I am now convinced they are moving to London in the next few years. With the NFL obviously trying to put a franchise there with all of the games they play there.

I think an NFL team in London is just a pipe dream.

They should probably just go ahead and put you up for adoption

There will be an NFL team in London sooner rather than later and it won't be nearly as difficult as some think. It's also good for the league and the game. The growth is overseas, it makes too much buisness sense to put a team there.

an NFL team in london if fricking stupid as shite.
They will go 8-8 every year because they will have to travel 16 hours via plane just to get to half their games

I forgot what website it was maybe deadspin, put out an article poking a lot of holes in how popular the NFL actually is in London. Basically the outside of a small base not many people over there really care about the NFL but see it more as a novelty when it comes to town.

It's a bad idea to put a team in London but that's just my opinion
Will likely make money but there's no way it's fair for a team to have to fly to London to play a game or for a team located in London to have to fly out from there

Putting an NFL team permanently in London is a logistical nightmare.
They could never host a prime time game because they would be kicking off in the middle of the night local time.
Travel from San Diego to London would be ridiculous. The traveling team would be at an ultimate disadvantage.
Imagine the London team playing a home game on Sunday at 4:00 pm EST (9 or 10 out there) and then having to play a Thursday night game stateside.
Having an NFL team in London is Goodell's wet dream but it just logistically can't be done. If the NFL is going to expand outside of the USA, they should take a look at Toronto and Mexico City. Bills already play some in Toronto and Mexico City is the second most populated city on the planet with a ready made stadium. If the NFL were to ever catch on there, it would open a whole shitload of possibilities.
