It’s every NFL fans’ right to complain when they feel like there’s a bad call against their favorite team. It’s also their prerogative to boast when that team wins, and sulk when that team loses. But when things get taken a little bit too far, well that’s when it enters sheer annoying levels.

We all know that person or persons who allow a sporting event to impact their entire life. They watch their team win and they’re happy all day and all week. But if that team loses, stay the hell away from them, because they’re bound to complain and be depressed — or maybe even become violent — until the next game comes around. Ah, yes, such is the life of NFL fans.

But which fanbase is worse than others? Which supporters are annoying AF when it comes to whining? And which NFL player is the worst complainer in the entire league? We now sort of know thanks to a new survey.

A website called MiBets surveyed more than 5,100 NFL fans to help determine which players, coaches and supporters complain the most. Some of the results are pretty surprising, while others are probably more than predictable. So without further adieu, take a look below at the results of the most annoying pro football fans on the planet.

Is it any surprise to see the top-5 most annoying NFL fans include supporters of the Cowboys, Patriots and Eagles? Probably not. Ask anyone who knows one of these supporters and you’re bound to hear something negative about the way they cheer… er, complain.

What is a little surprising is seeing both the Bears and Bills in the top-5, though, as one would imagine fans of the Jets, Giants and Browns would be much higher on the list. In my personal opinion, those three franchises have some of the most miserable fans — and I should know, because I’m a lifelong Browns fan. But, hey, maybe folks in the Dawg Pound actually aren’t as bad as I thought.

Now that you know about the NFL fans that are most annoying, MiBets.com also asked respondents to reveal the NFL player and head coaches who they think whines the most. The winner on both sides aren’t shocking at all, with Tom Brady taking the honor for players and Bill Belichick finishing atop the list for coaches. See how the rest of the list shakes out below.

We all love being NFL fans, wearing jerseys on game day and drinking a ton of brews to either celebrate a victory or help relieve the pain of a defeat. But try not to be that kind of person, who takes it all way too seriously and actually makes it a painful experience for other watching with you. It’s not worth losing a friend over, fellas.
