Any NFL fans here on AF? Whats your favorite team?

I love football and have been a fan since I was a kid. When the Dallas Texans were moved to Kansas City in the early sixties, I instantly became a huge fan. They have been under the same family ownership since coming to KC and are known as the Chiefs. They have seen some good years and many bad years in their history but dropping the team would be football sacrilege.
A fan is a fan and that just can't be changed. The last decade or so I've also rooted for the Pittsburg Steelers. I had room to root for a second team and the Steelers were a better team for most of that decade. Even though I consider myself a Steeler fan, I always root for the Chiefs if they should play against one another. This year both teams are doing well and I suspect they will see each other in post season.
i would not call it donkey kicking, but they won. it was a very close game.
currently watching my Chargers beating the lowly Broncos.....who i hate.....mainly because i hated Elway back in the day.
the rookie Herbert looks amazing!!!!!!!
i have him on my fantasy. i played him over Brady who i hated to draft him, but he was the best QB available at the time. i picked up Herbert on waivers and very glad i did.
not to mention that a few of my freinds are from Colorado and thus are Broncos fans......i am loving rubbing it in right now.
I'm a big football fan since I was a kid.
But growing up in the Detroit area makes you bitter. So my teams growing up where : Pittsburgh Steelers with Bradshaw, Oakland Raiders with Kenny Stabler, San Francisco with Joe Montana, and New England with Brady.
And now I'm in left field just rooting for the underdog every season. Ugh....
I've been a homer since I was a kid, so yes, I was a fan during the 1-15 year and the near relocation to St. Louis or Hartford. That said, I'm a Pat's fan. And we are probably going into another decade of irrelevance. If your team gets good (looking at @olbriar and the Chiefs) enjoy it while you can.
You might consider revisiting the game some time. It has changed a lot in the last 40 years. You might find that the changes to the game make it more entertaining. Then again, you might be appalled at the changes. The athletes as a whole are superior to what you witnessed. Rules have been changed to make it safer and definitely favor the offensive side of the game. The trade off for higher scoring games is many plays are reviewed which slows the viewing experience. It also allows for far greater breaks in the action (more commercials) It would be interesting to hear your take on the game after being absent for so long.Used to be a Redskins fan in the 80s. Left football and never came back.
if you follow the Chargers, you will not have been to surprised. 5 times this season they have blown leads and lose the game. yesterdays game was the biggest blown lead of the season at 21 points. we cannot put a solid full game of defense. i really hope that they make a change at the defense coordinator position.The surprise of the day was Denver coming back on LA... didn't see that happening. Saints and Bears had a fun game to watch as well. Looks like Dallas is losing another. Your Pats are still real. A few pieces and they will be kicking patoot again. You have one of the most respected coaches in the business. They won't be down long.

yeah that sucks what happened to Prescott. he was my qb in one of my fantasy teams.....luckily i picked up Herbert. i had the tight end in another league and dropped him cuz they were not using him in the passing game. i'll keep an eye out though if Dalton can come back and play well.I am a Dallas Cowboys fan, so i'm not too happy this season![]()
oh that sucks all together!!!!!!Well they just put Dalton on reserves / Covid - 19 list, so he won't be playing Sunday again.
What's everyone's thoughts on the 16 team playoff proposal? I think it stinks and hope it doesn't come into play. It does away with the advantage of being on top and earning a bye week.
