It was a recent rule introduced that you have 5 years to give up the home game after winning the bid to host the big game.

A London franchise could work-ish, it'd just need more jiggery-pokery with the schedules.
More runs of home and road games, bye weeks or carefully-chosen matches after trips to or from anything beyond about Nebraska.
It's just a money thing anyway. Once the NFL thinks there's more money in having a London franchise than one in, say, Jacksonville they'll make it happen.
Lol @ the Bills giving Percy Harvin a million to get off his couch for 8 games.
The Vikings fans must be fuming. Looking like a shit heap when Bridgewater goes down, seething at wasting a first rounder on Bradford before seeing the team look really solid to get to 5-0.
Then back to back losses to the Eagles and the fucking Bears. Rollercoaster.
On the plus side, Xavier Rhodes looks REALLY FUCKING GOOD.
I was falling asleep whilst driving this morning and woke myself up by shouting 'BLUE FORTY TWO' and 'OMAHA'.
Based on this imagine how well I could spark an entire offence.
Some team needs to sign me up.
Nah I know that but even before, we've been to London like 4 times already.
Stephen Ross (our owner) gives no fucks about the actual fans of his shit team.
See the Eagles game I understand. Bye weeks tend to mess up your rhythm and we are playing some serious hard ball at home(100% at home but only losing by one score when we do).
The Bears loss I just can't explain.
The eagles actually look like a fairly solid out fit this year. If they had a couple of better receivers they might have been a decent force. Jordan Matthews is too much of a dropper but he's still their best option.
Problem for Matthews is we literally have no one else. Huff just got arrested, DGB hasn't done anything and Agholor looks piss in the wind. We've had to try and turn him into an outside guy when he is really better in the slot. We have been linked to a trade for Alshon Jeffery and also Torrey Smith to try and get an outside guy, but it's not happening. Our defence is also a few additions away from being a top unit.
Jamaal Charles also just went on IR.
FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.
Well I guess Pleb did win the trade.
That's the problem with speedsters. I was a bit concerned about will fuller given he's a receiver that is afraid of catching the ball. But turns out that if you just chuck it at him enough times one will eventually stick.
Actually finding a receiver who's a naturally catcher seems to be under rated. See steffon diggs, Chris hogan. Speed isn't all that important.

HarshAfter being acquired by and then released by the Packers after one game in Wisconsin, Davis was claimed by the Jets at around 4:30 p.m. ET.
However, just 150 minutes later, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported that Davis was in fact being cut by Gang Green and is being replaced by fellow journeyman running back C.J. Spiller.
We've just cut Josh Huff.
He was arrested Tuesday for a small amount of weed on him and unlawful possession of a firearm. His response was "What professional athlete dont have a gun?"
While I'm sure plenty do, not all of them carry hollow point bullets around with them.
That was some catch by Mike Evans, took a fair hit making it too.
Fucking glorious.
The hit
He's in concussion protocol because of it too. You should totally trade him to me now Mahow. His value's only going to drop

Power wanking to the maximumThe team announced Saturday that it has placed running back Dexter McCluster on reserve-non football injury (NFI-I) with a fractured forearm. McCluster will miss the remainder of the 2016 season.
NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported that McCluster suffered the injury in an accident at his home.
Knile Davis is back at the Chiefs again. Hopefully he lasts more than a few hours this time.
Big Ben is back.
According to NFL.com, Collins wanted out of New England. Cleveland is the ultimate punishment in fairness.
The rumour when it happened was that he wanted "Von Miller money."
Instead his contract got strip-sacked and taken all the way for Cleveland.
Mosley, Yanda, Stanley, Smith and Suggs are back for us though
Big Ben will get fucked up, we usually lay a couple of big hits on him a game.
I've already picked up and put in the Ravens in my other league.
Carson wentz has started well today.
Mike Wallace
90+ yard TD?
That throw from Stafford was woeful.
Fairly happy with my decision to play Eli over Stafford so far
Anyone know why Dez Bryant is losing his shit?
Isn't he always?
Yes but usually he finishes by telling Romo that "they the best in the NFL!"
Interesting stat on Jay Ajayi. He almost never gains yards after a tackle, when he gets tagged on or before the line of scrimmage.
However once he gets his legs up to full speed he's gone, his ability to dodge or break tackles massively increases ones he gets past the line.
I was reading something similar on Ezekiel Elliott during the week.
I guess it's time for the weekly 'Blake Bortles is shit' bit. The pick he threw earlier was hilariously bad, and he's doing his best to avoid getting any points at all so far.
Christ, even though it worked even Powell looked mad.
Fitzmagic
EDIT: The other kind of Fitzmagic
Bortles missing a wide open Allen Robinson. AGAIN. It seems like 70% of the targets Robinson gets are borderline uncatchable at best.
Why can't we play like this every game?
You don't play the Steelers every game is why.
True.
I have no idea how, no matter how shocking our secondary is, but we always lock Antonio Brown completely down. Every other week we look like we could give up a TD to a bum off the street.
Oh and lol at Kelce getting ejected for throwing his towel at a ref.
Of course I say that and he scores a TD.
Aww, no shutout for Baltimore
Costs me 6pts in our league, gains me 8 in another league. I'd rather have the 6 in ours, to be honest. And now Eli throws a pick
Only his second TD against the Ravens, in this his 14th game.
That's some boot from Prater.
Jets should've kept Petty in.
I'm not sure what was better.
Golden Tate somehow managing to stay in or the flying mid-air leg drop he put on a Vikings player.
That was some fancy footwork by Tate.
Eli
That onside kick
