Without a doubt this is the last year at Qualcomm. They've basically been on a year to year lease for the last three years (with the city actually paying the team over $3 million per year to stay) and by all indications the team is committed to going to LA.
The city rolled out a new proposal but the team basically told them to shove it. The NFL says that the proposal was a big step in building a stadium in San Diego but the team basically dismissed it.
NFL owners have all but said that the Chargers are moving.
I could type pages and pages about all of the goings on regarding this situation over the years but the bottom line is: Qualcomm is old and antiquated and a new stadium whether here or somewhere else is much needed. This whole thing has been a clusterf*ck from the beginning. The city itself is a nightmare to deal with (getting Petco built was a miracle) and the Spanos family sees moving to LA as a license to print money. Between the city of San Diego, the Spanos family and the NFL pointing fingers at each other for things not getting done, there's no doubt about it, they're going.
With all that said, I am committed to being a Charger fan for this year, but am ready to become a fan of another team starting next year.

Well I can't pick any AFC North team, so that knocks 3 off your list. Indy would be a fun team to root for with Luck, but they are fashionable now. I would say if you want a chance to win and to get a team with a bit of history too I would pick the Dolphins. They have young talent at all 3 skill positions and are in a division that sucks outside of NE and Brady has to retire eventually, right? Plus if you ever decide to go see a home game you get to go to Miami, sounds like a win to me.
