bet the next next expansion team is in london.the league wants to expand in europe and that,s the logical place to start.

Will never happen. It's like the NBA, MLB.... those leagues are American leagues and that's how it'll stay. Soccer made it work with their World Cup but that's an entirely different scenario, it's not a 'season'. It's basically the playoffs in American sports.

A London based NFL team will never happen and literally nobody is asking for it. If you want to play in the NBA, MLB, or NFL, you come to America... and the entirety of the talented athletes that can, do....

The League was floating an idea of 4 teams overseas last Oct or Nov but I would bet it doesn't happen anytime soon.

Yah I remember reading that and saw your link, but I don't ever see it happening. The logistics of it would be a nightmare to manage, and any division with a London opponent would be a nightmare for travel and home field advantage. You'd have to do an 8 team expansion and put one in every division.

Not to mention, most London games I watch are trash product. When was the last GOOD London NFL matchup we saw? Players seem jet lagged and half asleep.

They were talking of having all 4 in the same division overseas.

That int wasn't Josh Allen fault lol

Your best WR had 1 on 1 and he didn't come down with the ball.

Chase or Jefferson brings that down and quite a few other receivers

This league is so bipolar. Any team can look like world champs one week and dog crap the next week

Refs really want to be the stars of the show today.
