You forgot to put the Bengals somewhere. And since you also forgot Kentucky that would probably be it, Especially since Browns fans always make that joke.
Hot take: Wyoming should get the Bills (state full of buffalo), Chargers should move to Alabama (Birmingham Bolts has a nice ring to it) and the Colts should move from the South back to the East. I went into detail in another comment as to where the teams should go.
As a New Mexican, moving the fuckin Cowboys, of all teams, into NM, and then not choosing the cultural and economic hub of the state (Albuquerque) has filled me with an inexplicable rage

I used to think about this a lot, but then I realized this concept is kind of just College Football. Every state has a team, bigger states have multiple teams in different major cities, with various regions grouped together. Teams are more about the location as opposed to the team itself (Ohio State will always be Ohio, the Dolphins are only Miami because they play in Miami and nothing is stopping them from just going somewhere else). Teams represent state pride and form rivalries with neighboring states. Etc.
As an Iowa resident, I feel I could really get behind a team called the Iowa Eagles, though I think they'd be more likely to end up being based in Des Moines than any where else in the state. Besides, I think the Iowa Hawkeyes are far too popular in my hometown of Iowa City to make accommodating a NFL team here viable. However, our one-and-only suburb of of Coralville is getting an AIF indoor football team that starts playing next year, which is pretty exciting.
I did the same thing a few months ago. This is what I came up with. Arizona- Keeping the Cardinals California- Keeping the 49ers Colorado- Keeping the Broncos Florida- Keeping the Buccaneers Georgia- Keeping the Falcons Hawaii- Getting the Dolphins Illinois- Keeping the Bears Indiana- Keeping the Colts Iowa- Getting the Bangles Kansas- Getting the Chiefs (They currently plan on the MO Side of KC) Louisiana-Keeping the Saints Maryland- Keeping the Ravens Massachusetts- Keeping the Patriots Michigan- Keeping the Lions Minnesota- Keeping the Vikings Mississippi- Getting the Jaguars Missouri- Getting the Rams back New Jersey- Keeping/Getting Jets (They are now the NJ Jets like they already should be) New Mexico- Getting the Cowboys New York- Getting/Keeping the Giants (The Giants now ACTUALLY play in NY) North Carolina- Keeping the Panthers North Dakota- Getting the Chargers Ohio- Keeping the Browns Oklahoma- Getting the Bills Pennsylvania- Keeping the Eagles Tennessee- Keeping the Titans Texas- Keeping the Texans Virginia- Keeping the Commanders Washington- Keeping the Seahawks West Virginia- Getting the Steelers Wisconsin- Keeping the Packers Now let's make new teams to give to each remaining State Alabama- Huntsville Rocketeers (Named from the city's nickname of rocket city do to its history of aerospace technology) Alaska- Alaska Malamutes (A reference to the Alaska state dog and the state's history of dog sledding) Arkansas- Arkansas Diamond Heads (Not the best, but it references Arkansas having the world's only public diamond mine) Connecticut- Connecticut Colonials (Referencing the states rich history) Delaware- Wilmington Crabbers (Referencing that the state has the largest population of Horseshoe crabs in the world. Yes I know Horseshoe Crabs aren't true crabs, just roll with it) Idaho- Boise Bluebirds (A reference to the state bird) Kentucky- Louisville Mustangs (A type of horse because of the Kentucky Derby) Maine- Lewiston Lobsters (this should be obvious) Montana- Billings Grizzlies (Montana's State Animal) Nebraska- Nebraska Prairie Hawks (Not technically right, but it sounds better than prairie falcons) New Hampshire- Manchester Maple Trees (State is known for maple syrup) Oregon- Portland Pioneers (Both a reference to the Oregon Trail and Madden 24) Rhode Island- Providence Clams (State is known for its clams) South Carolina- Charleston Cheetahs (I wanted to keep the big cat theme to have some parallel with NC) South Dakota- Sioux Falls Pheasants (State bird and I couldn't think of anything better that rolled off the tongue well.)

I made a comment similar to yours and now that I think of it, I think I like moving the Dolphins to Hawaii and keeping the Eagles in Pennsylvania. WV has a large steel industry as well and would make sense there. I had the Bills move to Wyoming because of the buffalo population, Cowboys in Oklahoma (Cowboy state), Chargers in Alabama (Birmingham Bolts just sounds nice). I think I’d amend my choice for the Jags to Mississippi as opposed to South Carolina
I think Arkansas could be the Little Rock diamonds, don’t think you need diamond heads, sometimes simple is better. Alternatively you could keep the iconic college mascot with the Arkansas razorbacks
I think it would make even more sense tho to keep the eagles in Philly, one of the biggest citites in the country, and instead relocate the Steelers to West Virginia, where like half of their fans are already from anyway.
I think the New Mexico NFL Team should be called The Albuquerque Roadrunners, and their division should be in the AFC West, and the Teams colors would be Red and Yellow.
Missed opportunity to bring back the Louisville Colonels, Hartford Blues and Providence Steamrollers from the 1920s NFL. The Steamrollers even won the NFL championship in 1928.
There's a great city nerd video where he goes over cities that are under and over represented in professional sports leagues, he used population stats to decide what places need more. Definitely worth a watch if that sort of thing interests you
Another poorly researched video! 2:56 The 49ers are NOT in San Francisco anymore! They play in a garbage San JOSE suburb! And did you forget about UFL teams like St. Louis and Birmingham? Not to mention calling the Mississippi team Buffalo City! Ignorance is, ignorance does!
I don't think I want a 50-team NFL, but I respect the dude that is a Chiefs fan. ALEX SMITH IS A 3-TIME PRO-BOWLER THANKS TO ANDY REID, HOT ON THE HEALS OF FRICKIN' TODD HALEY AND ROMEO CRENNEL. THAT'S SEXY, DAMNIT.
Ok so I need an explanation being from Mississippi....I noticed on some teams you moved to other states you put them in actual cities in those states like Sioux City, Iowa for the Eagles and Santa Fe, New Mexico for the Cowboys. Why did the Bills who you had move to Mississippi get call "Buffalo City"? There is no such city in Mississippi called Buffalo City...so either 1. You don't know any cities in Mississippi, and didn't bother to look them up (Biloxi being the obvious choice....**Biloxi Bills**) or 2. You wanted to keep the name "Buffalo" in the title. Which in that case makes no sense, because you took the only ACTUAL team that is in New York out of New York.
I'm a Vikings fan and I lived in Phoenix for a few years. There was a great bar called Four Peaks that was founded by a guy from Minnesota, so he turned it into a Vikings bar. I actually still miss hanging out there now that I'm back in the midwest.
I'm thrilled you gave Rochester, New Hampshire a team but I would have gone with "Rochester Royals". Or if you wanted an animal mascot, "Portsmouth Porcupines" 😂
I am really thinking about petitioning to have the titans renamed to the tennessee trash pandas. Our mascot is already a racoon and it would make sense given the fact we are swimming in garbage so far.
@@silverback7675 - Because the Rams should have never left L.A./Anaheim to begin with! And for that matter, the Cardinals should have never left St. Louis!
As a D.C. resident, I have never been so offended. Not only do we pay the same over-inflated taxes, pay the same higher-than-average grocery and gas prices, have NO representation in Congress, and live in the SAME crime-ridden capitol, but then you're gonna take away the REDSKINS from us, TOO? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I remember asking my coworkers would they rather have a true "National" Football League where each named US state/territory gets a team (potentially with a restructuring of divisions), OR a developed "International" Football League where 32 out-of-country teams are made with the same division structure that the NFL has today and after each has had their Superbowl there would be one more game that would be the ultimate world championship. The answer was harder for them to choose than they thought, so I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking about stuff like this. xD Edit: Maine's should have been Moose or Lobster related. Hell, if you wanted alliteration, the Portland Pines would've worked too
NFL is fine as it is, though the Jaguars should be in St. Louis. The European League of Football (ELF) is fine too, though they lack a team in England.
Oklahoma State would probably veto a pro team called the Cowboys. Miami can get away with calling themselves after the University of Jacksonville's mascot since the latter isn't anyway close to being a "big boy" school in the NCAA.
Oh Utahns would be brutal. There's already a lot of people in Utah (and eastern Idaho, for that matter) who already don't like USC, but his antics just make it worse for him. Zach Wilson on the other hand...
Utah will have to settle for the UFL for now. Unfortunately, the Stallions name is taken (the name of Utah's AAF team). But hey, I hear Coyotes is available!
Whole list of problems. FAR too many to list. Not going to bother. We dont need 50 teams However, the next logical step is an 8 team expansion to bring it to 40. However, If they do it, the NFL is infinitely more likely to give 4 of those teams across Europe, 2 for Canada (1 AFC/1NFC) and 2 for Mexico (same). This satisfies their push into foreign markets and making NFL football an international game which is also the next most logical step. But there are a lot of other variables that go into NFL teams and there are clearly consistent rules internally. The NFL strives for things like parity and symmetry. For example the AFC Raiders vs NFC Buccaneers, 2 pirate themed teams. Then there are an even number of "flying" teams between Cards, Falcons, Ravens, Jets, Eagles, Seahawks. Pairings like Saints Vs Vikings, which are for the humanoid wing which is too many to list. Youl see other similar groupings like Cats with Jags and Bengals in AFC and Lions and Panthers in NFC. So the NFL Likes to utilize these connections. They will continue to make them. For example, the NFL WANTS a team named Sharks or Whales so it pairs/contrasts with Dolphins as they are the only aquatic team so far. So for example you could see an Oregon team named the whales and if you dont know the history its definitely worth learning the connections between Florence Oregon and whales. Its well known the NFL wants to push into Europe now and its almost as well known that they want that strong instant partnership with Jaguar automotive, So they will likely find a way to relocate the Jaguars to England (Sometimes they will go against their own patterns if they find something else more important, Like realigning the entire league after expansion but still leaving the cowboys in the NFC east)
If they go to Canada, it will have to be places that the CFL don't exist in. Canadian government will VENOMOUSLY oppose the NFL invading their country. The NFC East is definitely going to be the Euro division, and no, the Jaguars aren't moving there. What proof do you even have about certain team names split 50/50?
Im so happy you picked my home city of Rochester, NH, but there would (theoretically) be a lot more attention/focus and space if it were in Manchester, NH.
I'm a football fan, and I disagree about how "they" are more passionate about college football than pro football. A lot of it is that college sports is part of the school, which many are part of that state education system, so they can't relocate because of wanting citizens to pay for a new stadium as opposed to pro sports. I would also use knights, fire, cougars, rush (flowing water), wolves, ducks, horned frogs, and dragons (Komodo dragon).
The Steelers could be WV and then Eagles can stay in PA, though DE is a fine fit for the Eagles considering that's what people there support, largely, and their biggest city (Wilmington) is just urban sprawl of Philly anyways. I also feel like it could have taken some teams from college in the states that are crazy for those teams or are just prolific, like Alabama or Iowa.
I think Oregon should have the Eagles. Here is my reasoning... Our 2 major college football teams are the University of Oregon Ducks and Oregon State University Beaver Both teams having to do with the water and one a bird that spends most of its time in or around the water while Eagles also spend much of their time near the water
The Patriots should change. You made a point of saying the Carolina Panthers now belong to South Carolina. I assume you want the Patriots to be the Massachusetts Patriots. New England to Massachusetts is more of a change than Carolina to South Carolina.
Apparently, Foxboro is not a suburb of Boston. Foxboro is closer to Providence, Rhode Island. But of course, Foxboro is part of the Boston metro. No doubt, if more New England states got teams, then it probably would help to have the Patriots as Massachusetts.
@@psychopathyoutubeemployees280 I mean caliboy wasn't being political. It's just a meme. Also, you missed my point. Arizona's only had 1 team, so it should remain the Cards, while obviously the Rams wouldn't be the pick for California, so they should go back to St Louis
As someone who lives in Anchorage we would never call our team the Yetis. There are so many better names, also it would Alaska not Anchorage. Alaska Grizzlies Alaska Borealis Alaska Magpies Alaska Wolves Alaska Gold Alaska Freeze Alaska Glaciers Alaska Pioneers Alaska Orcas Alaska Volcanoes Alaska Quake Alaska Bush Pilots Personally I would go with the Alaska Pioneers or Alaska Gold.
Montana has so many better mascot choices. Also elk is already singular and plural, no need for the S. At the end of the video, you mention you grew up watching Alex Smith and Kareem Hunt.... Fuck, you made me feel old, and I'm 26.
You just insulted the entire state of West Virginia by that just go with a mountaineer or something. Also put it in like the big cities not Beckley Beckley is basically irrelevant. If you said this in the 80s I would’ve been fine with it because that was a popular city back in the 80s But why why did you go deadly now you should’ve gone with Charleston or Morgantown or Huntington you had so many options go mountaineers I wouldn’t I wouldn’t have cared if you said like the West Virginia coal miners I get the revolutionary, but we did rebel from Virginia. You could’ve did something with Hills or mountains. You could done so many other things.
Wyoming for the Chargers? They might gain some fans. lmao Chargers Bills to Mississippi? This is an outrage! Giants move to Connecticut and will still be called the New York Giants. The Eagles move to Camden and stay Philadelphia. The New Jersey Jets they go to New Hampshire. New Hampshire Jets. (Could have been the Hartford Copperheads. or just be the Hartford Whalers. Ozark Foxes is awesome Delaware White Caps after the ocean waves Idaho Commies are the Redskins again and move to Boise Rams go back to St. Louis or just have them be the Battlehawks. Birmingham gets the Stallions from the UFL Elks is cool. Just call it the Montana Elks Omaha Cowboys Des Moines Brahmas (also from UFL) Oklahoma Oilers (Oklahoma City) Mississippi Biloxi Filibusters (after the US raiders who raided Cuba and the like from the Southeast cost) Carolina Buccaneers (will play in Charleston) Panthers play in North Carolina Burlington Mountaineers Charleston Bandits Virginia Royals Maine Caribou

Alaska- Alaska Malamutes (A reference to the Alaska state dog and the state's history of dog sledding)
Arkansas- Arkansas Diamond Heads (Not the best, but it references Arkansas having the world's only public diamond mine)

Kentucky- Louisville Mustangs (A type of horse because of the Kentucky Derby)
Maine- Lewiston Lobsters (this should be obvious)
Montana- Billings Grizzlies (Montana's State Animal)
Nebraska- Nebraska Prairie Hawks (Not technically right, but it sounds better than prairie falcons)
New Hampshire- Manchester Maple Trees (State is known for maple syrup)
Oregon- Portland Pioneers (Both a reference to the Oregon Trail and Madden 24)

South Carolina- Charleston Cheetahs (I wanted to keep the big cat theme to have some parallel with NC)

Utah- Salt Lake City Prophets (Was going for a reference to the states large LDS [Mormon] Population)
Vermont- Burlington Brewers (State known for craft beer)
Wyoming- Wyoming Bullfighters ( A reference to the states propensity for rodeos)

LOVED the video! and ur presentation style is 👌
HATED his lack of research!
GOOD JOB DUDE
7:00 Rochester Warriors…
I figured you’d have picked Concord or Manchester, not Rochester.
Can’t complain about my hometown being picked though…
Why move the panthers to SC? They’re based in Charolette which is in NC?
Great video tho
Personally I’d of kept the panthers in nc and move the jags to sc
@@gammaalphasigma5558 - You mentioning about the stupidity of putting the Panthers in South Carolina is the reason this is NOT a great video!
Im so happy you picked my home city of Rochester, NH, but there would (theoretically) be a lot more attention/focus and space if it were in Manchester, NH.
Glad the algorithm chose this for me. You definitely need to do this for the other big 3 sports!
@@Bex25 Basketball, Baseball, and Hockey I’m assuming?
@@Knuthh yeah probably not soccer
@@michael7054 - And why not soccer?
After how poorly researched this video is, no.
Any list that puts the BILLS (only team actually in NY) elsewhere, is a joke.
Bandwagon fan
Choosing the broncos is the ultimate South Dakota team decision
As a resident of CT, choosing Manchester over Hartford and New Haven is wild
hartford whalers return as a football team
Now they gotta make 2 or 3 leagues with the nfl being the top league and the others being a promotion and relegation system
Bills to Vermont makes more sense
Next thing you know, Illinois might want a team.
Welp, I guess I'm moving to Iowa and teaching them how to make a Philly Cheesesteak.
Cowboys leaving is crazy
He obviously doesn't want to make money if he thinks the Texans are the money draw!
Love this video idea, I am from Seattle and I am a Huge Lions fan
Why do we have to be “Prisoners” my guy?
Kentucky Colonels, amirite?
Kentucky Bengals, Louisville Bengals, Lexington Bengals, Covington Bengals, Newport Bengals, Frankfort Bengals
@@michael7054 its honestly all good.
@@JohnCornette kentucky sanders after the col and name deoin coach
Then the NFL season would be way longer 🥰 i love football
Good vid, yet I’m a bills fan and that picture in your room makes me cry
I wish North Dakota had a professional teams but that will never happen
Get more people to immigrant to your state and maybe someday you'll get one.
Chargers moving to Wyoming means they have a chance to have actual home games
I'm a football fan, and I disagree about how "they" are more passionate about college football than pro football. A lot of it is that college sports is part of the school, which many are part of that state education system, so they can't relocate because of wanting citizens to pay for a new stadium as opposed to pro sports.
I would also use knights, fire, cougars, rush (flowing water), wolves, ducks, horned frogs, and dragons (Komodo dragon).
The Steelers could be WV and then Eagles can stay in PA, though DE is a fine fit for the Eagles considering that's what people there support, largely, and their biggest city (Wilmington) is just urban sprawl of Philly anyways. I also feel like it could have taken some teams from college in the states that are crazy for those teams or are just prolific, like Alabama or Iowa.
I'm a Broncos fan from New England.
I’m a chargers fan as an Iowan
In my opinion, Idaho should’ve been the Boise Spuds
I think Oregon should have the Eagles. Here is my reasoning... Our 2 major college football teams are the
University of Oregon Ducks and
Oregon State University Beaver
Both teams having to do with the water and one a bird that spends most of its time in or around the water while Eagles also spend much of their time near the water
0:20
That's because it's America's Team
That doesn't make any sense. Some states have multiple teams, you just can't shuffle them around. 50 states, 64 teams. You might get away with that.
Which dorm is that? I lived in Matthews my first two years at SDSU and that looks very familiar
This list sucks
yees bro
The Patriots should change. You made a point of saying the Carolina Panthers now belong to South Carolina. I assume you want the Patriots to be the Massachusetts Patriots. New England to Massachusetts is more of a change than Carolina to South Carolina.
Apparently, Foxboro is not a suburb of Boston. Foxboro is closer to Providence, Rhode Island. But of course, Foxboro is part of the Boston metro. No doubt, if more New England states got teams, then it probably would help to have the Patriots as Massachusetts.
Wyoming Cheyenne gonna be lit
Curious there are no Grizzly Bear teams
This is stupid
I can't fathom why you wouldn't just put the Rams in St Louis and the Eagles in Wilmington Delaware. Very uh interesting choice lol
Come on, man! (Wilmington Biden joke)
@caliboy09 - Do not bring politics into this!
Rams should have never left L.A./Anaheim to begin with. Cardinals should have never moved to Arizona.
@@psychopathyoutubeemployees280 I mean caliboy wasn't being political. It's just a meme. Also, you missed my point. Arizona's only had 1 team, so it should remain the Cards, while obviously the Rams wouldn't be the pick for California, so they should go back to St Louis
As someone who lives in Anchorage we would never call our team the Yetis. There are so many better names, also it would Alaska not Anchorage.
Alaska Grizzlies
Alaska Borealis
Alaska Magpies
Alaska Wolves
Alaska Gold
Alaska Freeze
Alaska Glaciers
Alaska Pioneers
Alaska Orcas
Alaska Volcanoes
Alaska Quake
Alaska Bush Pilots
Personally I would go with the Alaska Pioneers or Alaska Gold.
Bills needed to be in like Montana or one of the Dakotas
What is thisciyy choice
Bill should go to Connecticut
Great video
Horrible video!
Montana has so many better mascot choices. Also elk is already singular and plural, no need for the S.
At the end of the video, you mention you grew up watching Alex Smith and Kareem Hunt.... Fuck, you made me feel old, and I'm 26.
I'm forever heartbroken you took the Chiefs away from the important Kansas City... 😢
This great
Agree to disagree.
Sioux City reference my city might not be that irrelevant
Man, get ready for some awful QB play in some, maybe most, of those games every week!
can't take the lions out of the NFC, they were there pre merger... take those giants schmucks instead
Very fun idea, good video!
He needed to do a better job researching the material though.
You just insulted the entire state of West Virginia by that just go with a mountaineer or something. Also put it in like the big cities not Beckley Beckley is basically irrelevant. If you said this in the 80s I would’ve been fine with it because that was a popular city back in the 80s But why why did you go deadly now you should’ve gone with Charleston or Morgantown or Huntington you had so many options go mountaineers I wouldn’t I wouldn’t have cared if you said like the West Virginia coal miners I get the revolutionary, but we did rebel from Virginia. You could’ve did something with Hills or mountains. You could done so many other things.
what about broncos' fans in south Dakota also the NFL needs expansion maybe even in Europe but other American cities for sure.
Europe already has the ELF, but of course, that won't stop the NFL from raiding their league in the future.
What does the Ozark Fox fan say?

I hope you know the chiefs should be 7-8
Still Go Patriots ❤️💙
why tf are you taking the better PA team, the Eagles and moving them to Iowa? If you are going to move the Birds move them to DE
Steelers won 6 super bowls though
Wyoming for the Chargers? They might gain some fans. lmao Chargers
Bills to Mississippi? This is an outrage! Giants move to Connecticut and will still be called the New York Giants. The Eagles move to Camden and stay Philadelphia. The New Jersey Jets they go to New Hampshire. New Hampshire Jets. (Could have been the Hartford Copperheads. or just be the Hartford Whalers.
Ozark Foxes is awesome
Delaware White Caps after the ocean waves
Idaho Commies are the Redskins again and move to Boise
Rams go back to St. Louis or just have them be the Battlehawks.
Birmingham gets the Stallions from the UFL
Elks is cool. Just call it the Montana Elks
Omaha Cowboys
Des Moines Brahmas (also from UFL)
Oklahoma Oilers (Oklahoma City)
Mississippi Biloxi Filibusters (after the US raiders who raided Cuba and the like from the Southeast cost)
Carolina Buccaneers (will play in Charleston)
Panthers play in North Carolina
Burlington Mountaineers
Charleston Bandits
Virginia Royals
Maine Caribou
