Are drug and domestic violence laws more strict over there? If so, they will have a tough time fielding a team.

Goodell comes from the NFL Europe background, I believe. Not a coincidence.

Also, it's not unreasonable for this to be a planted article to use as leverage in new stadium negotiations.

It is all about numbers crunching. When the Jaguars make the move, they will move from the least money generating NFL franchise to a top Three or Four. The NFL is all about money and London will be the third wealthiest NFL city. Tottenham Stadium was not modified without prior knowledge of incoming NFL team to reside there: big money is just not that stupid. Tottenham Stadium will be ready for the 2018 - 2019 season: expect the Jaguars to be there then.

Not surprised. A friend of mine has an early 20's son that lives in London and the last time he was here, all he wanted to do was go to an NFL game. He said the NFL is HUGE over there.

Redcoats I hope. Huge villains of American history but the "good guys" from the average Englishman's perspective. They'll love the name, making us hate it more, making them love it more, and so on.

Them and the Patriots would have to play every year right?

They could bust out the old London Monarchs name and uniforms.

I used to have this poster in my room when I was a kid. My aunt worked for the World League, which eventually ended up being NFL Europe.

Sunday morning games for us

I bet all their home games will have 8:00 AM Central kick-off times. We've have NFL Football 8 Sundays a season from 8 in the morning until 11 at night.

I thought this, too, initially

If true, that's a terrible 17ing idea.


But then realized that if the shoe were on the other foot and the English Premier League moved a team here - even one of the bottom-dwellers - it would be a huge hit. (Not sure what they would say/do on relegation if the team didn't perform, but that is not my point.)

Maybe the Sissy Nannies that Peter Griffin played for are a real team. Everyone Tom Brady hates will be sent to them.
