Just Jack Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Scenario: The NFL has decided they want one team in every state, and for some odd reason, decided you're the one to decide where they go. Here's the criteria... 1) States that already have one team, will stay where they are. Names could change to better reflect the state/city that they play in, example, New England Patriots could go back to using Boston Patriots. Carolina Panthers will become North Carolina Panthers or Charlotte Panthers. 2) States with multiple teams, will need to relocate teams to a state with no team, to get them down to one team remaining. So, Florida with the Bucs, Jags, and Dolphins, two of those three teams will need to move. Teams that are moved, can keep their identity, like if you moved the Dolphins to Hawaii, they could stay as the Hawaiin Dolphins, or you could change their identity if you want. 3) New teams will be named after the city/location they will play in or state name. So, a team in Idaho could be named either the Idaho Spuds or Boise Spuds. 4) No need to worry about divisions/conferences, that will all be figured out later. Here are your lists. Teams that are staying put Arizona - Arizona Cardinals Colorado - Denver Broncos Georgia - Atlanta Falcons Illinois - Chicago Bears Indiana - Indianapolis Colts Louisiana - New Orleans Saints Massachusetts - New England Patriots (need to be renamed) Michigan - Detroit Lions Minnesota - Minnesota Vikings Missouri - Kansas City Chiefs Nevada - Las Vegas Raiders New York - Buffalo Bills North Carolina - Caroliina Panthers (need to be renamed) Tennessee - Tennessee Titans Washington - Seattle Seahawks Wisconsin - Green Bay Packers States with teams that must relocate one or more teams. California - Los Angelese Chargers, Los Angelese Rams, San Fransico 49ers Florida - Jacksonville Jaguars, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Miami Dolphins Maryland - Baltimore Ravens, Washington Commanders New Jersey - Giants, Jets (remaining team location must be renamed to reflect state or city) Ohio - Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns Pennsylvania - Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburg Steelers Texas - Dallas Cowboys, Houston Texans States with no teams currently Alabama Alaska Arkansas Connecticut Delaware Hawaii Idaho Iowa Kansas Kentucky Maine Mississippi Montana Nebraska New Hampshire New Mexico North Dakota Oklahoma Oregon Rhode Island South Carolina South Dakota Utah Vermont Virginia West Virginia Wyoming So how would you do it? What teams would you relocate? What new teams would you come up with? Edited October 28, 2023 by Just Jack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Cincinnati just builds a new stadium across the river. Problem solved. Dolphins to Alabama: Saban can coach them again. Alabama F-150s Jets go to Utah to keep Zach happy. Utah Cougars. Chargers move to Connecticut. Still called the Chargers, but now they’re named after that plate that rich people put under their plate. Jags to SD. Called the Dakota Frackers.

mrags Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Do I have to be the terrible person here in thinking that the Bills would not be the team to stay in NY? I firmly believe the Jets would end up being New Jersey and the Giants would end up being NY. They’d probably ship the Bills off to Alaska or something 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Idaho or Wyoming that has 500,000 people, or maybe London, Berlin, Bonn, and Madrid who so far in Germany there were 3,000,000 tickets requested within 24 hrs. They arent placing teams in Midwest states over bajillions of dollars in europe. Not happening. New CBA, means new International division, and my guess is it’s already in the works. Hawaii sounds interesting, but it’s as far from the east coast to europe. Alabama is a college state. I was with my rep a few years ago and he must’ve said Roll Tide 33 times in one day. They don’t care about the NFL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
