This is what they possibly have:

AFC North
Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers
AFC South
Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars, Tennessee Titans
AFC East
Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, New York Jets
AFC West
Denver Broncos, Kansas City Chiefs, Oakland Raiders, San Diego Chargers
NFC North
Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings
NFC South
Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
NFC East
Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Redskins
NFC West
Arizona Cardinals, St. Louis Rams, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks

First of all... Indy in the AFC South and Miami in the East. I mean, HOW MUCH MORE SOUTH can you get then Miami?

Yeah I agree. Miami should be in the AFC South and Indianapolis should be in the AFC East.

When I saw you put, "Nuts" in the thread I thought it was much worse than that, hehe. But everything else they have listed there is okay.

clickin on ur link...the headline is that the chargers might be headed to the NFC...oh please God no

second of all, id like to complain about the recent situations in both cleveland and houston...why take the browns and oilers out of their respective cities, move them to baltimore and tennessee, change their names, then put new teams back in cleveland and houston!!???!!...why not leave the teams where they were and put the expansion teams in baltimore and tennessee??!!??...its just better for the game that way...i know the teams each have different owners who can move them to different cities and such, but why mess with the game like this...now in 20 years when a child in cleveland is learning about the history of his favorite team, he will be way confused when someone tells him the cleveland browns of 1989 are different then the cleveland browns of 1999..arrrghhh!!!

also: bout the NFL realignment: as long as they keep traditional rivals together in the same division, im all for it, they can try all they want to geographically divide the teams, but with all this stupid moving teams from city to city and stuff, itll never work

Yes, it is kinda strange.

However, I suppose its like a 'clean slate' feeling.

I agree with what you said.

I don't know what happened with the Oilers and Houston, but I feel so sorry for the Cleveland Browns' fans because of the Ravens winning it all this year. That's their team. That's the Cleveland fans' team. Instead they're stuck with a sucky expansion team and who knows how long they'll be bad. Art Modell is such a weasel. Moving the team out in the middle of night and the Browns' fans didn't do anything wrong. They sold out that place for years and they loved their team. Well I guess you could say, at least they got a team back but that team's horrible.
