So all three formerly Los Angeles teams eager to go back:

https://nflcommunications.com/Pages/NFL-Statement.aspx

QuoteThree teams – the Oakland Raiders, St. Louis Rams, and San Diego Chargers – each submitted applications to our office today to relocate their franchises to the Los Angeles area beginning with the 2016 season. Each team submitted the appropriate documentation in support of its application as required by the NFL Policy and Procedures for Proposed Franchise Relocations.

The applications will be reviewed this week by league staff and three league committees that will meet in New York on Wednesday and Thursday -- the Los Angeles Opportunities, Stadium, and Finance committees. The applications will be presented for consideration at next week's league meeting in Houston on Tuesday and Wednesday. The relocation of a franchise requires the affirmative vote of three-quarters of the NFL clubs (24 of 32).   

So who wins? Which prodigal franchise is welcomed back with open arms?

Didn't know the Chargers used to play in LA.

They were the AFL LA Team before moving out to San Diego in the 60s at some point.

Edit: 1961, they were only in LA for 1960. Still they were technically a formerly LA team :P

IMO, St. Louis deserves to keep its team, so I hope it's not the Rams.

From the league's POV, it probably would make the most sense for the Raiders to go to LA.  No sense having another team compete with the 49er's for Bay area fans.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

St. Louis deserves a team, though they deserve better then the Rams.  I mean, St. Louis isn't that great a city, but they don't deserve that.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Pretty hard to self-destruct at the end of the 4Q more spectacularly than that (and with the feeling that they deserved the outcome).

The Bengals have actively avoided the humiliation of being destroyed by the Patriots. I guess.

I think they would have rather that then the 0 for last 25 years in playoffs.
