- In today's video, Me and my Cohost Elijah discuss the possibility of new expansion franchises for the NFL, with the talent level getting higher and higher and more time passing since the last was added, it seems only fitting.
If you like the style of this video, let us know any other topics you'd like us to cover and leave your thoughts on expansion franchises in the comments below!
Regionalizing divisions will cut back on fan investment. A Houston Texans fan not only tunes into Houston games but may take some interest in Dallas Cowboys games. Both teams are from the same state and they're not considered rivals, much a lot of times results in a fan still carrying about the performance of both teams. By caring for both teams they also care about a wider range of divisional opponents. This creates more familiarity with a wider base. Come playoff time the fan is less likely to check out whether two teams are out because they're familiarity with a larger number of teams.
You know I spent some time thinking about it and I do not understand this point of view. The NFL is a mainstream league, they do not profit from a casual viewer who MAY tune into an extra playoff game of a nearby team. Regionalizing increases monetary gains from fans who would be more willing to pay higher ticket prices because their travel costs are cheaper. Also, the Cowboys/Texans argument seems pretty specific as they are one of the few in-state duos who aren’t rivals in some capacity.
Eagles vs steelers, giants vs jets, Texans vs cowboys, rams vs chargers, buccs vs dolphins vs jaguars, would make the nfl crazy money
One of my picks would be St. Louis because they were screwed out of a franchise not once but twice when both the Cardinals and Rams moved to different cities and States. Also some Highschool soccer teams in my area in Western PA shared the same field as their football teams. I can see that happening at the pro level. I wouldn't go international due to the fact of cultural difference between football and soccer also rugby is also pretty big in Europe as well.
I know some things about the CFL like their fields are different and their rules are very different like CFL teams only get 3 downs instead of 4 vs the NFL. I also know some very well known players and Coaches like Bud Grant who used to be an NFL coach of the Vikings who won 3 Grey Cup championships and both Doug Flutie and Warren Moon also played in the CFL and won some Grey Cups as well. However I can't see a merger working because how the fields and rules are very different. It wasn't like the AFL and NFL merger that happened in in 1970. The only rule difference to my knowledge between the AFL and NFL was that the AFL had the 2pt Conversion which the NFL didn't adopt until 1994.
San Diego needs a NFL team again
Facts, however with how saturated the California market is, I’m not sure it’ll be anytime soon
@@FranchiseTagged California as a market is a mess right now now
good video
Banger comment
I’d love to see the nfl have two Canadian teams, Vancouver and Toronto. If it wasn’t for the sorry cfl this might have happened already
yeah the nfl should expand to Mexico largest fan base outside of us
I think maybe Birmingham Alabama needs an nfl team considering the university of Alabama
I know Virginia won’t get an nfl team, but they need some kind of professional sports team, like they have NOTHING
Virginia just has to be willing to compete they'd have to front money for the infrastructure most likely
I don’t think there’s enough “untapped” fan base here to justify putting up the money to bring in a team. Everyone here is already a Washington fan, a Baltimore fan or a Cowboys fan. And they are good, committed fans.
Does Virginia not claim the Commanders? I get the whole “District” thing but is there a distinction there really?
@@FranchiseTagged 90% of Virginia football fans are not commanders fans
I live in Virginia we don’t have big cities here that can support a big 4 sports team except Norfolk they can definitely support a nba team
Saint louis, orlando, san antonio, memphis, birmingham, salt lake city, mexico city(2 teams maybe), portland, sactamento, san diego, omaha and okc
I think even South Carolina could get a team
The CFL would never allow the Teams of the CFL merge into the NFL, to make the NFL better. The CFL would just say have a nice day. But The NFL could place Teams in Portland, Oregon, Birmingham,Alabama, Omaha, Nebraska, and Salt Lake City, Utah. These 4 Cities don’t have NFL Teams, and would have a better chance of getting the League more across the US map. Forget San Diego, North & South Dakota, Montana, Idaho, not enough people. Iowa, New Mexico, Alaska, Hawaii, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, South Carolina, Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine. All because they don’t have enough people. But, You could relocate some Teams to areas with potential and population, just move some Teams to other places. Florida and California both have more than one Team. Texas, Ohio, Pennsylvania all have 2 Teams. Spread the Teams around for Everyone to get a Team. Just a crazy thought idea for some People who have to travel far just to see Their Teams.
Utah has been the fastest growing state since 2010. The wasatch front metro area has 2.6 million people and growing larger every year.
Hey, Fun!
Okay, here me out --
* NFL absorbs the Canadian League
* Reduces them from nine teams, to eight
* Each division gets a Canadian team, ensuring that all teams must travel north
Norfolk natives or Roanoke rebels
Bro even it out man new Mexico, Portland, Boise Idaho, billings Montana
Shreveport louisiana has a stadium 50 cent can help bring a team there
Sacrificing a team in Vancouver is a horrible idea. Vancouver is a way better market than Hamilton. Just change the Lions name there
I can agree to that, as I said in the video removing the team with a copycat name was just a move of convenience, and there was for sure better ways to remove 1 team with more respect to the history of the CFL
Portland Oregon needs a team. We sell out all our Blazers and Timbers games and they're not even good.
it's Seahawks territory don't think that would ever happen
I just moved out of Portland after living there for 5 years and being a delivery Driver in the area for 2 (so i got to see lots of people's yard signs and team decorations). The Seahawks are popular there but far from have a stranglehold on the market, the 9ers are just as popular and there are probably as many random out of market fans as there are Seahawks or 9ers fans. I think a Portland team could take over.
If they want to do Europe, create a separate European league. with a eurpoean superbowl. North American champ plays the European champ for title of best team in the world.
In my opinion, Salt Lake looks like it's gearing up for an NFL franchise
I think this would be too similar to the euro league of the past and would fail for similar reasons. With NFL matchups every week there would be way more viewership than in a league of its own.
@@FranchiseTagged But the travel would be a major problem, which probably can't be overcome. Having just few teams in Europe that have to fly back and forth would at a major disadvantage.
They tried that twice it failed
It’s perfect right now leave it alone
We agree, but realistically money will always be motivator for the NFL and they will seek to expand revenue, this was just a fun hypothetical while NFL news is extremely slow
Sorry, the NFL will eventually expand again. The money is too much to ignore.
They should split the Carolinas, also side note but if they do expand I’d like the Carolinas to change their name/logo, the panthers is kinda boring and doesn’t have much to do with their region. Commanders is also lame.
Commanders for sure need to rebrand again, and renovate the stadium.
Absolutely not!!! The NFL will want us to change The CFL . our field size will need to be smaller . Thety'll want us to go to four downs. wNFL will want us to get rid of the extra man on the field go from 12 to 11. they'll want us to take NFL rules in general that's what makes the CFL unique is our rule set. And big brother will want to take it all away no thank you!!!
when the NFL had created European league, they should have NFL teams play against them to build up more interests.
World League of American Football and Nfl Europe were complete fails
Oklahoma does not deserve a nfl team and a basketball team that basketball team belongs to the sonics
NAH ROCHESTER, CANANDAIGUA, GENEVA, GREECE, AND FAIRPORT DEFINITELY NEEDS A NFL TEAM CAUSE IT'LL MAKE MORE SENSE ATP SINCE NONE OF THESE CITIES HAVE A PRO SPORTS TEAM DUH LOL 💯.
Preach. Also fuck the packers - the lions fan
@@FranchiseTagged OH REALLY, AND YO YOU SAID WHATT ABOUT MY TEAM OK YOU DORK 🤣.
@@FranchiseTagged BUT I'M NGL WITH ALL DUE TO RESPECT BRO THE LIONS ARE UNDERRATED IMO, AS MUCH AS I DON'T LIKE MY DIVISION TEAM WHICH IS YOU GUYS, THE VIKINGS AND THE BEARS OFC, I REALLY HATE AND CAN'T STAND THE 49ERS MOREE FOR A REASON EVEN THOUGH 💯, AND WAS PERSONALLY HOPING THAT YOU GUYS WOULD'VE WON AGAINST THEM IN THE NFC CHAMPIONSHIP🏆LAST SEASON LMAO.
@@FranchiseTaggedBTW I DO LIKE JARED GOFF, JAMAL WILLIAMS, AND AIDAN HUTCHINSON THO 💯.
It’s long past due for the NFL to go to 🇨🇦. Vancouver & Toronto would be the major targets up north.
Facts, give the NFC North more pseudo rivals to pick on.
People always text about placing a NFL Team in Canada, but it’s not going to happen, for one Main Reason, The CFL, doesn’t want any NFL Teams permanently playing in Canada.
Won't happen cuz that was already said he won't go to Canada as long as the CFL is in Toronto and Vancouver it's one of those teams should fold then it's possible. But both are owned by large corporations the Argos are owned by Maple Leaf Sports entertainment. Well the lions are owned privately and has Deep Pockets
Montreal!!!*
Can't go global calling your sport "football" especially in England. Need to change the name.
“Gridiron football” is what they call it in other smaller leagues, I’d imagine a similar name change would be necessary across the board.
I have a football podcast. I would love for you to be a gurst on my show
Portland will never get a team
I wouldn't say that just yet. Anything is possible.
