Hi lads........ did I see the list of teams & matchups for London somewhere on Twitter or am I imagining it?

Can't find anything on nfl.com?

that was a fake.

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

Jaguars' home opponents:

Titans
Texans
Colts
Patriots
Jets
Eagles
Redskins
Steelers

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

thomond2006 · 05-01-2018 4:10pm

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).

gerryfed · 06-01-2018 3:29pm

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.

paulie21 · 08-01-2018 4:08pm

Announcement on Thursday at 3.45pm

Always Be Closing · 08-01-2018 5:25pm

Hoping the Chiefs will be one of the teams announced.

Will take Panthers as an alternative

Hococop · 08-01-2018 7:17pm

Was at the Cardinals Rams game, saw all the jerseys but the majority was Cardinals jerseys

Also hope the eagles get the game against the jags

Justin10 · 11-01-2018 9:02am

The Chargers will be giving up a home game for the next two years it's been confirmed.

Always Be Closing · 11-01-2018 10:45am

*prays for Chiefs*

Onecoolcookie · 11-01-2018 11:29am

Hoping to make the trip over this year, how long after the announcement do tickets generally go on sale?

Paully D · 11-01-2018 3:00pm

Eagles/Jags
Titans/Chargers
Seahawks/Raiders

Thoughts are they are the Wembley and hopefully 2 more in Spurs new ground to be announced

Nice, looking forward to that. Hello Titans

ScummyMan · 11-01-2018 3:55pm

Are those confirmed Paully?

Much better offering of games this time round if so.

bruschi · 11-01-2018 3:56pm

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.

Hococop · 11-01-2018 4:03pm

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

Justin10 · 11-01-2018 4:13pm

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.

God I hope so, would love to see the eagles

ScummyMan · 11-01-2018 4:25pm

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).

thomond2006 · 11-01-2018 4:51pm

Seahawks @ Raiders 14th Oct at Spurs

thomond2006 · 11-01-2018 4:53pm

Eagles @ Jaguars 21st or 28th Oct at Wembley

KrustyUCC · 11-01-2018 4:54pm

I hate the Eagles but that one might be worth going to

thomond2006 · 11-01-2018 4:56pm

Titans @ Chargers 21st or 28th Oct at Wembley

Hococop · 11-01-2018 4:58pm

Delighted, gotta get tickets for that eagles game

jack presley · 11-01-2018 4:58pm

Great set of games to be fair.

Onecoolcookie · 11-01-2018 5:08pm

Yeah that's a fairly top notch slate of games

Seahawks vs. Raiders and the whole Gruden hype train would be fun

conor222 · 11-01-2018 5:10pm

Some lovely games there, pity they are so close together as I'd like to go to both the Sea Oak game and the Phi Jags game.
Don't think the wallet could take two London trips in a 3 week period :P

alchemist33 · 11-01-2018 5:18pm

Those games are an order of magnitude better than the last few years' efforts, and a Seahawks game is the cherry on top. When are tickets available?

Sorry, I miss read that.
The option is for the start of the 2018/2019 season in case the new stadium isn't ready.

Very MEH imo

Titans @ Chargers is bang average

Fair enough, but there's nothing in there to agree with your suggestion they could play some games at Wembley and the rest at WHL when its ready - that's against the rules.

Seems moot now anyway with the NFL seemingly happy that WHL will be ready for October.

mrkiscool2 · 11-01-2018 5:48pm

So.....when do these tickets go on sale? Gotta go and see the Eagles/Jags game!

TheDoctor · 11-01-2018 6:09pm

Went two seasons ago to see us @ Patriots
Last year @ Giants

Was looking @ Chicago but cant miss out on a short London trip.

What is the story with tickets, I've seen Jan 18th mentioned, but not sure if that's just more info or actual sales.

Information going to be available on the 18th.

Seems like they're going to have a lot to sort out with in relation to how they work the London Games season ticket and then the Spurs season ticket holders. If Spurs STH get first option on tickets I can only imagine that leading to some scramble for the whatever tickets are available on an individual game basis for the Seahawks/Raiders.

Two teams who went 9-7 this year, one that has gone through the first round of playoffs. Think they're very good games this year.

What are you expecting Pats v Steelers?

Overall, 3 of the teams made the playoffs this year, 2 missed out but had 9-7 records and the sixth is the Raiders (6-10) who will have the Gruden hype with them.

I'm just salty as we smashed the Chargers twice and threw away a 3-21 lead against the Titans in the playoffs

Hoping to get tickets for the titans chargers for the brothers stag. Haven’t gone to a London game before though. Is it just a lotto on the nfl site or first come first served does anyone no?
