You can't really compare the English leagues with the NFL. There is no relegation, the stadium has a 67,000 capacity in Seattle. Their closest divison game is San Francisco. Just look on a map of the USA to see how far that is. But I'm sure if there was a team within 7 hours drive away, many many fans would make the trip. Americans drive a lot, I'm sure 7 hours isn't half as much to them as it seems to us.
The point is, there's only 8 away games in a season in the NFL, and most of them are hundreds or even thousands of miles away. I guarantee to you that if all 32 NFL teams were located within an area the size of the UK, the away support would be unprecedented.
