I mean, I'm afraid to ask, but please, I beg of you, find a way to convince any of us that the above post is not 100% pure horse manure. 

Khan HAS invested millions in Jacksonville. Please show me how he has not done so. 

The main misconception here seems to be about the fit of your tinfoil hat. 
(hint: it's too tight - could be cutting off some circulation)

What he's invested here would easily be made up by moving to London provided they can sell the tickets at their current going rate.

That's one giant "if."  That also would require about 6 other giant "ifs" falling the right way with the league.

Personally, I seriously don't think a permanent team will draw very well there long term. I think the best the NFL can do is expand the number of games played in London by two or three -  and allow the smaller market teams to be the "home team" as often as possible to aid those franchise's and the league's bottom line financially. 

It boggles my mind how so many people are just mentally leapfrogging all of the logistical hurdles associated with a team (or teams)  based so incredibly far away from its competition. 
The rumors after the 2018 owners meeting suggest that the owners are collectively far apart about a permanent team there, and I do not anticipate that changing any time soon. 

The other thing the fear brigade continues to blindly assume is that Khan actually wants to move the damn team. Something that the man seems literally sick and tired of denying because he has to do it so often.
