That’s according to The Harris Poll, which surveyed 2,543 adults (1,275 of whom said they followed professional football). The nationwide poll was taken from Sept. 10-17.
The Broncos replaced the Dallas Cowboys, who had finished in The Harris Poll’s top spot for each of the previous six years as the “favorite team” of adults who follow professional football. The New York Giants finished as the No. 2 team with the Green Bay Packers at No. 3, the Cowboys at No. 4 and Pittsburgh Steelers at No. 5.
The Seattle Seahawks, who routed the Broncos 43-8 in Super Bowl XLVIII this past February, came in at No. 6. The San Francisco 49ers, New England Patriots, Chicago Bears and New Orleans Saints rounded out the top 10.
