International Games Announced Tomorrow (Hoping We Get One)

[BrooklynRam]

Usually, getting a game in Europe is one giant pain in the ass. But if you're the "ROAD" team as we would be, it would work in our favor considerably.

The 4 NFC Home Teams hosting are
Green Bay
New Orleans
Tampa Bay
Arizona

We play ALL 4 teams at their house this year. We can EASILY be included in this series and we find out TOMORROW.

Why would it behoove us to get one or two even?
Imagine negating having to go to Lambeau Field, possibly late, and instead of facing a packed house of opposing fans, playing them on neutral field in London? Huge advantage Rams.

Same holds for New Orleans, where playing in the loud Stupiddome has its challenges.

We could avoid Tampa by meeting them in Germany and we can avoid Arizona by meeting them in Mexico.

Not trying to "duck" anybody. We are the World Champs and we'll beat anyBODY, anyTIME, anyWHERE. But avoiding Lambeau especially, and New Orleans secondarily, may have its advantages.

I don’t want them playing an overseas game. The travel, time change and huge wrench in the players routine isn’t worth it. JMHO

 

[Elmgrovegnome]

I don’t want one for the reasons stated above. It handicaps the team for the next week.

 

[ScotsRam]

The team are used to it, they've been over enough times now. Our recent record is really good in these games. With a bye week following the trip the logistical issues are overblown for a one off game.

Would rather not because I believe we're high on the list I think next year when they add a game in China. Take this year off to prep for that IMO. That said I'd rather play GB in London than up there.

i'm pretty sure china will be off the agenda by next year. they would have already attacked taiwan by then and the nfl will be told not to pander to them.

[Jacobarch]

Yup don't want one.

My point exactly...

Anything is possible

Guys, the Rams wont HOST Internationally again til 2024 at the earliest. In 2023 the AFC with 9 Home Games gets the overseas hosting duties like the NFC got THIS year.

Peter King reports the Rams have asked to play Packers in London this year..

Rams wire
According to Peter King, the Rams have told the NFL they wouldn’t mind facing the Packers in London if the league is planning to schedule that game at Lambeau Field late in the season

 

[RamFan503]

Can you imagine the bitching and moaning from Pecker fans if they schedule the Rams in London? That would be worth it right there.

What he said.

 

[Flatlyner]

What would make the most sense is us playing the cards in Mexico. Closest proximately to both teams and a solid chance that there is a bunch of fans of both teams down there.

 

[RamUK]

You lot are being very selfish.

I'd suck a dick to see them play in London now I'm back here after missing the other games because I was in Orlando.

I won't swallow though.

That would be too much.

 

[Angry Ram]

What he said.

These are highly tuned athletes in peak physical condition. And now with a decade+ of international game no reason why teams can't adjust.

They'll be fine.

 

[Riverumbbq]

I think a tribute game for our Rams bro's in the UK would be a great thing, and against Green Bay in the winter at Kroenke's very own Arsenal Stadium. Why not ?

 

[ScotsRam]

I'll go to a London game regardless (or maybe even Munich but tickets for that will be a bitch to get)

So they have played there a few times, are you telling us you made this happen? J/K

 

[FaulkSF]

I predict they'll play against the Bucs in Germany. Only because somehow my plans to see them play in Tampa will be ruined.
