It's kind of bizarre Toronto hasn't happened already tbh. Huge city and such a franchise would likely to be a massive success with as much corporate money as there is around here.

While they are at it why not Moscow? Looks like they already have some first rate talent. <iframe width="1520" height="589" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/5T703TAscJs" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Yeah, 18% (very/quite exciting) of London is 1.62 million people, which is more people than the greater Jacksonville area... and approximately 1.62 million more than those in Jacksonville who find their football "very exciting".

Bring back NFL Europe so all the He Hate Me's can go play over there and we can keep our stocked 32 teams here.

Is it right that given a NFL player would be making more than 150k pounds that they would be taxed at a rate of 45%? Good luck getting players over there.

Gentleman's agreement with the CFL. NFL doesn't expand into Canada and CFL doesn't expand into the US.

The NFL would **** over the CFL in a second if it suited them and they saw a profit opportunity. CFL almost went out of business completely last year.

Mexico City, London, STL, Anchorage, get teams

have to add one more team per conf to the playoffs.


I do not like it.

we have a thriving Chiefs fan chapter in Mexico City. The NFL will work there. London will support a NFL team. STL was supporting their team until Kronke saw the billions to be made in LA.

Last one is in no way going to be Anchorage. Has to be Canada.

I think this would be bad to do.

Probably 1.62 million more than London if the Jaguars were their team.

Buffalo would oppose a team in Toronto or Montreal.

I have watched much less football this year. Maybe one game a week other than the Chiefs. Dilution of the product will just make me care less.

Anchorage has to be joke. Anchorage couldn't even support the minor league Hockey team they once had; and hockey is probably more popular than football up here, at least more kids play it than football. Small population, no stadium, etc
