If they do move, which city is most likely to acquire the franchise?

Two of the eight largest cities don't have an NFL team--San Antonio and San Diego. But metropolitan area population is probably a better metric.

I wouldn’t say it has nothing to do with years of putrid performance. You wanna be popular it really helps to not suck.

Nashville needs to get rid of its NFL franchise. Instead, the local pols are going to construct a $ 2 billion monolithic, domed football stadium.

The city streets and interstates are full of potholes, greedy developers are ruining residential neighborhoods with more high rise apartments and office buildings, crime is proliferating, and the city now has all the charm of the Bronx.

It’s hard to witness the insanity.

Every stadium (all sports) these days has to be a shrine to the extravagant conspicuous spending consumers and more so than the last one that was built.

Keep it simple. Good field. Good sight lines. Roof if you need it.

These kinds of issues could be avoided or at least minimized if the major professional sports leagues dedicated a slice of their immense revenue to designing and financing league stadiums. The benefit to the leagues would be more orderly and less contentious development and maintenance of the stadiums that are required for them and their teams to prosper. The net effect would be to shift much of the stadium cost from local and state taxpayers.
