I remember when Tebow made this list year after year. Kaepernick, Arian Foster, Lynch are a little high. Kuechley is a pleasant surprise. Surprised Lynch is on there at all and Earl Thomas isn't. Earl is always healthy, never injured, never been caught doing anything stupid or illegal, always a top player in the league. Was the first jersey I bought since Julian Peterson. One of the model players in the league imo.

Edit: They since released a list which is limited to jerseys only, not "all NFL apparel items."

Nobody likes Megatron.

[Dutch 874]

A.J Green needs more love. Other jerseys I'd cop that aren't Eagles are A.J Green, Luke Kuechly, Adrian Peterson, Julio Jones and Jamaal Charles.

Or it could be a large amount of people in Detroit don't have a sufficient income to spend $100+ for a football jersey. Priorities. To be fair, those Chinese knockoffs look pretty damn good these days, and hella cheap to boot.

How can you even call yourself a fan of the Eagles if you'd wear another teams jersey?

This is just theoretically speaking. That's why I said "I would" in the sense of an imagined scenario. I wasn't clear on that though but I personally can't push myself to do it. But, I do know people that wear other jerseys and that doesn't question your fan card. Just shows you a fan of the game and like other players (or people that do it for fashion purposes).

no Titans on the list, not that I'm surprised, small market team with no real marquee players, just thought I'd make the observation

[Dutch 874]

The last notable player I could think from the Titans would be Chris Johnson a few years ago and possibly Vince Young at one time.

yeah, the only current Titans jersey I have right now is Michael Griffin (which I'm not sure I would buy right now, though I do still like Griff) among other recent players, VY was up there on this chart back in the day (he was rookie of the year) I also have a Chris Johnson jersey (which will be living in my closet for a while) and a Cortland Finnegan jersey, like I said, I'm not surprised at all that no Titans cracked the top 50

After I made the thread they actually released a list of the top jersey sellers. The original post is a list of all apparel items, shirts, hats, whatever. As far as all jersey sales go, Calvin is a much more respectable 12th

[BJORN 679]

Why the hell is Witten at #15? Lol

[Dutch 874]

Fitting that Shady has the 25th most popular jersey.

[CampinWithaMissingPerson 2,025]

About to cop that Gabbert 49ers jersey.

 

[panthergf 31]

About to add to Luke's numbers by 2 this summer they just released his jersey in the LIMITED jerseys going to grab me one for my collection and one to take down to training camp to get signed probably grab another Cam limited to get signed as well. My only problem to figure out which color to get to keep in Lukes and to get signed bouncing back and forth between blue & black.

 

Smaller market but cool to see two Panthers in the top 50 in sales.

[Dutch 874]

Anyone wants to start a list of players who you think shouldn't be on that list or lower? I'll start off.

 

Miles Austin

Every quarterback. Yes Wilson included. Always been my biggest pet peeve about football fans, majority of the fans have to wear their teams quarterback even if their team isn't the Pack, Pats, Saints, Colts or Broncos.

to be fair, the QB is usually the best known player on any given team because of focus that the position necessarily puts on them

[Bucman 891]

Manziel will top this list once drafted.

[Dutch 874]

Surprised Darren McFadden can still crack this list. I expect Eddie Lacy will make this list soon. I'm surprised Arian Foster isn't on here and the lack of Larry Fitzgerald is disturbing

Richardson

 

 

The people who brought his jersey mad lol.

[Kosar 15]

A lot of people wasted money on Miles Austin jerseys. Not sure why someone would buy a jersey of a player when you will wear it more than he does on game day. That guy is made of fine china.
