In hindsight (20/20 I know), maybe going to 18 teams by adding the Warriors & Cowboys was the best option for 1995, with another expansion in the late 1990s/early 2000s, but in the meantime having some carrots there for relocations. (Including all possible resources for the Bears to successfully complete their move to Gosford, as an example of relocation done with good support).

That way, by the time that the late 1990s/early 2000s expansion happens, one/some of the possible expansion locations may already have been taken by a relocation.
For mine, no way the Cowboys should have been admitted in 1995.

They were a shambles on and off the field and it took 10 seasons for them to become competitive and even then they needed News to bail them out.

Hopefully they don't rush the next expansions like that

So they should’ve been culled when the comp went to 14 teams
