They'd never give it to Nashville. They'd put it at Jerry World or Atlanta most likely since neither of those are scheduled to host it at the moment. AT&T hasn't hosted it since 2011 either, so it wouldn't be shocking to see it there.
Alternatively, they could just flip it with a future venue - either the Cardinals stadium or the Raiders new palace.
Until Nashville builds a dome or at very least significantly upgrades the stadium, it's not coming to town.

I'm not convinced the Nashville infrastructure is suitable for that much of a crowd for a week.
It's a pretty crowded city, also.

We handled the draft just fine and that was massive! Agreed it will never come here. Miami would be another option
I think NFL needs to go ahead and move the Super Bowl now! They will ruin it. California should lose it!
It will be an indoor stadium. NFL won’t want a Buffalo - NE Monday night football super bowl matchup.
The Super Bowl will never be in Nashville. I think the best draft ever was the one in Nashville.
Local news (Dallas) is reporting that the NFL has reached out to secure AT&T stadium as a backup venue. Venue management in LA has responded that they will do whatever they need to do to host. They say there is no chance the game gets moved. For whatever that's worth.
I don’t think venue Mgmt has any control over that part.
As stupid and worthless as the COVID restrictions are, I would like to think the NFL can take note of what MLB did and that was just for an all star game.
LA never deserves a super bowl and certainly not 1 team, yet alone two, but it’s scheduled, leave it there. Get the LA visit over with and not postpone until next year or the year after (whoever they swap with).

Exactly the point. That’s what they have to do. So the “whatever we have to do” comment is kind of irrelevant.
I’m sure the mayor of LA is involved in these talks.
The MLB moved the All Star game to Colorado from Atlanta.
Correct. I was suggesting they should not be moving.
They also had large backlashes for doing so, specifically in the Atlanta area.
Ah, was confused by your wording.
As they should have but this is kind of apples and oranges IMO. The mandates will directly affect the fans at the game.
This is where I think this may actually be a bigger issue. LA doesn’t watch their teams. Stadiums are filled with visitors for regular games, I would imagine the SB will be more so.
Any fans that already paid a huge price to attend the Super Bowl, with arrangements in LA, have already forked over tons of money. Even with insurance on whatever they could, now arrangements will need to be made for a new city (if they move) and that will include increased prices on short notice for flights and hotels.
Buffalo and NE can't meet in the SB..both AFC teams and the SB is on Sunday
