why

[cnc66]

why is a good question, but I do like how you have them arrainged.

[UCFinfan86]

why

Because i was bored + It makes more sense except for the old rivalries

Geographically.... maybe.
but you're switching AFC & NFC teams along with killing those rivalries you spoke of, and I don't think that equates to a better league.

I know, thats why i think if weren't already set rivalries it would work. I know i would love to be in a divison with Jax, Atl, and TB. It'd be like Florida bragging rights. Same with like Houston and Dallas when they play every year.

The divisions need to never be touched. It was better with the 3 divisions because that way you usually didn't have those 9-7 or 10-6 division winners that you get a lot now-a-days. I can deal with the way it is now but if they ever change it again, I'll be mad.

2 NY teams in the same conference? never happens....business wise its suicide

[Rocky Raccoon]

too much conference switching IMO.

[GoBills24]

2 NY teams in the same conference? never happens....business wise its suicide

Actually, there's only one NY team in there, the Bills.

Oh yeah, and the 2 Jersey teams.

Buffalo and Jets???

[NJFINSFAN1]

Sorry UC, but a bad plan.

[Slappy8800]

AFC East
New York Jets
Buffalo Bills
New York Giants
New England Patriots


yes i get it the giants and jets play in nj...i live 10 minutes from the stadium...har dee har har

[Mindwarp]

also you have Philly in a north and Cincy in an East you should switch thouse.. Philly is more east then Cincy :wink:

[unifiedtheory]

Anything that involves losing division rivals (Buffalo, Jets or Pats) I want no part of...

It took decades to create the GREAT rivalries the NFL has now. Destroying that for the sake of "geographical" alignment makes no snese to me.

[Mike13]

Yeah, why mess up rivalries?

[DolfanDaveInATX]

Pure geographical alignment like this kills TV ratings, and those are the geese that lay the NFL's golden eggs.

[Roman529]

I remember when the San Francisco 49ers and Atlanta Falcons were in the same division. :lol:

If we were in the NFC we would have a shot at the playoffs still. :rolleyes:
