In all honesty they should just redo the NFL Europe league, and let every squad have a minor league partner.

If they expand to Istanbul, they can then claim three continents for NFL football. Look for the Istanbul Turks at a stadium near you.

Not many good free agents will be willing to go play in Europe. Those teams will just end up being practice squads for the real NFL teams.

I don't like most NFL proposals. Seventeen game season, Overseas regular sea son games and now this expansion proposal. The only thing that I see as a positive is the salary cap growing enough to pay Mahomes as well as put quality pieces around him.

Plus, no one is going to watch the Portland Panhandlers get beat 12 or more times a year.

They could put another franchise in Rome and easily generate one of the NFL's most intense rivalries.

Rain Man 03-31-2023 01:19 PM
Given the number of NFL players from Samoa and Tonga, they should put a couple of franchises in those places.

That's what I was thinking. Mahomes/Reid have shown they can win it without a loaded roster. The rest of the league, not really.

Actually I'm re-thinking this. If the sport legitimately were to take off in Europe, or worse yet worldwide, there could be a big influx of NFL talent that would actually make the league more competitive. So I'm gonna veto this change since we're already winning Super Bowls all the time.

You realize it’s a zero sum game?

So this is after they just added a 2cd Thursday night game for teams. Which is probably heading to 2 bye weeks and another week of regular season games.

Austin is surprisingly large, or El Paso, or Portland.

So I don't know why they don't expand more in America.
The issue is that yes if they do 4 Euro teams they will have to do 4 more closer because you can't have 5 divisions and 4 divisions it has to match up..that probably leads to realignment as well.

But some of these cities are gonna be non starters, the Cowboys and Texans will go apeshit about another team in Texas just like Buffalo wants nothing to do with a team in Toronto.

Mexico City though is basically a lock.
