denver Broncos (99 score), Baltimore Ravens (95 score) and the Buffalo Bills (94 score), while Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs were fifth overall with a total score of 93 points.  

Of the top five teams in our NFL fanbase loyalty rankings for 2025-26, the Ravens have the best odds of winning Super Bowl LX on bet365, sitting atop the worldwide betting brand’s board at +650 (alongside the Bills), while the Chiefs (+800) were fourth and the Broncos (+2200) were ranked in a tie for 10th leaguewide, alongside the Cincinnati Bengals and Minnesota Vikings. Conversely, the top five ranked fanbase with the longest Super Bowl LX odds on bet365 was the Steelers, who are listed at +4000 alongside the Chicago Bears.

Other Takeaways From 2025-26 NFL Fan Rankings 

The main takeaway outside of the NFL fanbase loyalty top five were the teams that scored the lowest in our survey, such as the dead-last Arizona Cardinals, who had a total score of 21 points, to finish 20 points behind the next closest franchise (that being the Los Angeles Rams, with 41 points).  

Ahead of Arizona and L.A., you’ll find the Bears in 30th position with a total score of 42 points, while the Washington Commanders (43 points), Atlanta Falcons (45 points) and Carolina Panthers (46 points) were all ranked between 27th and 29th in the 32-team league.  

While the Cardinals, Commanders, Falcons and Panthers place on the NFL loyalty list is likely of little surprise, given the lack of regular season and postseason success by those squads during the period in question (with Washington’s surprise NFC Championship Game run in 2024-25 being the exception), the Rams are a bit of an anomaly.  

That’s because L.A. has a Super Bowl title to their name this decade (winning it all in 2021) and have the seventh best Super Bowl LX odds on bet365, at +2000, but that’s not enough to help push them higher than 31st in the NFL.  

What doesn’t help the Rams is the fact that the club finished 19th leaguewide in total attendance last year (at 1,125,537), with the team’s road attendance figure of 540,273 ranking 28th leaguewide, ultimately tanking their standing leaguewide.  

Conversely, the league-leading Steelers were 20th leaguewide in terms of total attendance last year, at 1,151,407, with the 10th highest road attendance number NFL-wide, at 616,362, helping to explain why L.A. lagged so far behind the NFL’s leader in fan loyalty this football season.
