Bengals should not have to play in London back to back years and really should not lose 2nd game in Cincy in 5 seasons.To some fine with this and talking attendance down in Cincy, then just move the Bengals to London forever. Why even have games in Cincy ? Oh, you people wanted top draft pick, Who Cares ? Let the top draft pick play in London. Play a game in London, play all the games in London. The London Bengals. Paul Brown Stadium only has 8 games all year, reduce it to 7 or none at all. They seem more concerned about not making money off a corporation name on stadium and keeping it Paul Brown Stadium, than they are actually playing games in this thing.
I say it's not fair to season ticket buyers and the city of Cincinnati to use Bengals as a constant London game.
Maybe some people in Cincinnati area might want to see Burrow if they draft him.
Or are Bengals moving to London ??? If so, just go. If not, then play the games in Cincinnati. These teams that haven't played in London yet, Make Them Go. I'll start to Boo the NFL Commish also if he starts sending Bengals to London all the time and lets other teams never go and their fans never have to give up home games.
Yes, ticket sales have been down but drafting Burrow will help. Putting a game in London takes away a whole game of drafting Burrow ticket sales. It just screws Cincinnati. The Cincinnati tax payers did not build this stadium for the games to be played in London. If this continues the NFL needs to give money to the tax payers of Cincinnati or be sued by the city council to reimburse the city on these lost home games. This stadium was NOT built by the tax payers to have the games played in London. Taxation without Representation.
Teams that have never gave up a Home Game to play in London or Mexico.
New York Giants
New York Jets
New England Patriots
Buffalo Bills
Philadelphia Eagles
Washington Redskins
Baltimore Ravens
( We see no New York Based NFL EVER gives up area home games )
Dallas Cowboys
( We see now that NFC East of NY Giants NEVER gives up home games }
Pittsburgh Steelers
Indy Colts
Chicago Bears
Detroit Lions
Seattle Seahawks
Arizona Cardinals
Tennessee Titans
Houston Texans
Denver Broncos
AND
Carolina Panthers have never played in London or Mexico
Neither has Green Bay Packers
And it may be Packers owned by the people of Green Bay won't allow it.
The teams that gave up the most home games are teams that moved such as Rams, Raiders, Chargers. So it makes you wonder why Jaguars have the most at 7. Jacksonville moving to another city has often been discussed. The city of Jacksonville should sue the NFL and owner and get some of the tax payer money back on the stadium they built. Tampa and Miami have gave up multiple home games. What is with Florida, are they playing in London during Hurricane season ?
There are 19 teams that have not given up one single home game yet. Not one New York area team and NFL headquarters in NY. The Rams, Raiders and Chargers in moving were probably glad to. What the deal is with Jacksonville, who knows ? Are they moving to London ? So with 19 teams never giving up a home game yet, IT IS NOT CINCINNATI'S TURN AGAIN.
NO WAY BENGALS SHOULD BE HOME TEAM IN LONDON OR MEXICO. NO WAY. That would be UNFAIR TO CITY OF CINCINNATI by NFL or BROWN FAMILY and both should be sued by the city for taking away games in Cincinnati stadium built with city tax money.
Jaguars of 7. Rams 5. Raiders 5. Well, the Rams and Raiders went through or going through moving to another city. Could it be the Jaguars owner is getting money under the table from London and NFL. If so, and Mike Brown tries to do it also, the city of Cincinnati should bulldoze down Paul Brown Stadium, and say play all your games over there, Mike.
