Londoners should be really mad. They get the Jags and Falcons while Berlin gets the Chiefs and Bills.

This is very simple. The city government has started the process of the negotiations on the stadium and development around the stadium. Khan has many times said he wwants to stay here. Lamponf (the gm) made a comment that was weird two weeks ago. That is a comment made to get people to buy in on the city. There is a liberal group of people that do not see the benefit of the stadium at all.
There are also people that want Khan to pay more.
That is going to get worked out with the city. It will happen.
I do expect people to be vocal against it. They will be doing it for two reasons they don’t care or they want something in return.
It just comes down to how much the city will put into it.
If you have studied the problems many cities have had by getting screwed by the NFL stadium deals you will get why they are being cautious.
I really think it is all due diligence and both sides kind of pushing for a little here and there.
Jags will always play a game or two on London.
The new stadium will be sick and help revitalize downtown Jax.
Khan is currently building a world class 4 seasons hotel there now.

I never had any doubts Khan agreed to buy the Jags with a handshake agreement with the league to be the first NFL owner in London. He doesn't give a shite about Jacksonville and will move the team as soon as everything lines up.

They’re the definition of a “small market”… no major teams in anything else. Those places can’t be choosy about their ownership, stadium deal, etc.

The British colonized Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh so maybe the owner feels more at home in England

If the Jags move to London, they should bring back the Monarch’s name and colors

Khan is going to move them. Writing is on the wall.

People have been saying this for Ten years since the Jags started in playing 1 home game a year in London.

Might as well just stay over there, what a shite deal for the players
They likely are. Families make the trip, they get a day off in London. Probably a good experience with the two weeks vs just the 1.

Honestly I’d rather play a game in London than away at buffalo if I were on the jags.

The Jags have played in London more than anyone. This. Ext game should be like the 10th game they’ve played there. The next closest is Miami at 5.
Everyone can see the writing on the wall that they want to move JAX there

DeSantis and the Jax mayor should tell them not to bother coming back.
