Caught this from PFT...

 However, as Peter King of TheMMQB.com reported last month on NBC’s Football Night in America, a two-game West Coast trip has caused the Jaguars to cool for now on playing more than one game per year in London.

If I missed an earlier PFT article on this, my apologies, but why did it take Florio at least a couple of weeks to report this?!?

 

Why hasn't anyone else said anything about this?

That is the first I have seen or heard of this also. It's what most of us have been saying and, logistically, why a London team would not work.

An NFL team in London would be illegal based on their labor laws.  And that's only the first of the problems: http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/971647...gal-issues

With the NFL adding a third game in London in 2014, it would seem they are going to find out soon enough what the saturation point is for the market.

 

They are a long, long way from proving that the market could bear a full 8/10 game "home" schedule.

Is it my imagination or did the Jaguars already say they weren't interested in two games in London a year?

 

I seem to remember the media reporting the Jags were interested in two games a year and the Jags disputing it.
