And here's how the AFL would look:

AFL is an easy, clean 3 Florida teams + Carolina no matter the divisional alignment. East/West is a cleaner, more coherent split between the West and the Central divisions, with the fourth division Rust Belty.
I hate all arrangements of the NFL divisions under that split. I'd do some swapping and rearranging to create more geographically logical divisions. You can't achieve that with the current divides.
