The league expanded to 30 teams with the addition of <a href="/wiki/History_of_the_Carolina_Panthers" title="History of the Carolina Panthers">the Carolina Panthers</a> and <a href="/wiki/History_of_the_Jacksonville_Jaguars" title="History of the Jacksonville Jaguars">the Jacksonville Jaguars</a>. The two expansion teams were slotted into the two remaining divisions that previously had only four teams (while the other four had five teams): the <a href="/wiki/AFC_Central" class="mw-redirect" title="AFC Central">AFC Central</a> (Jaguars) and the <a href="/wiki/NFC_West" title="NFC West">NFC West</a> (Panthers). </p><p>Meanwhile, the two teams in <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles" title="Los Angeles">Los Angeles</a> relocated to other cities: the <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles_Rams" title="Los Angeles Rams">Rams</a> transferred to <a href="/wiki/St._Louis" title="St. Louis">St. Louis</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Raiders" title="Oakland Raiders">Raiders</a> moved back to <a href="/wiki/Oakland,_California" title="Oakland, California">Oakland</a>; this would be the start of a 20-year absence for the NFL in Los Angeles. During the course of the season it emerged that <a href="/wiki/1995_Cleveland_Browns_season" title="1995 Cleveland Browns season">the Cleveland Browns</a> would <a href="/wiki/Cleveland_Browns_relocation_controversy" title="Cleveland Browns relocation controversy">relocate</a> to <a href="/wiki/Baltimore" title="Baltimore">Baltimore</a> for the <a href="/wiki/1996_NFL_season" title="1996 NFL season">1996 season</a>. The Raiders' move was not announced until after the schedule had been announced, which resulted in a problem in the third week of the season when both the Raiders and <a href="/wiki/1995_San_Francisco_49ers_season" title="1995 San Francisco 49ers season">the San Francisco 49ers</a> had games scheduled to air on <a href="/wiki/NBC" title="NBC">NBC</a> which ended up overlapping each other. The Raiders game was rescheduled for 10:00 a.m. PDT in case they were to relocate and NBC was given the doubleheader so that both Bay Area teams had their games televised locally. </p><p>The season ended with <a href="/wiki/Super_Bowl_XXX" title="Super Bowl XXX">Super Bowl XXX</a>, when the <a href="/wiki/Dallas_Cowboys" title="Dallas Cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> defeated the <a href="/wiki/Pittsburgh_Steelers" title="Pittsburgh Steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> 27–17 at <a href="/wiki/Sun_Devil_Stadium" class="mw-redirect" title="Sun Devil Stadium">Sun Devil Stadium</a>.
