Episode Details

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell just dropped a bombshell: the league has concrete plans to permanently place teams outside the U.S., not just one but multiple. With nine international regular-season games already on tap in Australia, France, and more coming soon to Scotland, China, and Wales, the NFL is moving beyond exhibition matches to global expansion. While past attempts like the World Football League fizzled, this time it’s different — with Mexico City, Germany, and England leading the pack as prime candidates. But don’t count on easy wins: 15-hour flights, time zones, and massive logistical hurdles stand in the way. Still, with supersonic travel on the horizon and a vision of overseas divisions and even a Super Bowl abroad, the NFL is betting big on becoming truly global — and that could reshape where new teams land in America too.
