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 (Tottenham): Packers, Saints.
• 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.
