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.

Fan Shout

Zero2Cool (3h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

packerfanoutwest (17h) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break

wpr (15-Nov) : wow. That three different things for the kid.
