I'm waiting for one of these cities to file a lawsuit over this bullshit. I don't understand why it hasn't happened yet.

Every owner in the nfl will say exactly the same thing

Probably because the people who would need to bring forth the suit are too broke to hire legal representation??

It hasn't happened yet because that would be a very absurd lawsuit. The city is not even guaranteed to keep their team past the end of their current lease, much less 8 regular season home games every year.

If you were paying the bills, would you be satisfied with what is happening with the Chiefs? Owners generally hold people accountable for poor results.

Wow. What an absurd overreaction this thread is. I guess I gotta say, if not watching the 2-5 Chiefs take on a terrible Lions team in person upsets you, then you are a bigger fan than me.

The Colts were in the AFC Championship Game last year and just fired their OC.

Todd Haley was fired less than a year after going 10-6 and winning the division.

Andy Reid has not done a ****ing thing since going 9-0 against backups and 3rd string QBs in early 2013.

These are just facts.

If it's great business and good for teams... then send over the top teams. If you want to generate interest, you have to do better than Bills/Jags.

Don't send the spare teams that are looking for exposure - send the best of the best, really try to do it right.

And, not sure what I'm missing, but why couldn't both teams playing in Europe be playing 'road games'?

Grabbed this from Wikipedia about next season -
"2016[edit]
On October 7, 2015 the league announced that a resolution had been passed to schedule international games at additional locations to Tottenham until 2025. This means games will still take place at Wembley in 2016 but it is also possible games will take place outside of Wembley. Mexico City is thought likely to join the slate for 2016.[42] On October 22, 2015 it was confirmed that at least two games per year will remain at Wembley until at least 2020 and that the Jacksonville Jaguars will continue to play a home game there annually throughout the agreement.[43] Subsequent to this, on November 3, 2015 the NFL announced that it had reached an agreement with the Rugby Football Union to host regular season games at Twickenham Stadium from 2016 onwards, with a minimum of three, and as many as five games to be held over the initial agreement period of three years.[44]

Jacksonville will face either the Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, Minnesota Vikings, Green Bay Packers, an AFC North team, or one of their divisional rivals at Wembley and it is rumored that the Washington Redskins are considering playing a home game there too. Green Bay have confirmed they would be interested in traveling to London as an away team.[45][46]

Both the Houston Texans and Pittsburgh Steelers have expressed interest in playing a game at Estadio Azteca (or possibly Estadio Olímpico Universitario) in Mexico City for 2016 although Houston would not be prepared to give up a home fixture.[47][48] (The two teams are not currently slated to face each other in 2016, unless they finish in the same position in their respective divisions in the 2015 season standings.)"

He's been through 3 gms and 4 hcs so far

Clark Hunt is trying to make money for his business? Holy shit....I'm shocked.

So it's just another example of cities being held hostage by the team. Didn't the lease just get renewed with the renovations?

Clark gave up a home game for the London game and gave up an available weekend at Arrowhead for the American Royal.

Clark is in the entertainment business, owners such as Robert Kraft are in the business of winning.

Robert Kraft is in the business of making money as well... do you seem him readily giving up a home game to play in London?

Well, I'm a fan and so I would want the team to succeed on the field...that's a completely different perspective than an owner of a franchise who has to take into consideration the overall success of the league. Should I hope that Clark has the same desire to win a SB as I do, sure. Does he? No clue.

It seems to me, at least, that Clark has acted much quicker than his father in regard to holding people accountable. He can hire/fire the GM and HC. Naturally, those changes will necessitate changes at lower levels. I dont expect the owner to be involved in the hiring decisions that are the responsibility of the HC and GM.

The NFL is testing the market for moving an NFL team there, not starting one up. That's why it's the Rams and Jaguars playing there consistently. Teams that won't move probably won't have "home games" in London.
