Winning brings out everyone and their mother to games.

IIRC, attendance started to decline somewhere in 1999. Winning helps, but it's not a cure-all.

Money matters too...  In 1999 we had one of the highest average ticket prices in the league, while having one of the lowest average income NFL cities in the country.  
People were required to sign 3 year contracts when purchasing season tix when the franchise started up.  When the first 3 years was up, folks may have felt they were being price-gouged compared to the rest of the league and didn't renew...  I know my folks did, but they didn't cancel their tix until they moved away.  When the team went downhill due to salary cap hell, many more folks bailed.  Ticket prices were reduced by Weaver until they were more in line with the economy of Jax, but we've pretty much sucked since then.
