Per ESPN..... Discuss.

Good. I hope it's a Pats home game.

Brady comes back, game is billed as a close one, Bucs get their asses handed to them and suddenly Brady and Bellicheck are getting their asses kissed in 15 different European languages.


Better them than us, though, and like RS said, hopefully the Pats lose a home game.

lol!

What are you smoking/drinking/shooting up?

A Pats home game? Do you really think the NFL would do that?

[gr8slayer]

I really hate this whole going overseas to play games crap. I wish the NFL would just stick to America for regular season games. It's 100% unfair to the NFL fan base.

As a matter of fact RS is all of the above.

they may not have a choice. Whether it's home or away depends on how the Pats and Bucs finish the season.

Not true, Buffalo beat Oakland, Seattle, and San Diego at home :up:

The game will be played Oct. 25. The Bucs will be listed as the home team, giving up a game in Tampa.

Told you so.

Yup, because there's too much money to be made off of NE playing prime-time home games.

Probably after the Pat's bye week as well, unless the NFL saves that for us.

The way the London games work is both teams get a bye-week after the game. Now I could see the NFL making the Bills the first team NE plays coming off their bye-week. That would be pretty typical of the NFL.

[Dr. Lecter]

Both teams will have the bye week after the game.

That is how they have done it recently.

[RockStar36]

Does it matter when they get their bye week? The Bills aren't beating them regardless. I don't see how they need that extra week to prepare for that dangerous Buffalo Bills attack.
