The NFC Central used to be: Buccaneers (went to the South) Bears Packers Lions Vikings The Panthers, Saints & Falcons went from the NFC West (weird location for those teams) to the NFC South. AFC Central: Titans - used to be Oilers - moved to the AFC South. Colts moved to the AFC South Jags moved to the AFC South Texans were an expansion team and were put in the AFC South Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pf9 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 According to Wikipedia, the Central Divisions were renamed North Divisions after their respective Southern members were removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you have to do is look at what happened. And regardless this all started because you had the idea that Dallas shouldn’t be in the NFC East anymore which again there’s been no indication that that will happen in 60 years. The NFL could’ve done that when they went to 4 divisions from three 20 years ago but they didn’t, so why would they do it now? The NFL mostly kept the best rivalries in tact and I don’t see that changing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pf9 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Well, Dallas is only an Eastern city in the loosest sense - that defining the East as the Eastern and Central Time Zones This would put part of Texas in the West, being in the Mountain Time Zone Using a strict geographic realignment, it would be Carolina moving to the East in exchange for Dallas. And the Cowboys would have the Saints in neighboring Louisiana as a division rival - something they have experience with; both teams were in the Capitol Division (the forerunner to the NFC East) in 1967 and 1969.

e16bball Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Saw a post from ESPN’s Giants beat writer, Jordan Raanan, indicating that NYG will not be involved in trying to trade for Deshaun Watson. This is good news in my opinion. I’d seen some speculation that the Giants could get involved with young pieces like Jones and Barkley, and that was concerning to me. While you obviously can’t win with just Watson, having him on board immediately raises a team’s ceiling to “potential juggernaut,” and that could prove problematic to have in the division. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTMONK HOF Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 According to PFT, the Eagles are close to trading Wentz! Favorite I would imagine is the Colts reuniting with Frank Reich. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at the same time happy to have him out of the division. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lavar703 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I do not understand the Eagles want to get rid of Wentz and Eagles fans being excited about it? The guy is a pretty damn good QB. He had a rough year but has basically been fringe top 10 since his second season in the league. I think this will mirror the Cousins situation only they’ll actually get value. They’ll spend years trying to replace Wentz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, and last time I checked their entire offense had a rough year and most of that was because 4/5 of their OL was lost for the year and then some of those back ups got hurt too. I think by the time they played us week 17 they were on their 5th and 6th OTs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL. Do you really think the NFL is going to give up the money they make from the Washington/Dallas and Philadelphia/Dallas rivalries twice a year? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
