Attendance for the '07 NFL regular season was flat with last year, with the league averaging 68,702 fans per game. The Redskins once again led the league, seeing a slight bump in average attendance at FedEx Field. The Bills saw the biggest increase, up 5.0% at Ralph Wilson Stadium during a season filled with speculation about moving some home games to Toronto. During their second season back in the Superdome after Hurricane Katrina, the Saints packed home games to 107.7% capacity, tops in the league, while the Colts filled the RCA Dome to 103.2% capacity but finished last in the league in average attendance. During a season that included the loss of QB Michael Vick and the abrupt departure of head coach Bobby Petrino, the Falcons saw average attendance at the Georgia Dome drop 2.9% from a year ago, while the disappointing Rams were down a league-worst 3.5%. The following presents final regular-season attendance figures for all NFL teams, with comparisons to '06 ( THE DAILY ).
