Jags lose....

[bonehead]

Should have bought The Q

[Panamamike]

What for? Place is a crumbling dump.

[bonehead]

Not really, I liked games at the Q

[Boltjolt]

You might but the NFL don't.

[chargerkdb]

Its not exactly a secret the NFL wants to be in London

[Bolt-O]

Eventually they will have to tarp half of Wembley, just to get to 40K

[chargerkdb]

For 8 games a year, I doubt it. They have entire country to draw on for fan base. NFL isn’t huge in UK but big enough to fill the stadium several times over. Soccer always rules there but cricket and Rugby don’t get anywhere near the attendance of NFL games in London. NFL games are a totally different atmosphere to soccer anyway. The London games are popular because you can take your family to an NFL game. Although stadium violence under control for UK soccer it’s not nearly as family friendly

[Boltjolt]

London will be a fail. Sure they may make some money but no free agents will want to go there and players in the same division will complain about flying to and from there twice a year and the London players won't like flying eight times a year for 16 hours for road games. Drafted players will leave asap when their rookie deals are up. Their team will always suck. It's just a bad idea.

[Heatmiser]

Whole NFL loses. I hate it when Bolts have to play in London. And the Brits really could give a rip about NFL. This is all about greed.

Kind of like moving a team to LA. There is support there and big money to be made. In fact London seems more enthusiastic about going to any old NFL game than the LA market. It is what it is

[Gwynning_Spirit]

Are they going to say Jag-You-Are's, like they do with the car?

[chargerkdb]

Its jag-u-ugh. I’m sure they will figure out how to make them leak oil just like EVERY car they’ve ever built

[WindsorUK]

Works for me- I like the Jag-U-R's.

[floydefisher]

Could work if they play it right.

They would probably have to make the road an 8 game straight trek to save money, otherwise the franchise will lose a bundle on the road games.

As for the other teams....doesn't some airline in NYC offer $100 airfare to London? Sure the players wouldn't mind sitting in coach on a no frills flight, right? :sarcasm:
