The NFL season is coming up fast, and this year there will be even ore fans that will tune in. The major difference is that the fans come from all over the world! The league has already had a long relationship with England, and has had many games there in recent years. That is just the beginning as now they will be playing in Brazil as well.
The push to create international fans for NFL is working, and there should be millions of more fans tuning in this year from all over the world.
NFL Made Huge International Games For 2024
While football is by far the most popular sport in the U.S. with College Football and the NFL dominating viewership, it is not gaining mass appeal around the globe. Recently, there was a map created by google searches that shows who the most popular team is for each country around the world.
Not only does it reveal that the Australian’s love the Denver Broncos, but it highlights how far the league has come in terms of international fans and engagement. The league’s influence is only getting stronger, and with world wide stars like Taylor Swift involved in last year’s season, the league has never been more popular.
What most American fans did not want to see is that the most popular team in the U.S. and the world is clearly the Dallas Cowboys. You can say you want, but based on popularity, the Cowboys are still America’s Team.
While Dallas still rules America, the Kansas City Chiefs are South America’s team, and the Buffalo Bills are the rulers in Canada and some areas of Europe as well.
Here’s the full map:
This is fascinating. Based on NFL google searches from around the world. Shout out to all the Broncos fans in Australia and the Cardinals fans in Vietnam pic.twitter.com/rbAaddn4Qt

We would all like to know why the Arizona Cardinals are the team for Vietnam or how the Browns made their way into Mongolia, but it is incredible to see the wide spread reach that the league has now.
This is set to be one of the biggest seasons ever in terms of viewership, and it will all start on Thursday, Sept. 5 when the Chiefs play the Baltimore Ravens. However the following day, there will be an amazing opening game in Brazil featuring the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers facing off in Rio de Janeiro.
It seems the NFL will not rest until the entire world is watching!
