    I would love to go to one of these. It would be a dream come true if the Packers were there, but I doubt it will happen, and I very much doubt i would be able to afford/get a ticket.

    I just know I'm gonna end up going to all three (even if I have no idea where in the world I'm going to be this time next year)

    That's brilliant news. One day maybe, we could have our own NFL team.

    What could they be called?

    Well there was the London Ravens team back in the 80's. They were very good too.

    I saw them play Portsmouth Warriors once.

    Inflammatory. I like it.

    However, as a Dolphins fan, I wouldn't really fancy cheering for the Patriots!

    Actually England Patriots or Redcoats really works, when you think about how many different groups, would in fact be pissed off by it!

    Do you think they will announce the fixtures at the weekend?

    I'm dying to know who's playing the Jags, Falcons and Raiders.

    As a Chiefs fan would love Raiders v Chiefs but can't see it happening as it's a divisional game with big rivalry plus they tend to match AFC with NFC.

    Still hoping to get a season ticket for next year!

    It could be... it was earlier than this last year that they announced the two games, so it'll surely be soon. Tickets went on sale mid-November so there's plenty of time. But yeah, it won't be Raiders-Chiefs, that's probably one of the only games Raiders can sell tickets at high prices for! I've been praying for Jags-Colts but there's about a 0% chance of that happening.

    As long as some good teams come I will be happy.

    Wouldn't mind seeing the Texans at wembley.

    JJ Watt is a beast of a player.

    Ha, England Redcoats, that would be epic. There's currently an American Football team called London Blitz, which isn't a brilliant name, but could be worse I suppose.

    I was reading an article and one of the suggestions was the London Werewolves, which is a pretty awesome Warren Zevon reference.

    I have been promised that I can have a ticket to one of the games as a birthday or xmas present. I will just wait for the dates to be released and chose which. Im thinking Dolphins @ Raiders but wouldnt mind any of them.

    What is wrong? If Jags play at Craven cottage - that is technically home team!
