And with Carolina, probably the fastest growing market in the country, they're now a Top 15 total market as well...

That's why those teams get a lot of favoritism from the league (schedule, rulings, etc) even in their down years...

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't a lot of northern Louisianna Cowboy's fans?
