Closer teams might promote more rivalry?

Closer divisions promote travel by opposing teams fans.

Dropped the ball there

>>64937419
That Seattle/Denver/KC/Arizona division is way too overpowered lol.

Meanwhile Dallas somehow gets an even more underwhelming division and California/Florida gets to put 2 terrible teams in the playoffs every year.

0/10 would not approve.

>>64937423
>Vikings Broncos Seahawks Chiefs
Division of death right there

>>64937476
New league format. Scramble playoffs. Conferences abolished for 2016 season. Best 8 teams go to playoffs, top 4 get byes, bottom 4 play 4 wild card teams. (other teams with best records)

Green Bay might play Minnesota in a superbowl
Steelers might play Ravens
Seahawks might play Cardinals
Denver might play Newengland

>>64937211
With the NFC West actually in the west, we are now all good.

.... wait a minute, did they PLAN this?

>>64937524

i would actually be fine with this. playing 15 different opponents would increase parity and entropy, while a table format (eliminating overtime games) would reduce risk analysis

>>64937566
>Roger Goodell shitposting

>>64937566
Leaves Bucs, raiders, niners and browns as wandering nomadic tribes.

>>64937568
The only reason to have these circled divisions would be to have a rule that 1 of those 4 teams is guaranteed a playoff spot (so at least each broad geographic area of the US has a team in the hunt for merchandising reasons)

So it would be division leaders (best record in the 8 divisions) then the other 4 best teams from across the country.

it would be cool if the NFL did this just one year to test it out. Or scrambled the divisions every 5 years or something

>>64937482
Should the NFL re-calibrate divisions so that there is an equal spread of good teams vs bad teams?

But keeping a bum in each division (looking at you Cleveland) artificially inflates how good the other teams in their divisions look.

>>64937728
yeah I think thats exactly what they do, a big reason why the divisions are they way they are now.

If a major realignment comes, it will only be for balance reasons. There is no reason to end long standing rivalries like Cowboys/Gnats or Baltimore/Pit.

However the Clots and New England should be put into the same division. It would make a natural rivalry and also "strengthen" their schedules a bit in theory.

>>64937862
The Bengals and Titans do not scare me for the forseeable future, and The Colts ownership is actually retarded.
I would never leave the AFC best though senpai.

>>64937899
>AFC best
>only division with zero Super Bowls since realignment

Jesus Christ

>>64937878
Though it would be great to see a scrambled division season for some wild playoff match-ups and a possible pair of NFC or AFC rivals making it to the Superb Owl.

Could you imagine a Cowboys Niners superbowl? Or a Steelers Ravens one?
It would be a bloodbath.

Steelers and Ravens moved to NFC in this map too.

Could you imagine this division. The fans are awful, and the cities are all within driving distance. I'd expect at least 10 people stabbed per game.

>>64937998
Well it would be a home division game for their opponent too, so.....

>>64937988
I get your point m8, but I put them with the packers and bears for "muh history", had to switch some people or it would be a waste

Still be owned by the Steelers.

>>64937998
You... do realize I was talking Rams vs. 49ers, right? Not Rams vs. Chargers or anything, assuming the Chargers would even move in with the Rams? And that the way thing are currently set up the Rams and the 49ers are in the same division anyway?

Ravens and Redskins in the same division would be pretty intense. During one of the first ever home games the Ravens played at Memorial Stadium they put up the out of town scores and the 'skins were losing. When the crowd started cheering Art Model asked why. The people with him from the city told him that most people from Baltimore have a huge chip on their shoulder because of how the NFL just thought that we should all become Washington fans after the Colts left.

The next day Model contacted Tagliabue and asked if it would be possible to have the Ravens switch to the NFC when the inevitable realignment happened. Tagliabue told him to forget it.
