So naturally this means after the London game the Patriots will get their bye week, and their following opponents will be the Bills.

 

One more thing...it will be a home game for

the Patriots...they ain't playing at the Ralph!!

Maybe they should just stick the Pro Bowl there. That way, in a game where all the best players find an excuse and the rest go at 80% can be played in beautiful London in February.

 

Couldn't we just send arena football players over there? They wouldnt know the difference

20 years ago the majority of uk fans obviously had very little in-depth knowledge of the game.This is not the case anymore as Tv coverage,NFL Europe league and a thriving amateur league over here has led to a solid fan base of knowledgable followers.I sat with a guy who was over from Buffalo at the London game this year and he was really supprised at the level of knowlwedge of the supporters over here.Hats off to the NFL for the way they have promoted the sport around the world.As I said earlier we are still not sure what the motives are but it is certainley not doing the game any disservice.
