Who will be in Los Angeles?

I can see with different owners but LA fans didnt support them or they would never have left in the first place -- NFL owners should consider or even poll LA fans and ask which of the 3 they would actually support

To be fair, the Rams also ended up moving out of LA because their owner threatened to sue the league and owners if they didn't okay the move.

I think a more interesting question is where will the team(s) relocate after the LA project fails again.

Why would one move to the NFC? The Chargers-Broncos-Chiefs-Raiders is clearly one of those old AFL combinations the NFL has tried to keep together since the merger.


The only divisional realignment would be if someone much further east - like Jacksonville - had moved to LA...then likely the Rams would have just been moved into the AFC South.

I don't think they'd have two teams from the same city in the same division. It'd be a weird setup with the Chiefs making two separate trips to LA per year to play in the same stadium, not to mention the Chargers and Raiders playing each other twice a year and just switching locker rooms. It's not the best way to sell tickets either, as the teams would have virtually the same schedule (though there would be home/away differences). I just can't see the NFL doing that

The talk all along has been that one of the teams would have to switch divisions/conferences, but I've not heard that the NFL has addressed it. Of course they wouldn't address it until it was official anyway.

I know it's a different sport so much different circumstances, but it's not like LA isn't used to 2 teams playing in the same division and the same building since the Clippers and Lakers do so.
