That and it wouldn't of been good enough to compare but yeah if I don't do this now then I'm likely going to keep going which is going to annoy those that say I haven't learnt... I'll linger in the background, it's time to let others take the front pages

I did this (not this thread) as a side hobby for years and I felt that I was limited to what I did and yet did well for what I was able to do.... feels like that is now coming to a collective halt, not that I've been ignoring the problem at hand for years but pure utter stubbornness kept me going and yet that creativity has dried up.

I'm effectively going to put this and the other thread on hold.

Yeah I just saw that @B-Rich, not cool.

That would be the case except the antlers of the Elks are part of their logo and their logo connects the Elks to the letter E.... that and Mormons.

All these exciting teams and we need a team from the west to essentially bring it all back.... unfortuately they exist in Mormon country.

SALT LAKE CITY ELKS

Into the AFC West go a side that sells itself on tradition, on connecting Denver to Los Angeles and to Seattle... even though they are run by Mormons and if you know Mormons then you know... not saying how I know but when you know, you know.

Time for team 45 and this team honors it's connection to Native American history... whilst shaming those that pretend.

LOUISVILLE THUNDERBIRDS

The Thunderbirds play in the AFC North and are as traditional as most of the expansion teams on the list... being 85% overwhelmly popular when presented as a franchise name choice does that to you but the Thunder Red and Thunder Orange choices are standouts on the field... especially since the Cardinals were an inspiration to uniform choices but they also refuse to wear black nor do they were grey.

Something that I should say that people should know.

Just like in the USFL thread, there won't be any international teams... despite how tempting it is to make a London Monarchs set.

However there is good news because NFL Europe has in fact thrived and currently exists in the modern day as a professional run D-League allowing practice squad players to thrive with local players...

Teams includes:

London Monarchs
Barcelona Dragons
Dublin Shamrocks
Amsterdam Admirals
Frankfurt Galaxy
Cologne Centurions
Hamburg Sea Devils
Berlin Thunder
Rhein Fire
Scottish Claymores
Paris Musketeers
Munich Cowboys
 

NFC South.

I wouldn't exactly call myself a genius per say.... and speaking of which its time for team 4 of this third wave expansion as we now head to Texas for a team in a city known for it's weirdness and it's anti-Texas stance.

AUSTIN ARMADILLOS

The Armadillos have an owner known for his Tex Mex preferences but he's also known being Anti-Texas... what I mean is that whether it be Cowboys or Oilers.... he defies their expectations and make sure that the team is well known for being something else, so bright colours for those two teams, the Armadillos are known for their Black, Red and TerraCotta esc Gold.

They are the brand that every non Cowboy and Oiler fan goes to and in a surprise twist, pretty much the popular anti-establishment team in the NFL because of their clashes with Roger Goodell.

Yep we have peaked in Nighthawks, this is proper intimidating and  we can all thank @Bomba Tomba for the suggestion.

This would look dope in the actual Ravens colors ngl (maybe even a darker shade because "night"?)

The darker blue or the darker purple??

For context:

NFC East: Baltimore, Philadelphia, Washington, NY Giants, Charlotte, New Jersey
NFC North: Green Bay, Chicago, Detroit, Minnesota, Indianapolis
NFC South: Kansas City, Tampa Bay, St. Louis, Memphis, Birmingham
NFC West: San Francisco, LA Rams, Arizona, San Diego, So Cal Suns, Las Vegas

AFC East: Miami, New England, NY Jets, Florida, Carolina
AFC North: Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Buffalo, Virginia
AFC South: Dallas, Atlanta, Houston, New Orleans, Jacksonville, Tennessee
AFC West: Denver, LA Raiders, Seattle, San Antonio, Portland

The one with the Eagles, giants, commanders and colts

Next up we're going to an unlikely destination.... NEW JERSEY.

And fighting for NJ is this reality's version of the Ravens...

NEW JERSEY NIGHTHAWKS

The Nighthawks thrive on the state colours of Blue and Buff whilst having gloss black helmets.... they fight in the NFC East.

What division would the Nashville team play in?

AFC South

I'm seeing if anyone is interested in a second being done for Nashville otherwise I'll be locking in these Pred coloured Titans.

Like this? @fortunat1

Next up on the ole expansion wave of the third variety.... we're heading to Nashville!

TENNESSEE TITANS

.....

"hears crickets"

Ok so hear me out.... I don't like the Titans current look because it's unfitting for a team that used to be called the Oilers... HOWEVER for an expansion team that is treated as an offshoot of the Nashville Predators whose ownership group includes Pekka Rine, you could say things are hella fine right now.

I imagine saying this whilst the room i'm sitting in is on fire.

Literally.

"looks around"



SEND HELP!

You know what, you could replace the gold with orange and use it as the basis for a Bengals identity

I could do actually, that's an idea for 4.0 "puts it in the suggestion pile"

And for Posse v2 without making them too Saintsy as Bomba said... so let's go all silver for the road!

Marvin: Now where did I put that NBA championship.  

And I made some adjustments for the Tigers.... made a v2.

I think what I'm going to do is make 2 teams for each expansion city and see what you guys think is the better of the two, sounds like an idea for the rest of the thread.

And the pants
