The Dallas Cowboys may be a few years from their last Super Bowl, but they are the favorite football team among adults who follow professional football, rising one spot since last year. Since this survey began in 1998, the Cowboys have always been in one of the top four positions, usually in the top two.
The Indianapolis Colts have continued their steady rise in the rankings and move up one spot, from No. 3 last year to No 2 this year. In 1999, the Colts were tied for No. 27 and have moved up each year since. Rounding out the top five are the Pittsburgh Steelers (No. 3, dropping from No. 1 last year), the Green Bay Packers (remaining at No. 4) and the Chicago Bears (No. 5, moving up one spot). Jacksonville was the least popular NFL franchise for the third straight year.

Except of course for Terry Bradshaw. ONLY QB to win four Super Bowls.
I thought bandwagon fans just liked whoever won the last championship. Exceptions are those fans who live in the city of a team.
You guys don't have Tom Brady.
GO TEXANS!!!
Terry seems like a nice guy but he's not even in the top five.
LOL...I guess it is a good sign they are missing...
I remember how I HATED the Dallas Cowboys (having been a Redskins fan back in the day when I lived in that area...)
It took me a long, long time before I could admit to myself that Roger Staubach wasn’t just a grass sliding pussy, and was in fact, a very good quarterback. How I hated him. And all of them. Now that I am older, I can appreciate the foes of my team as they play them...:)
Getting older DOES have its benefits...I was so emotionally caught up in pro football as a young fan, I ate, breathed and slept it. In the Navy, when my ship was at sea on Sundays, I would pace back and forth for hours waiting for the radio room to post the scores.
I like it better this way...
Your entitled to your opinion.
I’m stating the facts. Only starting QB with four rings makes it a moot argument. May be/have been others with better stats, abilities, whatever. But the FACT that he stands alone in the only stat that matters, makes your OPINION moot.
Not so fast....
It's about to be the Arlington Cowboys
It didn’t take Terry long to move to Dallas after his tenure with the Steelers.
How much did that stadium cost the good taxpayers of Arlington?
Maybe the fact Terry had more Hall of famers around him than any other QB had something to do with it. Using your logic the Steelers back up Guard during that period is the second greatest guard of all time because he’s got four superbowl rings. And Marino is a worse QB than Mark Rypien becasue Rypien has a ring.

If Huston loved football so much, it would be Go Oilers!
Dallas is the New York Yankees of football. Most people outside of the state hate them with a passion. Most can't give a particular reason for it, I sure can't, but hating them just seems like the right thing to do.
he is the greatest. Not to mention the largest head to ever play the game.
No big surprise the Jaguars are last...new team in a small market.
I know JAX would suffer from being in such a small market but last? I think there would be enough disgusted fans in Miami to vote for Jax just out of spite.
Maybe so, but the steelers do it everywhere they go.
