its insane why a league designed solely to maximize profits cant use these as away games for both teams involved

neither team has a home advantage there and both get screwed over royally going there to play with limited prep time.

Why did the Saints agree to this?

The international games should be those extra games they added in to basically make them neutral site games.

Not sure if they have a choice. But one thing I know, teams like the Cowboys and Patriots won’t be playing any “home games” in London.

They should work out a deal with the Premier League that in exchange for us playing an NFL game over there, one of London's Premier League teams must play a home game in the city that lost an NFL home game.

Can you imagine Chelsea playing a match at the Dome?

Yeah... that's a brutal disadvantage... unless it's Carolina.

Saints lost a home game to the Hurricane this past year so the league fricks the season ticket holders again by stripping another home game.

If you own season tickets you ought to be on the phone raising hell with the Saints for giving another game away.

I tried, but then I fell asleep thinking about it.

I'm sure the majority of people in New Orleans feel the same about that as the majority of people in London feel about a Saints game in Wembley. My apologies if that offends you as a soccer fan.

This better be against Carolina.


I went to the last London game & had a blast but it was strange. Nothing like a game in America. The people over there wore jerseys of other teams. The loudest the fans got was when the Miami cheerleaders came out. One of the locals told me that is because they don't have cheerleaders over there.

Gayle really should’ve pushed back and said something like, the only way we’ll go is to play a road game. We lost a home game last year because of a hurricane

Gayle doesn’t know wtf she’s doing. Should’ve went scorched earth after no-call. She’s just there to smile and take a couple photos.

I hate the London games!
I hate the Thursday night games!
I hate a three day draft on weeknights!

I swear to god, Goodell is ruining the NFL one advertising dollar at a time.

The fact that we lost a home game last year should be enough to disqualify us from this lame arse shite alone. And add in that it’s a division opponent; that’s complete bullshite.

Has it been equitable with all teams playing in London?
How many times has Dallas gone?

This is the third trip for saints with two being home games
Dallas has been once but never lost a home game
