The Chargers will play the New Orleans Saints at Wembley Stadium in London on Oct. 26, sources confirmed today.

The game will be the Chargers' eighth next season, and they will have a bye the next week. New Orleans will be the home team, so the Chargers still will have eight regular-season home games at Qualcomm Stadium.

That is a long, long road trip from San Diego!

That should be a better game than Giants vs. Dolphins.

[!Papacrunk!]

they can have it, it sucked to give up a home game like that.

Except for the 500,000 people who tried to get tickets for the Giants - Phish game last year.

I'll hopefully be there, they should have held it at the Millenium Stadium in Cardiff though, it has a retractable roof and almost the same capacity.

Germans liked it quite well and NFL should hold game there in October.

So long as it is not the bills who are losing the home game i don't really care

We better hope Canadians like it, Ralph is cashing on that.

Didn't Buffalo get permission to use Toronto as their international game?
