YOLOsubmarine posted:Rich billionaire owners are the reason teams move in the first place, since they like to pit cities against each other to get public money to build new stadiums to hold non-football events to get even richer. The league generally begrudgingly accepts moves, rather than pushes for them. Green Bay is one of the top 5 least likely teams to ever move, for historical and economic reasons. Yeah Green Bay is more or less one of the pillars of the league, it's not like moving the Rams

I would prefer a loud public embarrassment to someone like Kliff who tricked them into running the Mike Leach offense for multiple seasons in the NFL I also don't think he has anyone on defense who could run the scheme he was supposedly hired off of, that just so happened to have some of the most talented defensive players running it

Absolutely, this is a team fully prepared to suck, unlike a lot of other teams that had better players and expectations. I think that if the bar for coaching were at floor level, Gannon would trip on it while talking about the need to always keep your eyes forward or some hokey bullshit

D-LINK posted:1. Green Bay Packers Those were top three I could think of, I just said five because it’s a nice round number. But if I had to fill out the top five I’d probably put the Giants and Bears in there as well. I’m talking leaving their home market entirely, not just moving to the suburbs, which the Bears seem pretty intent on doing.

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:I doubt the Bears, Eagles, Dolphins, Broncos, or 49ers would ever move. A few others too but thats all the thought I'm putting into it. Those are great answers. They already moved the 9ers to Santa Clara tho. I got tripped up on the Giants for the same reason

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:They're still the San Fran 49ers though. Bears might move to a suburb but they're still the Chicago Bears. I guess it depends on your definition of "move". I was thinking along the lines of "Bears leave Chicago (area) for St. Louis" or "49ers leave SF (area) for San Diego" rather than "move down the highway to The city of Pittsburgh would be smoldering ash if the Steelers ever left the North shore at the confluence. The distance between old 3 Rivers Stadium and Heinz Field is like... a large parking lot?

I think we're done with full-scale relocation now that they finally got their LA teams (which was an important bargaining chip for decades). Fleeing to the richer (whiter) suburbs is the new hotness.

The Browns are never going anywhere. I can't ever see the NFL allowing a city to lose a team twice. The Raiders don't count

Yeah now that LA/Vegas has teams what cities would even be candidates for a move or expansion? San Diego and St Louis probably the most likely since they already had teams, but then...what? San Antonio? Salt Lake City? Portland? Nothing particularly jumps out as a viable billionaire leverage town to hold anyone ransom

Yeah, Texas or London would also be my suggestions, and I wouldn't dismiss a wild card city like Toronto. Wasn't that a potential rumor for the Bills at one point before they became good again?

Wasn't that a potential rumor for the Bills at one point before they became good again? Mexico City and Toronto are by a wide margin the biggest cites in NA without teams, but Mexico presents a lot of challenges Toronto doesn't (elevation, height, relatively much greater cultural and economic difference). Guadalajara, Monterrey, and Montreal are all also bigger than the biggest US metro without a team (unless you count Tijuana in with San Diego, who tbf should never have lost their team). Then it's St. Louis, and a big logjam of Portland/Orlando/Sacramento/San Antonio, all of which are both much smaller and fairly well established fanbases for existing teams.

They're the 5th oldest franchise and have been in Detroit since 1934. Also, if they were going to move driven by "this team stinks" reasons then it sure as poo poo would have happened by now.

Everyone does. You say San Diego and literally nobody is confused about who you're referring to. There's 8 year olds out there who'll just bust out .... Super Chargers if you say San Diego.
