I plugged in what I could for teams that were already associated with the city OR for teams that were in close proximity to the appropriate city. I will leave it up to you to find homes for the remaining teams. Those teams are: Jags, Bengals, Jets, Bills, Packers, and Saints.

 

State your case as to why you think the remaining teams should go where you have them going. Lets have a bit of fun with this!

Well since New York is the biggest market I am sure it can hold the Giants and Jets.

Well, I am sure it could but... I am trying to stick to the list and give the top 32 TV markets ONE team each. Where would you like to see the jets relocate to? You dont even have to go by what I have filled in already... just make it what you want for the 32 TV markets and have fun!

Yeah that'll teach him not to pay me.

 

 

Actually it was a GC having a barbecue for sub-contractor appreciation:)  (me being a sub)

Think Los Angeles Saints would be a pretty catchy name. Same thing with the Portland Packers.

those are both teams with long waiting lists for season tickets. LA jags maybe

 

a more interesting thing to look at would be market size/fan loyalty ratio

Yeah thats true. I suppose the Jags would be a better fit for somewhere like LA i suppose for the fans point of view, not for the winning but the Jags aren't the best team around and won't sell out every week (i wouldn't think).

 

But tbh i just thought the names sounded good rather than the reality aspect of it all.

 

Probably need to change from the Jags to something else imo if a move to LA was to happen.

Washington (Hagerstown) - Redskins

 

Uhhhh... what does Hagerstown have to do with the Redskins?  Reddit failed hard.
