    that was a fake.

    It looks like the Chargers will be in London and the Rams in Mexico, however nothing confirmed yet

    Heard that the price for the 49ers not doing Hard Knocks would be to have to play in one of the international games, possibly against the Rams in Mexico.

    Was it reported 49ers didn't want to be on hard knocks,

    On the international series, seen a tweet on Tuesday night chargers where to play the Bengals in London, looked for the tweet yesterday but it's gone

    With the Jags winning the division and the Titans beating them twice, the Jags/Titans could be a good game.

    However, the Titans don't have a following really here, so be hard to see what market it would get.

    The last one I was at was the Steelers/Vikings in 2013, but for the five years before that you'd easily spot all 32 jerseys. Is it still the same or has the "novelty" worn off at this stage. The attendances look to be holding steady but is it a different crowd now?

    I havent been in a few years either purely because the novelty wore off.
    4 games a year is too much tbh, but if there was a Titans game, i'd be there in a heartbeat.

    I think there's a lot more people wearing Jags gear

    The novelty element of seeing people in all NFL jerseys wore off in the ground. The atmosphere was neutral indeed, though to be fair the football on show was poor (Dolphins v Saints).

    When I went in 2016, the games were announced before XMas and the tickets on sale mid-late January as far as I remember?

    What's the hold up??! :/ Also, can you only buy 4 tickets at once? Think I remember that from last time too. The NFL is gradually getting more appealing to my mates so will probably be more than 3 of us heading over this time!

    I went across in 2015 and it was the same.

    Are those confirmed Paully?

    Much better offering of games this time round if so.

    I cant remember all the match ups from years gone by, but these 3 games must surely be the best pack of games they have ever got for the series. All very much playoff contenders this year or last year and should push on next year too.

    Don't think they are confirmed I'm guessing that's who he is hoping for

    3 games doing the rounds from reliable sources all in Wembley... Seem that white Hart Lane won't be ready in time so only 3 games this year for London.

    The Philadelphia Enquirer and NBC Sports (and probably others) have said these are the games.

    Ah yeah, no smoke without fire, it's being reported everywhere now.

    Seahawks Raiders looks the standout, but I'd be happy with tickets for any of the three games.

    It won't be ready. Spurs already have Wembley rented for the first half of next season with option to even extend into 2019.

    Link to this by any chance?
    I don't think its true as it would be against EPL rules. (must play all home games in same ground).
