LA will get one of the current NFL Teams. Which team is still a great mystery. The leading candidates are :

The Oakland Raiders

The San Diego Chargers

The St.Louis Rams

Two of these teams were based in LA before. One has not been based there yet.
IMO, the team that will end up in LA will be The Rams. I see it happening within the next 5 years.

Oakland Raiders just sounds "right" so I wouldn't want them to relocate based on that minor premise.

I don't believe Chargers will relocate, nor should they.

Los Angeles Rams is what I expect to see.

St. Louis recently declined to provide financial support for a new stadium.

Moving SD north makes the most sense if they place it on the very southern end of LA where it would be more of a SoCal team, rather than LA or SD. Get support from both areas.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Build a new LA Stadium and market it right and LA tickets will be the hottest ticket in town.
The LA Rams will return and host a future SB game as well. Weather they compete in such a game is anyone's guess. LA and the Rams are just too good of a fit.

The Chargers may not survive in San Diego, but where they end up is yet a mystery.
The Raiders have the fan support, they just need a new Stadium. I believe that will work itself out, but it is not clear yet.

It does intrigue me that a City that had two teams and lost them both is so badly wanting to take a team from another City. Reminds me of an ex thinking the grass is greener on the other side of the fence and once realizing it is not, "hey, come back, I'm sorry!!"

Al Davis and the Raiders , that speaks for itself !

Why the Rams left LA is not quite as clear. If I remember they were owned by a woman and they were managed and marketed poorly. I believe that LA would not let past mistakes reoccur again. After-all they played there for many decades before.:wav:

If LA can support another team, they could always build on the North end of LA, in both cases would make them more capable of having better entry and access than can be done more central to LA.

Rams were owned by the same woman for about 30 years 1/2 in LA 1/2 in St Louis. They left because they couldn't get a new Stadium and St. Louis was already building one.

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”
beast (17h) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout
beast (17h) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL
Zero2Cool (19h) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.
Zero2Cool (19h) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.
beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?
beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked
Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?
beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.
bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league
packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.
beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."
Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme
Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal
Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline
beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Zero2Cool (15-Nov) : MarShawn Lloyd has appendicitis according to Matt LaFleur.
Zero2Cool (14-Nov) : He probably plays DB.
