I don't want Buffalo traveling to Australia. Too far. I'd rather it be in the UK, Germany, Spain, Brazil, Mexico, etc. Thanks! Yeah, I was just going by what was posted in the CBS Sports article re their 2026 opponents: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-is-headed-to-australia-rams-named-designated-team-for-leagues-first-game-ever-down-under/amp/

These are the 2026 home opponents for the Rams: Cardinals 49ers Seahawks Giants Cowboys Chiefs Chargers TBD NFC North team TBD AFC East team Pray the Rams don't repeat as division titlists in 2025, since that increases the Bills' chance of playing in Australia (assuming we win the AFC East).

I guess the purpose is to attract international fans. According to the CBS article: "The NFL opened an NFL Academy on the Gold Coast last year, and claims there are already 6.6 million American football fans in Australia."

Reported by the Herald Sun in Australia [paywall only], but not confirmed by the NFL or teams involved, so take it as you will. https://www.cbssports.com/writers/jeff-kerr/ NFL in Australia: Eagles owner will play in first game Down Under, but under one condition "Per the Herald Sun, the Eagles and Los Angeles Rams are the two teams scheduled to play at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in October of 2026. The Eagles gave up a home game this season when playing in Brazil, and this would be the case for 2026 based on the report. The Rams are a designated home opponent for the Eagles, so Philadelphia would again be asked to give up a home game" https://www.sportspro.com/news/nfl-melbourne-australia-games-mcg-rams-eagles-regular-season-2026-february-2025/ Melbourne ‘set to host’ NFL games at MCG Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams lined up for the league’s first match in Oceania. "The league’s interest in playing in Australia was first confirmed last year. According to the Herald Sun, NFL officials visited the MCG last August to investigate the viability of staging games at the venue. Victoria state premier Jacinta Allen is said to have personally played a key role in negotiations, with a deal to make Victoria the sole Australian state to host NFL matches. The NFL opened an NFL Academy on the Gold Coast last year, and claims there are already 6.6 million American football fans in Australia. The Rams and the Eagles, who have former Australian rugby league player Jordan Mailata on their roster, currently hold global marketing rights for the country." ---------- [But from the same CBS Sports article:] "If the Philadelphia Eagles decide to play in Australia, they won't be making the same deal as the last time they played an international game. The Eagles are reportedly set to play in the league's first regular-season game in Australia, but owner Jeffrey Lurie will not give up a home game this time in order to do so" [...] Lurie won't be giving up a game at Lincoln Financial Field in 2026, the season the Eagles are scheduled to have nine home games. "We are a natural team to play there," Lurie said. "If there's an opportunity to be an away team there, we will embrace that."

Red herring to cover up your failure. Always cite your source so we know where you got it from and the info is reliable. Simple thing to do and common sense.

Always post your source. ------

Sigh...there was already a thread about this last month:

Who was the coach? [Edit: I see @machine gun kelly just beat me to the question. I also listen to Sirius NFL Radio. I guess great minds think and do alike! 😀]

If you mean this Joe B., I fully agree!

As long as they don't charge us for this survey. 👍🏻😀

Will schools be closed? My friend that when Washington won the SB, no one showed up at school the day of the parade.

CFP National Championship Game #8 Ohio State (14-2) vs. #7 Notre Dame (15-1) - ESPN 7:30 PM

History is on Buffalo's side:

Yeah, I remember in the Bills first SB year in 1990, Jordan and a few other players said they were cheering for the Bills in the SB. The Bills were viewed as cool back then with all the star power (Kelly, Reed, Thomas, Smith, Biscuit, etc.) vs. the boring Giants with Hostetler, old OJ Andserson, Jumbo Elliott, etc.

You're right! That's what I get for posting when I just woke up!

Good idea, but I think not because the new customer would not necessarily know the previous customer's question.

We posted at the same time! I'll delete my update post in my thread and post here: Curioysy, there is no NFL Espana twitter, but they went with ig instead:

At this point, they can have the Sabres.

This is what boyst said: "The game is American, not German. Don't let them play football Damn Krauts"

The Polish Rifle, aka Jaws, the most famous Polish NFL player I believe, approves. It's a interesting idea. There were certainly many Polish residents in my town growing up. I am half Polish (and still, to this day, a little apprehensive about admitting it). BTW, anyone remember Dyngus Day?

I had forgotten about Athens, but it would have to be in their low season due to the tourist crowds.
