2016 UK International Series schedule; Cowboys Possible

[EST_1986]

The Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Indianapolis Colts in an AFC South division matchup in Week 4 on Sunday, October 2, at Wembley Stadium; in Week 7 on Sunday, October 23, in the first-ever NFL game at Twickenham Stadium, the St. Louis Rams will host the NFC East team that finishes in the same spot in the standings as the Rams do in the NFC West based on the NFL's scheduling formula; and in Week 8 on Sunday, October 30, the Cincinnati Bengals will play their first international game when they host the Washington Commanders at Wembley.

The formula for the second game means that the Rams will face either the Philadelphia Eagles making their first regular-season trip to the UK, the Dallas Cowboys or New York Giants making return visits, or Washington becoming the first team to play in consecutive weeks in London.

Most likely Eagles is my guess

Yes, if the Rams finish first place in the West.

I hate playing that game. I really hope we can dodge it.

Yes, if the Rams finish first place in the West.

The Wahington team playing there back to back (potentially) is likely what the league would prefer. I think the possibility of having a team there for two games makes it less brutal. Maybe those teams have a TH night game the previous week and bye the next. Not unheard of for a team travelling across the coast and playing in similar locations to just stay the week

They're going to shoehorn this thing until an investment group commits to putting an expansion team in the UK.

I'm all for it if we can play the Jags again.
