Here's the teams again. It is the Rams, Bucs and Titans are confirmed.

The twist is Pats in London? GB has the extra "home" game that they have never had before so they probably won't complain about losing it to London. I will complain. I don't know how the Packers were going to break up the Green & Gold packages. Since Green already has 6 games and Gold only 2 I had hoped the Gold package would get the bonus game. If it goes overseas then it will be 2 years before I get a chance at another extra game. That's a shame because 3 games would work out well. My wife and I go to the first one. My son and I use to go to the second game. Things changed and he and his wife were going to the second game so I lost spending time with him. A third game would have solved the problem.

Oh well. I can console myself with watching their boys when they take MY tickets to go to the second game. I still win.

I know the Packers are the other team that have not played in London.

That being said, I wonder why this guy is guessing the Patriots game?

I don't know if this streak is still in place, but for the longest team, the London games did not have two winning record teams facing off against each other.

My random guess is IF the Packers have a London game, then schedule makers (for whatever reason) decided to have the (Matt and Mike) LaFleur reunion in London as the Mike LeFleur Jets face the Matt LeFleur Packers. Backup guess is Giants...

OR the Packers 9th game goes to the Gold package and the Packers have a London Away Game! Against whatever the WFT is called next year.

Speaking of the Bills, they're sporting quite a boner for the playoff game today.

This is why the New Orleans Saints had to play in an NFL stadium week 1 against the Packers, instead of using one of the many Texas college stadiums (since the Saints were practicing at TCU) in Fort Worth, TX as they got out of the way of the Hurricane. But the college stadiums weren't designed or set up to have the great high standard of video internet speed technology that the NFL now demands at all NFL games.

And they couldn't play in Dallas because the Cowboys had already rented it out for a mega Spanish band (I think some have said it was the Spanish version of The Beatles). And I believe Houston had a home game the same day.

• London (Wembley): Jaguars.
• Munich: Buccaneers.
• Mexico City: Cardinals.

Jets or Giants.
It won't be any of the NFC North teams. Also no to the Rams and Cowboys.
Pats and Titans are only maybes.

A large percentage of the recent London games have seemed to be AFC vs NFC games.

Looks like since 2017, 75% of the games in London have been different conference teams going at it. And considering they only played those type games 25% of the time before expanding the season to 17 games, that would suggest the schedule makers are probably targeting those type games, probably thinking home fans won't mind missing non-conference games as much.

So the betting favorites should be Patriots, Jets and/or Titans.

Also, I think London games have an really long history of never having two teams with winning records face off against each other.

NFL to play 29th and 30th London games, has still never matched two winning teams

Considering Patriots and Titans made the playoffs last year, I think the betting odds (based on history, which is random selection history but still a pattern) should favor the Jets.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
