    Actually the Panthers are NFC, so they are on Fox. My guess is that, assuming you are living in the Nashville area, you would get a steady dose of Indianapolis or Jacksonville (unless the network pulls the same crap that they did on the former St. Louis football Cardinal fans back in the late 80s by showing Phoenix Cardinals games in St. Louis and Missouri in general).

    Either way I can say this...I would much rather live in a city with an NFL team that is bad to mediocre than to live in a city that just lost its NFL team....that is just me though.

    Well I live in Murfreesboro. And by the CBS comment, I just meant whoever's game I can watch every single week with basic cable.

    But yeah, I couldn't force myself to go for the Colts or the Jags. I liked the Panthers when I was a little kid, and I still go for them when it doesn't matter for us.

    But in all honesty, I couldn't go all out for another team while the Titans exist. Much more likely to just be indifferent about the NFL until they get their crap together.

    Actually, in my case (when the football Cardinals left St. Louis) I became pretty indifferent to the NFL for a couple of years. I always liked Warren Moon though, and sort of adopted the Oilers around that time. I really did not become a big week by week fan again until the first season that the Oilers came to Tennessee, however.

    Losing a team can be tough...I can say this from first hand experience.

    Rams are more likely to move to LA.

    There have been actual rumors there and not this made up BS.

    Stadium deals are showing up all over the league with teams that were in danger.

    Minnesota getting a new stadium.
    San Diego and Oakland are out and working on deals.

    Jax would be a pricey buyout to leave Florida.

    Tennessee ain't moving.

    If LA/Toronto/London want teams then expansion in the only way.

    why do we need more teams? leagues close to as watered down as it should get. handful of good QB's and a ton of bums. Where do 2 good QB's come from to make this a good idea?

    If you don't expand, cities will lose their teams.

    LA is getting a team or someone else's team.

    why should LA get a team? That town has had multiple shots and failed each time.

    $$$$$

    Listen to the league.

    LA and London within 10 years.

    Investors are there.

    Stadium plans are there.

    It is going to happen regardless of what fans outside of LA think.
