London Next Year?

[bigdog10]

Would be willing to bet we are the bucs opponent next year in London. The NFL has gone on record as saying they want to get the remaining teams over there who haven’t made the trip. I’m just glad we’re not losing a home game to it.

FYI:  the panthers, packers and Texans are the only teams never to have played over there. 

The texans play at the chargers, jaguars and the Bucs next year.

packers play at the chargers as well.  

Here’s how it could look to get the last three teams over for their first London/ international game:

panthers at bucs

packers at chargers

texans at jaguars

I just hope it isn’t us. We’ve already gone twice, 2008 and 2017.

Don’t forget the Mexico game. Mexico could get two games to make up for the one that was yanked this year. Tampa vs Carolina could very well be in Mexico

If Obada remains on the roster I most definitely see this happening.   Obada is a folk hero as far as the UK goes.  I would imagine their #94 jerseys would sell like hotcakes for those that are going.

I think JR was adamant that he did not want to play over there.  I don't know if owners had a say in whether they go or not but that seems to me the only reason why we haven't been on the docket to go.

I work overseas so I would definitely try and make this game.

As an european i go to London games every years and pray to see my Panthers. Would be amazing and good as it would be just a away game for us and not really an home game for the supposed team to host. All good.

I hate to break this to you dave but i think you might be overestimating obada's power. He isn't a folk hero, I would guess most nfl fans here couldn't give a toss, hell ajayi won a superbowl and no one cares.

Also I doubt obada's status has any impact whatsoever on the schedule makers.

My guess is that tepper agreed to an international game as part of his purchase.

You don't have to highlight things you disagree with in red like a damn teacher. Just say your piece and move on. Quit being a douche

@Tampa Bay would be ideal. I'm desperate to see the Panthers over here but I wouldn't want you guys to lose a home game.

One day, I'll make the pilgrimage but Charlotte isn't exactly the easiest or cheapest American city to get to, even from London. You guys are likely to find that out in reverse next year although it will be a brilliant trip; much as it's hard to admit as a Scot, London is a brilliant city!

Well in the unlikely event that Ron’s still here it’d be a guaranteed loss since it’s a division game 

[Jangler]

have they even placed a divisional game in London? doesn't seem too fair, ya know to the fans.

BA just started flying into Charleston SC direct. About a 3 hour drive to Charlotte. Also BA already flies direct into Charlotte with AA
