But did you know that three other states have two teams each? (Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan) That means that only 43% of the U.S. states have an NFL team. And of those 43%, only 12% have more than one team. So if you want to root for a home team, you’re more likely to have to choose between two teams than have three to choose from.
