Seattle Seahawks fans are known to be some of the loudest fans in the NFL, but when it comes to expressing themselves on the Internet, spelling isn’t their best skill.

According to a study by The Wall Street Journal and Grammarly, a writing reference and proofreading site, Seahawks fans rank No. 16 in the NFL in grammar prowess. At least when it comes to writing on the Web.

To compile the results, Grammarly reviewed 150 reader comments at least 50 words long from the news sections of each NFL team website (12,728 total words, on average, per team), according to the WSJ.
