Top Five NFL Teams Needing New Stadiums

Look around at the Cowboys new stadium, the Cardinals stadium, as well as the Texans and Colts' new facilities.

Those are some great pieces of work, but then there are those that are on the opposite side.

These five NFL teams are in desperate need of a new stadium...soon.

With today's economy, it isn't looking good for any of these teams, and this could mean some really nasty buildings will only get worse in the coming years.

Sorry to the fans that will have to put up with these stadiums for the next several years. Here they are in no particular order.

Edward-Jones Dome, St. Louis (Rams)

The Rams had the Greatest Show on Turf here once, but now it is just a dumpster. I can only imagine how bad it would be ticket-wise if they didn't have Steven Jackson. Oh well, it's a baseball town anyway.

Meadowlands Stadium (Giants, Jets)

Though it isn't one of the oldest, it is one of the worst. Having two NFL franchises play in the same stadium is not only confusing, but hard to run. Switching signs, banners, and logos throughout the stadium is very time consuming.

Monster/Candlestick Park (49ers)

Call it whatever you want, everyone always refers to it as something different. The fact is, the team has been trying for years now to relocate their stadium, but the economy sure isn't helping them out here.

The Metrodome (Vikings)

Is there an uglier stadium in the league? I don't think you will find one, and I don't think anyone would want to try. The Vikings desperately need to crush this place and build a new home, maybe going back outdoors back in the day like they used to, so they can have that weather advantage over everyone except for the Packers of course.

McAfee Coliseum (Raiders)

Just nasty is all I can think about when I think about this place. The weather is always soggy, the fans all dressed in black, always angry, and probably the ugliest owner in the league. Al could take some advice from Jerry Jones; face lift for the owner, then face lift for the franchise, yes...a brand new stadium.
