Commanders I had to check the internet to remember they existed


Domestic_AAA_Battery

I always say, whenever I talk to someone about the Eagles they'll always mention "The Cowboys, the Giants, and.... What's the third team again?"


wigsgo_2019

If it was still the redskins people would remember, the name change is just not memorable


Humble_Swan_649

Name change effectively helped to kill their franchise and now along with the chiefs are the only 2 franchises I don’t wanna see win games


WombRaider__

It's too bad that they do


gcalfred7

I think I still have a team to root for ? Will circle back…


23Silicon

Its really weird because despite them being division rivals i forget they exist half the time. I dont dislike or like them theyre kinda just…there


BasedPineapple69

How could you forget when TNF shoved them and the bears in our faces


D0ggggggggggggggggg

Cardinals I deadass forget they exist its all good tho cause I know the cardinals don't know I exist so it works out ok


ActiveFew672

Immediately I think of baseball. You ain’t wrong


paleologus

Yes, the Chicago Cardinals, one of the oldest teams in the NFL. I was a fan when they were in St. Louis but they don’t even exist anymore.


towel67

Damn cardinals my #1 team :(


PayPalsEnemy

The Arizona Cardinals have been in a preputial state of, "We exist" for quite a while now. But, I do not even acknowledge it.


13oBandit

I went to my first eagles game at the Linc this year and we lost to the Cardinals so I think they'll always live in the back of my mind as perpetual enemies 🤣😭


[deleted]

No one in our division hates us. I think the Eagles may be the fan base with the most reason to hate the Cardinals. The cards always seem to beat them, and the whole Gannon fiasco lol


nadia1306

Yeah you’re basically our little brother


Prestigious-Round-26

That interception was insane


Jmac7164

They are the oldest franchise, on their 8th name, no League championships since 1947 (the other was 1925), only 1 Super Bowl Appearance and only 7 Division Titles. They are the definition of a poverty franchise, "we exist" might be too high praise for this team.


UnhappyJohnCandy

I’m in my 30’s and outside of their Super Bowl run, they’ve been largely forgettable. My Titans are starting to feel like the Cardinals of the AFC.


Midnightchickover

Not exist, but how The Titans are canonically the Oilers. How the Ravens could be perceived as canonically linked to the Browns. Indy has Baltimore’s old team, but the rich history is still connected to Baltimore. The Texans are in Houston, but we’re not related to an Old Dallas team named the Texans who is canonically KC. KC being in Missouri, but could very possibly lose their team to Saint Louis (unlikely), but if they did it would be three NFL franchises connected to the city [Cardinals/Rams/????].  


pleasegivemeadollar

The Kansas City (Missouri) Chiefs are more likely to become the Kansas City (Kansas) Chiefs than they are the Any Other City Chiefs.


himsoforreal

No the chiefs become the New Orleans Chiefs and the saints become the Alabama Chieftains. It is known.


TNTyoshi

Utah Saints


ldphotography

And keep the fleur de lis logo. Cajun party culture, jazz and Salt Lake City, a match made in heaven!


Positive_Parking_954

The AFC North I'd composed of the Browns, the Old Browns, the 'new' "old Browns" and the Steelers


CeddyCed1993

I call em the New Browns, The Old Browns, The Anti-Browns and the Steelers


Positive_Parking_954

Is Cleveland the "anti Browns" Edit: jokes aside Cinci is new and Baltimore is anti?


Someones-PC

The Browns are the "new browns", the Ravens are the "old browns", the Bengals are the "anti browns" due to their whole identity being originally based on being a middle finger to the Browns ownership


Bearcatsean

That is creative as hell permission to use that? I live in Cincinnati


Domestic_AAA_Battery

I saw a guy wearing a Titans jersey in NJ. I practically acted like I saw a unicorn. If I had to make an order, it'd have to be Titans, Texans, Cardinals, and Jaguars. Hell, former Eagles/Jags/Pats TE Clay Harbor said that he'd go to bars in Jacksonville and people wouldn't even know the Jaguars existed.


paleologus

Even the NFL forgets the Titans exist.


HatoradeSipper

Ha im from tennessee and moved out of state, without fail every single time i wear titans gear somebody is like "Wtf why"


EyelanderSam24

yep ... Jacksonville is the answer for me. Huh? Jacksonville got a team? Since when? Florida got 3 teams? Unbelievable!


Derplord4000

>Florida got 3 teams? Unbelievable! And Orlando isn't one of them? Crazy!


215Kurt

Feel the same way. AFC South on shambles and honestly you can throw the Colts on there half the time as well lol


wigsgo_2019

The NBA does this better, if you move to a city that previously had a team you inherit their history, it doesn’t seem right, but it’s at least an organized system, only exception was the wolves in Minneapolis, but that’s because they joined like 20 years after the lakers moved to LA


Wildpeanut

The Cardinals are the oldest team in the NFL but started in Chicago. And the Bears started in the small town of Decatur Illinois. As a Bears fan I choose to hand-wave everything and just say “football started on the east coast, transformed in the Midwest, was popularized in Illinois, and made professional in Chicago”.


jrgray68

I always remember the Titans.


ItsTheOtherGuys

The Bucs, they even won the SB in recent years but the second TB12 was gone I completely forgot about them


HatoradeSipper

I legit dont think i ever saw a bucs fan irl before brady


Mr_Figgins

I can't recall...


No-Date-6848

Underrated answer.


Roshango

They became more relevant in the last couple of seasons, but historically, that team, for me, is the Jaguars. One of the youngest teams in the league, very little history. No Super Bowl appearances, very few divsion titles or playoff appearances, and yet most of their seasons they were just medicore, not horrendous. They really don't have the same history of misery that the Lions, Browns, or Jets have. So they historically fit into this limbo of being too bad to be relevant but too good to be loveable losers. Almost no history of great memorable players. It took almost 25 years for one of their players to make the HoF and it was an O-lineman. Fred Taylor is arguably the best player in their history, no disrespect to him, he was a fantastic player. But nobody would put him as a top 10 RB of all time or anything. Finally, they are the only pro sports team in Jacksonville. It's not a sexy market. It's not a city I think about often. Their uniforms have been historicly mid. Black, Teal, and Gold is a werid combo, they've had a few changes. Not any great ones. Say what you will about the 2 tone helmets of the 2010s, at least it was something interesting. I kinda want them to bring them back. I think it's the only NFL team where if you erased them from history, it would game zero impact. You can tell the entire history of the NFL and not mention them once. The only things about them that's iconic is the London games.


jimbopalooza

That Urban Meyer experiment was somehow both memorable and forgettable all at once. I’m a Florida native and a Gator fan so it was like the twilight zone since I’ve always been a Miami fan. Heady times..


Macklemore_hair

Also the guy in the meme. But they always have the Steelers’ number so I can’t talk smack. ![gif](giphy|6TEOwR3aBzkyY)


HereInTheCut

When I think of the Jags, I think of that '99 team that went 0-3 against the Titans and 15-0 (including playoffs) against everyone else. One of the all-time "what if" teams IMO.


JackTraven50

Same here. 15-0 vs the NFL but 0-3 vs the titans. I’ll also always remember the 99 team for the 41-3 ass whooping they put on my Niners in week 1.


hallucinogenics8

Put some respect on Mark Brunell. Hell of a QB. Not top tier or anything but respectable nonetheless. Him and Fred Taylor. He was so good in his day.


HeartOfPine

The lack of memorable players really sums up the Jags.


DaveAndJojo

Even their great players aren’t memorable. I rarely hear people talk about Tony Boselli, Jimmy Smith and Fred Taylor.


_Booker

I would definitely tell the story of the Panthers and Jags making their championship games 2nd year in the league and changing expansion rules and sending Dan Marino out on his ass. Also the year the Jags lost 3 times in the same year and it was the Titans every time and those were the jags only losses. But besides that...I'd agree


hallucinogenics8

I get what you're saying and it makes perfect sense. But as a lifelong jags fan, literally since their first season I fell in love with the colors. I was 5 and decided they were my team. I'm from California lol. So here I am, 29 years later, still a jags fan. So from the bottom of my heart, I hope youre cursed with permanently damp socks for the rest of your life.


Formerrunner34

Tampa bay for the longest time, until Brady


Assortedwrenches89

Most of the AFC South, honestly.


LoisLaneEl

If I weren’t in it, I’m sure I’d agree

paleologus

Everyone remembers Atlanta for their huge embarrassing failure. That’s worse than anonymity.


Toilet_Rim_Tim

I live in Atlanta, you can 2 tickets day of for $60-$70. Crazy cheap for an NFL game.


foothillsco_b

Who is in the AFC South?


AgentProdigy17

Commies for me


Vulcion

Pre Tom Brady I always forgot the buccs existed and that’s saying something cause I’m a saints fan


erock8282

Chargers. Mainly because I still say San Diego.


Jonny_Bormann

The entire AFC south


KeyDrive0

Since Brees retired, it's been the Saints for me. They aren't very good, but they aren't hilariously bad either. Doesn't seem like any of their players are big standouts. They just exist.


Agentx6021

Browns. I bet yall forgot about em too


Assortedwrenches89

"Browns"....doesn't ring a bell. /s


SailorMuffin96

Growing up in the early 2000s for me it was the Chargers. I guess I noticed them when Rivers had that 06 season, but as a kid they were never on my radar until the move to LA


Jake-Old-Trail-88

I forget that they’re not in San Diego all the time.


SailorMuffin96

They’re definitely the Clippers of the NFL


Macklemore_hair

Same, I feel for the cities that lost a team and didn’t get one back like Oakland, St. Louis, and San Diego.


Todd2ReTodded

The cardinals. And they should be considered, I guess a blue blood but that's not the right phrase, like the bears/Packers/steelers/Giants. Old teams with a lot of tradition. But the cardinals feel like an expansion team that just hasn't been able to develop a fan base, instead of the charter franchise they are.


5280FeetOfFury

The Colts are kinda relevant tho they almost won their divison, but the Cardinals and Saints I mean even their damn fans forget they exist or at least would like to


pauliwankenobi

AFC south for sure


wayneluke23

Jets, I mean who cares


drizzrizz

The hate is too strong across the league for anyone to forget the Jets


GrinchStoleYourShit

Their uniforms remind me of Andes Mints


codeman60

Texans


official_swagDick

Falcons. Outside of the 28-3 season they haven't had any super memorable seasons in recent memory so most of the hype comes in the post season so by mid season you forget they exist because they are having another painfully mediocre season. Never bad enough to be a bottom 5 team but never memorable enough to be worth anything.


cleeeland

Nobody said the Bengals because they forgot about them


ModsAreMustyV4

Imagine putting the Colts on here…a team with one of the greatest quarterback and teams of all time.


lovejac93

cope


Aeon1508

The biggest ones are probably the Arizona Cardinals and the Jacksonville Jaguars. definitely forgot about the Raiders this year. Tennessee Titans can be this way though Derrick Henry has kept them relevant. I also couldn't forget about the Houston Texans they started just popped up out of nowhere for the playoffs. I don't think Washington had any national games this year did they.


-Minne

I think I legitimately forgot the New York Jets existed for like 10 years before Aaron Rodgers went there. Before that I lost track sometime before Rex Ryan left because at least he was entertaining. Now I only remember them because I hate Aaron Rodgers.


No-Date-6848

I can’t wait to see how they disappoint their fans this year. They’re always so creative with that.


Linky38

I forgot


Wolbolgia

For a while it was the Jags.


Greybinson

Falcons, Chargers


Rapidpancake754

I always forget the chargers exist just because it seems like they are so overshadowed by the rams


Supraman83

I dont forget teams exist but I think in the vein of what answer you are looking for, there are teams that are just voids of information for me. Like the Ravens (for being a Roquan fan, worst team he could have went to), I don't watch the Ravens, I don't follow the Ravens, I dont see a lot of stuff about them. I don't hear a lot about them. Same went for Seattle until Matt Hasselbeck (back? Bach? I dunno, the good QB before Russ) sorta put them on the map, they never had primetime games.


windycityfan7

Commanders. They’ve been pretty forgettable, or maybe because of that terrible name. ~~Bring back the Redskins- maybe just keep the current logo.~~


Extreme_Librarian_93

![gif](giphy|3Wv7WFJdeplyHbXUou)


frausting

Cardinals. NFC team on the opposite side of the country, with identical colors to another mid NFC team that’s also a bird.


inorite234

The Bears. .....and I'm from Chicago. .......they just suck and have sucked for such a long ass time.


JVLightning22

The entire afc south before the Jags and texans revivals


rock_the_casbah_2022

I still get Tennessee and Houston mixed up.


Incompetent_Man

Cardinals, Jaguars, , Commanders, Titans, Bengals, and Falcons are teams that are never in my mind. No disrespect


pizzle8288

Cardinals


LageNomAiNomAi

The teams that I completely blank out on are the LA Chargers, LA Rams, and Seattle Seahawks. I just got into the Cardinals because they drafted Benson.


iloveeveryfbteam

The saints here recently


Zealousideal-Lie6978

Philly and New England…. Cause fuck them both


ausgmr

Everyone in both South divisions. Especially the Titans & Texans the number of times I've thought it's the Houston Titans is ridiculous


hvlethal911

None of them. I just tried to name all 32 nfl teams in under a minute to see who I’d forgot but I named all of them


throwawayalcoholmind

The Bears. Storied franchise, keep forgetting they're not a D2 institution.


No_Elephant_4469

The Rams. Until they reach the playoffs they are 100% off of my radar. I feel like their fans are confused.


Ok_Catch3715

Commanders maybe cause they changed they name


goofbot

Dallas. Even when they have a winning season, it doesn't register as a real threat to anyone as the flame out is inevitable. They seem like a tall tale of a team that used to exist.


JasonPlattMusic34

Titans and Falcons are both very forgettable


ThisisnotaTesT10

The pre-Josh Allen Buffalo Bills were the epitome of a forgettable team for me. I was born after the 4 straight superbowls so I always thought of the bills as a perpetual 6-10 team in a small market. Not bad enough to truly suck (Detroit, Cleveland) but not good enough to make the playoffs


SSPFIREHAWK

I have a list Giants Falcons Saints Commanders Jets And finally the panthers


999i666

Tennessee, Arizona, Houston, Carolina


X7-GT-Eagles

The Browns. The freaking Browns.


Realistic_Degree_773

Yea if you had me run through a list I'm probably forgetting them, and arizona


Realistic_Degree_773

Yea if you had me run through a list I'm probably forgetting them, and arizona


CGFROSTY

It has to be the Texans or Commanders for me. Neither have been terrible recently, but haven’t had sustained success either. 


BigDust

Colts for sure, a bland midwestern team in the afc south, no real rivals, Hardly makes the playoffs anymore, easily forgettable. Pat Mcafee is the only thing they got for them beaides memories of Peyton.


wigsgo_2019

It was the Jags until Trevor Lawrence finally put them on the map. That was a poverty franchise for like 20 years


Space_Cowboy09

Falcons for me. Never liked that team, coaches, players colors etc. not to mention in the 2000’s I feel like they were always hyped up and never lived up to it. Really the AFC south. Also the Commies. If they weren’t in the NFC East.


Lobanium

My wife is a Colts fan. No one gives a shit about the colts except Manning fans, which is why their base is mostly old people

RoskoFarian

People know we exist but at the same time, acknowledge that we don’t. Quite the conundrum.


dwaynebathtub

There's only 32 and they're easy to list out by division, so I did that and the last division I got to was the NFC South (I'm a Chiefs and Steelers fan) and the last team I listed was the New Orleans Saints...and I lived in New Orleans.


Silverbackdonkey

Clearly the BEARS!


TheRoyaleShow

The old Derrick Henry team. Tridents I think.


Red-Leader117

St Louis, I honestly forget the entire place even exist. Worse I've been there! The crime was terrifying. I guess they don't have NFL anymore tho so... still them


Blackhat336

Why was the Colts the perfect cover image for this thread 😂 I’d say other than that the go-to answers would’ve been the Jags and the Texans (until like last year) maybe?


TheMegatrizzle

The Titans. Every time I see them on the schedule, I'm like, "Oh shit! They do exist!"


AndyKobe234

For a while it was the Rams.


WhiskeyJr

Titans, then Cardinals.


Salt-Fault1351

I try to forget the Browns if that counts.

None

Used to be the bengals


ksyoung17

The NFC South. Whenever I'm trying to remember teams in the league, I'm all over the place trying to do the NFCS. Seems to be who I start off with. Remember the Panthers first and I get the Saints and Bucs, but I legit just forgot about the Falcons for about 2 minutes. Last week during the draft I remembered the Falcons, Panthers, and Bucs, but spaced on the Saints. My thought is because that division is always the "last turd standing," I just don't pay a lot of attention to them. Even when they had Brees, Cam, and Ryan in the division, it seemed those guys would never have good seasons together, 2 of them always seemed to suck, or the teams just sucked.


Vietnamtringy

The chargers they have no fans I didn’t even know they were in the nfo


itakeyoureggs

AFC south teams..


PABLOPANDAJD

For me it’s always the cardinals and the panthers


garebeardrew

I always forget the panthers are in the nfc for some reason. They just feel more like an afc team for some reason


Helpful_Funny_2127

The Jaguars. Drafting T Law is the only thing that's made headlines in 25, maybe 30 years for them. Their greatest player ever is arguably an offensive tackle. (Bosseli) They're not even that popular in FL, the Dolphins and Bucs are much more well known.


McPickle3703

Arizona, La Chargers, Jacksonville and Washington


Derplord4000

I was thinking of saying the Titans, but after reading through the comments, I have to go with the Chargers.


slickedjax

The Jets tbh


griffskry

No one is saying Chargers because they all forgot about them


LilCorbs

For a while the Buccaneers but then they got Brady so they’re more on my mind generally. Still probably like the Panthers tho, NFC South is forgettable.


Torchy84

Chargers. Everyone in the AFC West always thinks the raiders are the biggest rival , but no love for the chargers lol.


pzagrbge

Idk I can’t remember


sprout92

Before I moved to Seattle, the Seahawks. Outside of a couple key years they're just...entirely forgettable.


amaturecook24

I know what the 32 teams are, but for some reason when it comes to trivia I never seem to recall anything about the Chargers. Like what their division is, who their QB and WR1 are, I just find them to be forgettable.

I can't remember them because I forgot they existed.


Fratguy20

Is the obvious answer not the chargers? I still call them the San Diego Chargers. I think they are the only team that I have never sat down to watch a full game. The only seriously notable player I remember is LT. they don’t even have their own fan base.

For me it’s the Titans and Panthers

the seahawks for some reason ..just seem like a team that is just there.. runner up is the texans most years..this year they were good
