The NFL has also talked internally about playing games in other cities in the U.S. which do not have pro teams, with some buzz about playing a game at Notre Dame or Alabama, as well as Hawaii and cities in Canada. It is viewed as a unique and profound way to grow the game globally and extend the reach of sales, merchandising and broadcast rights around the globe, with there only so much more room for growth within America.

What Pro team could fill up BDS? Not sure they could

Falcons/Saints in BDS sounds kinda interesting imo

Field conditions should be better than in Mexico City.

Who wants to cough up a home game?
You could get San Diego (Los Angeles)? Miami?
Plus, what guarantees must be placed as far as ticket sales?
Would Tuscaloosa be forced to guarantee,say 75,000, at $150 per ticket?

I want to see them play in Alaska and Montana. Those blokes could use a pro sporting event there once in a while I'm sure.

I don't get the ND one if it's because they don't have a pro team near by. They have the colts about 2-2.5 hours down US31 and about 2 hours from Chicago. Didn't read the article because the premise sounds dumb. Why even have teams based where they are now.

A Saints game in Tiger Stadium would be pretty fricking rowdy.

Browns should have played games at Ohio Stadium for a long time
Tampa Bay should be playing literally anywhere

Should do a cowboys/Texans game in San Antonio, Monterrey, or Austin.

Screw the nfl.

Dallas vs one of the southern teams would do well too

Patriots v Cowboys would probably bring out all the wagoners.

Let the Jags play in Birmingham since they almost got them instead of Jacksonville.

Notre Dame and Alabama would whore out their sacred fields to nfl teams? Pass. Send their arse to legion field.

They couldn't sell enough hats and t-shirts at Walmart to make a game at BDS profitable.
The season ticket holders won't be there. The other 99% of Bama fans have never been to a Bama game. Why would they go to a NFL game?

Alabama fans need disco tech lighting to hold their attention, and use GPS mapping to make sure their fans don’t leave early.
I can only imagine the disinterest in seeing the Jaguars play the Cardinals in BDS.

Was anyone here in attendance for the (Saban-led) Dolphins beating the displaced Saints in TS? Most have been a great atmosphere

Hawaii is gorgeous, don't get me wrong, and the stadium there has some decent size to it... but that place is a dump.
I mean that quite literally. I've watched a few games there and every game has featured trash on the field.
As for our neighbors to the North, the problem with having games in Canada is you are probably just talking about Vancouver. Only Vancouver and Edmonton have NFL sized stadiums and while Edmonton is a very nice place it is out in the middle of nowhere and is an frozen wasteland for most of the football season.
The big Eastern Canadian cities have tiny stadiums all things considered. Toronto, for example, only seats 25k. That is less then Arkansas State's stadium.
