I always liked Green Bay, but that was mainly due to Favre. I would like Atlanta, but I do not want to feel the despair that is being a falcons or braves fan.

Have to agree with Robot about Saints. Always hope they make it.

I love the NFL but really don't care to root for anyone. Just like to see former players do good.

Bears fan.

But I hate watching them most of the time because I can't stand Cutler.

Other than that, I pull for the players on my fantasy team and former Alabama players. And then sometimes I just like other players and I pull for them.

Bama fans do not care about the NFL.

Been a fan of the old Oakland Raiders since I was a kid. Love what Reggie McKenzie has done in these past few drafts. Getting us out of cap purgatory, laying the foundation, then building on it. Hoping Del Rio can break the playoff drought

That's crazy. I would have thought there would be more Falcon fans than anything in AL. Mobile definitely is Saints territory, but I would have thought Birmingham would be more Falcons than anything.

I don't believe this to be true. Most I think just follow Alabama players and just honestly just watch it because its football.

Saints and Bama fan since I was a kid. Don't care that Julio plays for the Falcons, I still want them to lose every single game.

Saints are my NFL team. I'm currently on my second stint in New Orleans.

I also just enjoy watching NFL in general and root for former Auburn players.

Like a few others, I am surprised by that map showing the state of Alabama as Saints country. I have lived in a few different cities in Alabama and while the popularity of college fb dominates NFL, the people that were NFL fans seemed more Falcons except in the southwest corner/Gulf area of the state where Saints were more popular.

For anyone who lives in Birmingham what team is most popular there? I'd guess either Falcons or maybe Titans.

None, we don't have an NFL team so I cant find allegiance to anyone. I watch the NFL but have never watched a regular season game that I had vested interest in. The Falcons have tried to get Bama residents to become fans as the Hawks and Braves have. The Hawks used to come set up at the Galleria every year and put on a PR dog and pony for a couple days.
