It's a huge market that's untapped. It would take the right owner (Cuban) to make it work, but I don't see any reason why any American city wouldn't want a football team. Baltimore, Cleveland St. Louis etc. all had teams fail and move out but now have other teams that are successful franchises working there.
It would take a lot to make it work. How many of those cities have had multiple teams fail there? LA just doesn't seem to care. Not sure how many teams they need out in Cali anyway. If anything, the Bills would move to Toronto, not LA. But I don't think they'll be moving any time soon.
And as far as the wishful thinking goes, the Bills were decent this past year. The QB discontinuity hurt them more than the number of guys on IR, who were mostly backups anyway. The fact that Trent Edwards will be given a chance as the full-time starter next year should help. Not to mention the fact that the Bills have holes, but those holes could pretty easily be filled with a couple free agents and draft picks. They probably won't be good enough to beat NE next year, but they'll be much more competitive.
