REALIGNING THE NFL DIVISIONS

I recently made a video talking about the playoff format and division winners, and I decided to piggyback off of that video and realign every division in the NFL. Tune in to see if your team will have a new division rival. Make sure you like and subscribe for some more sick ass content.

What I would do is place Baltimore in the AFC East, Miami in the AFC south, Indianapolis in the AFC North, Dallas in the NFC south, and Carolina in the NFC east.

[@CodyAdams-gh5gs]

And end the Steelers Baltimore rivalry? I think not sir

[@craiglasky1884]

Exactly, all you have to do is switch 2 teams in each conference. In the AFC; Miami moves to the South, Indianapolis joins the Bills, Jets and Patriots and becomes the new AFC North. The old AFC north becomes the new AFC East. In the NFC, Dallas and Carolina switch divisions.

[@choosecarefully408]

Are you my Evil Twin or am I yours? Actually, people who like having rivalries will adjust to the new divisional rivals, so one can even make it more geographically sensible because Houston & Dallas are in WAY different parts of Texas & can switch conferences. I honestly don't get the whole rivalry BS. The Cowboys have bigger rivalries with Green Bay &/or San-Fran than anyone ion their division & no FLA team has _any_ real rivalry with any other team. They feel so dislocated from the East teams.

I literally made a NFL realignment that is 100% the same I post it on Facebook on a Sports Debate group like 3 years ago!! I’m kinda impressed that we both thought the same. I got so much hate for it though.

[@oldguysrock2170]

The NFL for decades, had Atlanta and New Orleans in the NFC West with SF and LA Rams. Being a 49ers fan, it was hard to get excited about playing the Falcons and Saints twice every year. The NFL had some real clowns running the league for a long time.

[@adamwhitney8526]

Your realignment isn't bad, however, I wouldn't make as many changes. In my opinion there only needs to be five teams moved. Swap Dallas and Carolina. Amazingly simple. Next is a three team shuffle. Move Miami to the AFC South, Indianapolis to the AFC North and Baltimore to the AFC East. This would make the most geographic sense while trying to maintain most of the leagues longtime rivalries.

[@MrHam-sk3kr]

you missed the part where he said assuming league history is erased so there would be no rivalries. Still this is a good idea for the current nfl, except maybe not Dallas, bc in the current nfl dallas v philly, ny, and washington are all massive rivalries

[@michaelluzecky4026]

[@206Minotaur]

Even historically speaking....this actually still makes sense. The ONLY change I would make is swapping Philly and Pittsburgh, just to keep the Steelers and Ravens together. And they're both from Pennsylvania, so it's not too much of a shakeup

[@ryanwestmoreland9827]

I completely agree with the idea of an NFL realignment, but in reality we all know that would never happen

[@stewartbuford9033]

1st move I would make is Dallas & Carolina swap. How did Dallas get in the NFC East? Makes absolutely no sense!

[@TheMrPeteChannel]

Back in the 60's Dallas was horrible. The NFL thought by them playing the old established east coast teams would help them with attendance and viewership. It worked.

[@michaelluzecky4026]

I thought the same thing

[@xnvaznx]

​@@TheMrPeteChannelWhy doesn't the NFL continue to do this for newer expansion franchises? This realignment makes better sense in that regard as well.

[@secondguess3128]

Here's why pairing up geographical rivals in the same divisions will never happen: TV rights held by multiple networks. With Fox essentially holding NFC rights, and CBS with the AFC, there is no advantage to either network in having shared markets in the same conference; and neither would a network kiss off markets like New York or L.A. Same applies to markets in close proximity, like Dallas-Houston, Washington-Baltimore and Miami-Tampa Bay (the reason why the Texans expanded to the AFC, even though a vacancy was in the other conference) -- although Chicago-Green Bay would appear to be an exception to the rule, most likely because it's the oldest rivalry in the league, and Green Bay/Milwaukee is not exactly a prime market. If you look at the original merger, which required 3 NFC teams to switch conferences, it was orchestrated by CBS, which held NFC rights at the time. It had teams that shared cities or states in NY, LA, SF, St. Louis and Dallas, and wasn't about to surrender markets like Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit and Atlanta. I believe expansion teams were off the table, and moving Baltimore was a no-brainer (Washington was and still is the bigger city) -- which left only Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Green Bay as the remaining candidates. I suspect the Packers having won 5 championships during the previous decade was the main reason they stayed, and the Browns and Steelers switched over.

That’s the only part that would be missing in this realignment is the rivalries between the Cowboys and Eagles. Then again, you can hate a team from a different division if you played them in an NFC championship or AFC championship game and lost to them or something. Aka: Vikings vs Saints, Bengals vs Chiefs, Niners vs Cowboys, Niners vs Eagles, Steelers vs Patriots, Colts vs Patriots. Heck, even Cowboys and Steelers fans hate each other’s teams from back when they faced each other in a Super Bowl. It’s not all about division rivalries that keep rivalries alive.

-Would save on air travel -Players would get more family time -New and better rivalries -Monotony break up New Rivalries = 2 games a year + potential playoff games -Giants vs Jets -Rams vs Chargers -Ravens vs Commanders -Dolphins vs Bucs -Cowboys vs Texans -Giants vs Patriots -Jaguars vs Dolphins/Bucs Plus all kinds of new possible playoff battles between teams that previously had to meet in the SB to compete in a playoff game. The only downside I’ve seen (because I’ve been messing with this myself since way back in the 90s) Is potential gang violence. Back in the 1930s gangs formed and murders happened in a relatively small German city over the Adidas vs Puma rivalry. The Dassler brothers were founders of each shoe brand. Point being that people will cliq up and get violent over anything. I’d guess NFL team loyalty would be no different. In the past I’ve wondered if the NFL has purposely separated the Jets & Giants, 49ers & Raiders (Oakland) for this very reason. Or maybe separating the local franchises to where the only play once every 3 years (4 years now) allows ppl to be a fan of both (increasing merch revenue and ticket sales). Overall I love what you’ve done here. I wish it would happen.

[@michaelluzecky4026]

I agree that while we should have changes to some teams in the divisions, I don’t think teams flipping conferences is a good idea. I think it would be cool to have Cowboys and Texans in a division, or Steelers and Eagles or even Commies and Ravens. Then again, it would be better to have the same teams in the same conferences, even with a division realignment. That way, the Steelers vs Ravens rivalry doesn’t die out entirely, for example, as they would both still be AFC teams.

[@jibbjabb43]

Realistically, smaller divisions is probably better than larger ones. The only benefit to large division is that you play more of the same teams annually, but for a league that doesn't play every team every year, or even close, you don't really want the lack of consistent cross division play, nor the hazardous makeshift schedule.

Something like this could actually benefit the league financially (which is all they fucking care about) because the rivalries would be so much intense, lots more potential for fan involvement and attendance.

Geoprahic realignment doesn't make all that much sense anyway, particularly if you retain conferences(and also, east/west conferences also suck).

The point of divisions should be to find the balance between rivalry and geography.

​@fireyfan25 Geography isn't really that relevant because the notion of one city 'hating' another isn't typically all that functional. If you're collaborating with all major US sports to try and pair consistent rivals, then geography matters a bit more, but rivalries struggle to develop if competitive pressure isn't really there.
