Would that even be possible/feasible?

How long would it take?

We wouldn't. The NFL will never award another "small market". It's not the 90s anymore.

I am however tired of this carrot being dangled in front of our faces on an annual basis around London time as a scare tactic. 

At the end of the day, the city existed before Shad Khan got here and is home to one of the best golf courses in the entire world and a good climate. I stopped losing sleep a decade ago about this team moving.

Correct, the NFL would give Orlando a team before they put another one here. If the Jaguars leave get used to pulling for the dolphins again. That said I'm much less a fan of the NFL than I used to be, if the Jags left it would be the last straw for me and I'd become the most casual of casual NFL fans, the kind that doesn't pay attention to who's playing and forgets there are even games on TV.

For the Jags to have a long term future here they need a winning couple of decades like the Packers have had. Minshew might make it happen. Then the Jags could become a national interest level team. Without that happening is always going to be a case of the Jags just hanging on to stay in Jax.
