2026/2027 NFL Thread

NFL league in Europe, remember that, was such a huge success. It lost a lot of money for the league and the NFL shut it down. So no, Throwball won’t make more money than football…the real football. It won’t happen but if it does it’ll flop just like it did before. The current NFL games overseas are a novelty and nothing more.

the europe league failed because it wasn't NFL players.

it is highly unlikely a team could survive in Europe. They will definitely keep playing games there, but I highly doubt a team moves permanently.

Tottenham (who thinks their a big club) built their toilet bowl looking stadium to replace their former ground, Shit Hart Lane, to partially entice a potential NFL franchise.

What do we think of Tottenham?
Shit!

Tottenham!
 
The fact that the fields are almost identical size, means every European football stadium could be a throwball (handpig) stadium.
 
For those of you just not paying attention....It's already in the works.... Next season they are expanding the international games to 10 from 8. They wouldnt do this if people werent showing up. It's going to happen. You either expand or die. The NFL owns the sports market in the US, they have to expand.
 
The people showing up is like maybe top 5 of reasons they do it.

Gosh. If there were already a country close by that has some gridiron history and speaks majority English...and already has teams from the NHL, NBA, MLS, and MLB located there...

Strained relations will prevent this from being a possibility. Which is a shame because I think that's a great idea. There's also Mexico, which is an obviously good place to expand, but for the same reason above, not possible any longer. Maybe in a couple years that can be looked at again.
 
I doubt owners would vote to approve expansion and lose a chunk of the TV revenue they get. Not sure NFLPA would agree to it, either. Hard to have players part of a union when they're not in the country.

I think "fake expansion" is more likely. Each team gets 8 home and 8 away games, plus a neutral site international game in London/Mexico/Germany/Spain whatever.
 
Will Bosa get injured again tonight?

Every god damned year. One year we stay healthy Super Bowl, then it strikes and down we go. Who fucking ruptures their achilles jogging onto the field? Must be some crazy voodoo curse on the new facilities. Are we sure we didn't build it on some kind of ancient burial ground? Move that shit already and lets get over this injury curse.

Seahawks offense is still sleeping.

Defense is easier to learn/play than offense. Offenses typically take couple of games to find their groove especially now that starters play like one series in the preseason. Disappointing finish by Maye/Pats.
 
Yeah... Guess Darnell is not out for the Season.. supposedly.

Listening to Sports Talk Radio the 9ers doing stuff in Australia seems to be favorable to the fans.
We will see how many red or blue jerseys actually show up tonight.

I'll disagree with you.
You can set up defensive tactics, but it takes a long time to master because it's reactive. To make things worse, other teams will find the holes in the defense, then they need to retool, but there are a bunch of moving parts, it requires a bunch of guys to change the way they've been reacting to the actions of the offense, just one guy gets it wrong and you're screwed.
