3 London games in 2014


Happy Panther

I thought I remembered one there too.

 

The Cowboys were always popular south of the border. Give them one home game in Mexico City each year and they would probably fill up a 100,000 seat stadium easily.

 

They LOVE Joe Montana and the 49ers as well. If the 49ers and Cowboys played it would be bigger than the Virgin of Guadalupe Festival.

curious why it's always London myself as well...there's huge stadiums all over the damn place over there.

 

Amsterdam road trip anyway?!!!!!

Because they're testing the waters for putting a franchise there.

 

Even if other countries would support games, I don't see the NFL ever putting games there because few players are going to want to go live in non-english speaking countries.

 

London is really the only European city that works (although Amsterdam has a high percentage of English speakers as well).

Panthers in London would be real nice and i will gladly leave my hole to invade the Brits!

London is close enough from Paris, with the Eurostar i can travel from Paris to London (135 minutes), watch the game and move back to Paris the same day.

Belgianfan, you should be a litle closer & Osd22 may have to walk a litle more ^^

Coming over to watch a game September this year for my 30th birthday! I'd choose that over going to london because it's just not the same as stepping foot in BOA and mixing with the heart and soul of the carolina panthers, the fans!. It would be nice to have a game on my doorstep but i would rather watch the panthers on tv than go watch the cowgirls or jags on a Sunday just to say I've been to a football game, I love the nfl but my teams the panthers id feel a little disloyal watching another team hence saving money to come over and watch a few games later in the year which I'm going to make a regular thing (wel if I can convine my girlfriend into liking football)

I've advocated this idea for years:

17 game schedule, one extra bye week. That way every team gets a neutral field game each year.

The nfl gets 16 games a year to put wherever they want, and nobody loses a home game. They could have 4 in London, 4 in LA, a couple in Mexico, one in Germany and Japan. Maybe a regular season game in Hawaii or Las Vegas, and wherever else they want to play a game.

Plus there would be 2 more weeks of nfl.

10 min to Airport, 1 hr flight to LHR = Daytrip ;-) But only if the Panthers are playing. I am not going to watch any matchup not involving our cats.

I do it every year, flying over from Germany to attend two games. It is just priceless. Do it and enjoy BOA!!! Also, I would never miss a Panthers game on TV or Gamepass for a Jags vs. whoever matchup. Never!
