So according to MSN sports London will have their own team by 2022. Of coarse the Jags have been named as a possible team to move as they are owned by Shad Khan

here is the article

NFL spokesperson issued a statement that it's false

IT WAS ALWAYS THE JAGS

cool, MSN never checks their facts

~~JaguarsWoman~~ · 01-20-2016, 09:50 PM

There is absolutely no reason to believe the Jaguars are moving there. Shad Khan made it very clear he will not leave Jacksonville through both words and actions.

Cleveland, Baltimore, St. Louis, Los Angeles, Oakland, San Diego, Houston Oilers, Oakland (again), St Louis ( again), That being said, anyone can move. No one thought that the Baltimore Colts or the Cleveland Browns would ever leave !

It just ticks me off. I spent the weekend with my brother who lives in Denver. He's an idiot and made a [BLEEP] London Jaguar joke of which I had to ignore, because my wife has told me I could not fight with him during this trip.

And then this stupid MSN article. It's just really frustrating. Now I'm gonna have to hear it from him next time I talk to him.

If there is one thing I have learned following Fulham since Khan bought the club, it's that the British media makes the American media look like Puritans when it comes to ethics and journalistic integrity.

Thanks. This article is the common sense reasoning that we all know. Of course, the MSN article is the article everyone will remember.

MSN doesn't come out looking anybetter either.

No, but they didn't do any of the sourcing for the story they just took the BBC article and pushed it down the river some more.

yep typical lazy journalism, no fact checking whatsoever, just regurgitating what someone else said.

Duncan, I assume you fully understand every city on that list failed to support the team and provide a better stadium. Jacksonville, on the other paw, is getting the most assistance for stadium and practice field improvements of any team that has a lease with the city. Any real Jaguars fan knows Shad Khan has been making tons of stadium and practice field improvements with the full support of Jacksonville's City Council. It is the exact opposite of what every team that moved out of its city had.

The only way there's going to be a NFL team in London, is if they plan on moving at least 4 teams to London. Only one team in London will never work. Teams cannot fly back and forth every week and no team is going to play 4 straight home games, then fly to the States and play 4 straight road games. It's not going to happen.

What if you get a player injured in your Thursday practice. Have to get somebody in the states to give some guy on the streets a physical and fly them out Friday/Friday night (what if they're on the west coast when you call said FA). Now they arrive in London, mid Saturday? They're expected to play at a high level on Sunday morning? Isn't happening.

The NFL is all about money. As we speak 1 British Pound equals $1.42 US Dollar. There's plenty enough reason to believe the NFL will find a way to make it work over there.

There is no reason to think it would work. You have to look at the interests of players and coaches, who have personal lives outside of football and families or girlfriends. Think about the time differences too: eight hours for West Coast teams and seven for the Broncos and Cardinals. Even the Jaguars lose five hours when they fly to London.
