:Since most games in the NFL are sell outs, road attendance in the NFL is a :useless statistic, based almost entirely on stadium size and not fan :interest.
It's hard to argue with you when you're right.
A high road attendance figure just means that you didn't visit Arizona.

At the risk of stating the obvious, it's those goddamned uniforms. At least lose the white stripes on the sides, dammit.

If you show me their road schedules, with their stadium capacity, and those teams average home attendance, you've basically made up 95% of another team's road attendance.
The idea that people say "Hey let's go buy tickets because the Bengals are a hot, up and coming team!" is laughable.

It isn't coincidental.
Nobody's looking for any reason to leave New Orleans.

Most of their games should be blacked out *within* the stadium.
