In old NFL europe Times nor the monarchs or the Claymores reached the amount of spectators of the galaxy or fire so i am not sure if it would not be a "one game wonder".

The worst NFL game to watch? Pick two NFC Teams you will always be right

The NFL has reached new heights here in the UK since those days - if NFL Europe was ever resurrected, or an NFL franchise landed in London, the support would be maniacal.

NFC >>> AFC in terms of Superbowls - individual teams in terms of quality (currently) - i would agree with you. But there are far more well known and better supported teams in the NFC than there are in the AFC.


NFL Europe would work better now than it did before. Bring over the Cowboys or Dolphins and you'd get all the fans from the 80's involved as well. We could have 8 teams over here across Europe (maybe 4) which given time could eventually be added in as an extra division to the full NFL. Still needs better coverage of full NFL games and better players made available for NFL Europe for it to be fully successful I'd say.

The only way for the jags to have a sold out stadium in the UK is to have games against Raiders, bears, Cowboys or Teams like that and be sure 90% of the spectators will be against those little cats from Florida ^^



Dont agree with that at all - UK fans would fill Wembley with almost any permutation of 2 NFL teams playing a regular season game - the demand may be higher for some more than others (The Raiders NOT being one of those teams!) but id pretty much guarantee a sell out whomever was playing. Whether that would hold true if a franchise played all its home games in London every season is another question - but a one off game per season? Sell out assured.

And if the Jags were playing the Cowpats they would have at least one raucous fan in the stands..throwing eggs and obsceneties at Jason Garrett and his bunch of asswipes....


i would be there if the Raiders play i refuse to have my 1st NFL game experience not involve them hence i haven't been to 1 at Wembley yet, hopefully next season

I am following the NFL since the Span when the NFC won Superbowl after Superbowl and i was bored seeing those results, perhaps thats the reason why almost in every game i like the afc teams over the nfc (except the division rivals of the steelers).

If a Team of the NFL would work in Europe in the long run i am not sure, football is still not that present in the media so thats a big problem.
