Report: NFL plans to put franchise in London within six years.Bye JAcksonville?

[Chris Cool]

for what?

 

[Dzali OG]

Nothing to worry about as it isn't happening. The weekly logistics aren't doable.

How many players would be willing to basically live there for months...what about their family.

I say it's at least 20 years away if at all. Who the fukk Wonka take that plane across the Atlantic that much?

 

[Originalman]

Just shyt talking by the league. They are not going to put an NFL team in Europe.

If anything this will be a way to strong arm a city to buy them a new billion dollar stadium.

 

[MAKAVELI25]

I sincerely hope it's just shyt talking, cause corporations (or LLC's in the NFL's case) have done dumber things.

Soooo what happens if that London team hosts a conference title game?

Then the road to the Super Bowl goes through London

First it was LA, now it's London.. can we live?

 

[Mr swag]

A London NFL team would be playing from a remarkable competitive disadvantage. From unique scheduling of their games out of necessity, to drafted players refusing to go play in England, to attracting free agents with options to come without drastic overpaying. You'd have to give London a higher salary cap from the beginning.

I think they will do 8 games str8 at home or 4.

Teams coming over will get whipped out. There home game advantage would be amazing

would fail, travel would suck
london is a expensive ass city and get paid in usd but live in a country where the currency is higher, not to mention visas, passports, and nflers with criminal records who may not get a visa

Soooo what happens if that London team hosts a conference title game?

It would automatically have to be the 3pm game

But the London franchise will never play on Sunday Night/Monday Night unless they don't care about the audience in the London

 

[Hyman Roth]

No chance.

 

[Jplaya2023]

So basically their home games would have to be between weeks 4-13. Because every team gets a bye coming back from London

 

[distinguishedNOW]

'long as it ain't my team

 

[FS4LFE]

Jags ain't going nowhere. Next.

 

[mastermind]

not sure if serious
brits have been conditioned to ask "how high, sir" when they're told to pay taxes
the brits you're thinking off died off in WW2

Not for no stadium .

They won't bend over like we Americans do.

NFL would just play in Wembley.
