After Commanders slam their fans, fans turn backs on Commanders
These are dark days in Washington. Once in first place in the NFC East, the Commanders have bumbled and stumbled their way into third, and their free fall might not be done. And now, a franchise once renowned for its fan support is feeling the pinch of suckitude at the turnstiles.
Here’s the problem: the fans aren’t liking the product’s direction. And they’re voting with their feet. And that, in turn, is incensing the players. Josh Norman unloaded back in November on the hometown fans:
“I feel like we play better on the road, I’m not going to lie,” Norman said. “We go into the homestands and it’s like an open bubble. Like the other team’s turf or something. You hear more of them than you do us. Then if something bad happens, they suck. They sit back in their seat and they boo. I don’t know. This year, I’m starting to see that.”
