If the NFL thought Americans would ease the backlash against the league — they were sadly mistaken. Photos of empty stadiums from around the league show how dire a situation kneelers have spurred.
Breitbart News reports:
Note, that the Jets played New England on Sunday, meaning there should have been a big crowd for that game. The Texans, Atlanta, and Baltimore are also very relevant teams with relatively loyal fan bases. Yet, thousands upon thousands of fans no-showed or didn’t buy tickets for those games.

Photos of empty stadiums comes amid a slew of disastrous polls shows how far the NFL’s popularity has dropped.
It’s common knowledge the left hates football and contact sports.
They have targeted football for years.
But now thanks to Roger Goodell their prayers are answered.
The NFL managed to pi$$ off their core audience by nearly 40 points in the last three weeks.
Nearly 60 percent of working class Trump supporters now view the NFL unfavorably.
The Week reported:
Just three weeks ago, about 60 percent of both Democrats and Republicans said they viewed the NFL favorably, a daily tracking poll from Morning Consult found. Then President Trump stepped in.
After the president told NFL owners to fire players who kneeled during the national anthem, more and more players did the opposite of what Trump wanted. Now, Trump voters have flipped their allegiances: More than 60 percent view the NFL unfavorably, up from around 30 percent in September. Meanwhile, analysis from The New York Times shows Hillary Clinton voters’ views remain relatively unchanged.
And Trump still hasn’t given up the debate:
President Trump has been driving this hot button issue, waging a culture ware against the NFL that has been damaging to both their players and owners.
