I'm glad for him. That said, I do wish he and his family were more hands off with the team.

The bigger problem would be finding a city that would pay for a stadium and at the same time finding a team that would not cut into another teams  fan base. Thats why San Antonio /Austin doesn't have a team because Jerry Jones doesn't want to lose that section of the Fan Base.
There is probably 8 to 10 cities that could logistically get a new team via Expansion or relocation. Toronto, Portland, Northern California, Austin/ San Antonio, St.louis, London, Orlando, Montreal, Vancouver, and San Diego.  All of those locations have one of two problems 1.) Financing a stadium and 2.) An NFL team too close to them.
