NFL Empires: 1941
This is a continuation of my "empire" maps (where victors take the territory of the losers) of the NFL. Different than most such imperialism sports maps, instead of gaining all the loser's land from a victory home or away, the victor only gets territory for an away victory, and just two-thirds of it (or one-third for an away tie).
There were no changes to the teams between seasons, so the 1941 map starts where 1940 left off.
My data was from Pro Football Reference and most of the logos from SportsLogos.net.
Here then is the map of the NFL empires after the 1941 season:
Green Bay (green) gained a lot of ground, but they didn't get to play in the championship game. They finished the season tied for first in the Western Division with the Chicago Bears (light blue), but the Bears won the playoff game (played in Chicago), then the Bears won the championship game versus New York (dark blue), also played in Chicago. So Chicago didn't gain land from those two games.
Here is the map before the season started:
When, oh when, will the Packers/Bears dominance end?
