I doesn’t make much sense from a financial standpoint and obviously Khan isn’t ignorant when it comes to money.
He can make more money in London, or at least he thinks he can. For the time being he can make more money, but once the novelty wears off who knows.

But if that’s the case then why spend the money, and more importantly time on building up the jaguars here? He could just let the franchise rot like Kroenke did in St. Louis up until he was ready to go.

If it's permissable for owners of small markets to trade up for larger markets, then every small franchise is in jeopardy. Titans, Bills, Saints, Bengals, for starters.

He can make money even if the Jags aren't here when he still owns it.

From where? What local fan is going to support a team that isn’t here? I know I won’t be spending a dime if that is the case.

Because all of that stuff has other things there just not football. Sure it is built around the Jags, but there are other plans for housing, retail, convention center, etc. It's just not Jags practice field.

well you dont know anything so let me break it down for you

the non-controlling sister in the ownership group is selling her 33% stake along with a bunch of other businesses (including 5+ car dealerships and a oil/energy companies). and also the sale SPECIFICALLY dictates that the purchaser has ZERO say in the team, they would just be a financial stakeholder. honestly, it doesnt matter if it sells or not.

lots of denial in this thread

LOL, you really think someone would be willing to pay that much money and NOT have any say so over what happens? Talk about denial. Nashful is just another small market team and small market teams will always be at risk. SK, on the other hand is smart enough to realize outsourcing a game to a major market actually decreases that risk (by increasing overall income).
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

None of those things matter without the Jags.

As I have been a season ticket holder from day 1, I never thought I would say this. My passion for this team has caused me to threaten to bail MANY times after hearing rumours after rumours of the team moving. What has kept me grounded is the fact that we do, currently, have an NFL team that we can see with our fellow Jacksonville Family and Friends. I really do love rooting for this team. Win or lose. It is indeed a blast. If you also enjoy watching football, go, have fun. If they do eventually leave, for reasons of greed and not the future success of the NFL in this country, then you'd better believe I'll burn every NFL item I have. I'll passionately take to social media and TRY and warn other teams fans that this league cannot be trusted one bit. But in the meantime I will continue to support the JACKSONVILLE Jaguars as long as they exist.

You know what I've learned over the course of the last year?

There's things out there that you just cannot prevent from happening. Whether it involves life, love or career.. Instead of worrying for the future, sometimes you have to learn to enjoy what you have now, while you have it.. If Khan decides to move this team to London at some point in the future, so be it.. Support the team while it's here, whether it's for another year or for the rest of your life.. There's no sense in worrying about uncertainty if you have no control over it.

My two cents..

Can you imagine the after game riots that would ensue every time the jags lost in such epic fashion. That’s worth every penny of Sunday Ticket. Haha 

But seriously. I hope khan quells this rumor crap. It’s disheartening to many fans

everyone here knows the nfl hates the city of Jacksonville. they want the team in london,and when that happens all of a sudden the Jags will win a super bowl cause nfl loves london. Jaguars won't ever win Super bowl while in Jacksonville nfl won't alloew it. we all saw it last year in playoffs. the nfl would alloew the clevland browns to super bowl before they would Jacksonville Jaguars.

note titans owner means im undeafted againest them.

Like most people who follow this team, I don’t believe the Jaguars are moving to London. (Although playing one or two more games at Wembley isn’t impossible)

But I think it would be helpful if one of the Khans would come out and explicitly say that.

Looking back at what they’ve said up until this point it’s really hard to find a cast iron guarantee that the team isn’t moving.

There’s a lot of “you can’t believe everything you read” and “we don’t comment on speculation”. And we can point to his investment in Jacksonville as proof of his commitment.

But can anyone point me to a Khan-quote which simply says “we aren’t moving the team”?

Does anyone think that all of this talk of moving to London could be getting into the players heads? I know its a stretch but they are human. Uncertainty about your future may be an issue. Just curious.
