Which NFL team would you consider to be equivalent to Fulham, in terms of history, level of success and fan base and just general Fulhamishness?

I reckon your options are

San Diego Chargers play in white, only made the Superbowl once but lost, smaller team of those in California, have recent offensive potency yet manage to find ways to lose against more solid teams, raise expectations of fans and media alike regularly

Arizona Cardinals one of the oldest teams, one Superbowl appearance quite recently but lost, before that was one of the longest droughts and last championship was as Chicago Cards, play in a unique stadium / environment due to it being in the desert, started wearing black alternate colours

Tennessee Titans previously Houston Oilers owned by an ageing and no nonsense businessman, one superbowl appearance but lost, play in white, refranchised and rebranded from old styling, nothing special probably a top 10 team on there day, currently being overhauled after their 'Hodgson' type manager left

Atlanta Falcons, quirky southern charm, one superbowl appearance which was a loss, recent good mix between off and def, started this season on a flyer, have potential yet used to always struggle away in colder climes, think they lost about 20+ in one streak and also fluctuate between winning and losing seasons massively, flair offence this year

I'm a Fins fan by the way, since 1986

For me it,s the New York Jets, with the exception of the fan base! Mind you if Fulham keep up the good work being done right now 90,000 crowds could be possible - lol!! Very proud to be a Fulham fan right now, as always. - COYW  J- E- T- S Jets Jets Jets!!! Hate the Giants - the New York Chelsea,s.

did consider the Jets bravedave, but bit smashmouth and rowdy, not very fulhamish ;)

Who's our Tim Tebow then. A player with a big reputation but can't get a start... Kinda looking towards Mladen Petric atm
@MattRhys63 - be warned, there will be a lot of nonsense
