The NFL is doing pretty well TV revenue wise without a team in Los Angeles. In fact I would say they don't really need or even necessarily want a team in LA. But they want to use LA as leverage against other cities. Much the same way MLB did with threatening to put a team in Washington, DC for so many years until there was no choice. "Oh you won't build a new stadium, oh you won't pay our debt with tax dollars? Fine then, we don't need you we're going to LA...oh now you want to build the stadium. Yeah I thought so" That's pretty much how it goes. But when you take away the threat of LA then what happens? You start threatening to move a team to Vegas?

Los Angeles is really just NFL leverage against all the other cities in the league
