They don't even relocate due to poor on field performance.

It took the Steelers 40 years to have a winning season and make the playoffs.  The city built 3 rivers stadium despite that, and the team has been winning since.

The Lions have one exactly one playoff game since 1957, and they built the Silverdome and then Ford Field.

Conversely, the Rams, Colts, raiders, and browns all won championships at one point in their histories.  Their cities did not provide new stadiums when needed.  Their teams moved.

Genuine question: What was the condition of those stadiums as compared to the current condition of TIAA? If I remember correctly, the teams were complaining about outdated and non-functional infrastructure. Our stadium, while still an outdated style of bowl, has pretty decent facilities. 

It's my opinion that the league is tired of seeing so many empty seats at Jaguars home games. Bad product on the field coupled with hell-like sun and heat on the side of the stadium which is televised does not look good for the Jags or the league. 

If not only for the league, but for the sake of the fans, a stadium upgrade is needed.

Quite a few teams had tons of empty seats, pre-Covid. It’s not just a Jax problem
