Why would Packer and Eagle fans not tune in, week 1? There is apparently 20M people in Brazil. 17% of them fans of the 2 teams listed above. Why would they intentionally go Browns as an opponent and drop from 17% to 5.2%? It's all about 💰 🤑 💸 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're going to laugh if the NFL is more concerned about attracting the other 5.8B people on the planet, then the 336M that live in the United States? 👌 Get ready to laugh.

Danger Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Why is THIS an Eagles home game. Make it a Packers home game FFS. Thanks NFL, ruining parity again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soko Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Why did it have to be opening weekend? Seems kind of like a middle finger to the Eagles fans. NFL expansion is a fine thing, but would they have gotten a different turnout in Brazil if this wasn’t Week 1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonserinNC Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Surprised by the amount of hate for this, Its a luxury trip, private jets, media events. Creating millions of Eagles fans(and hopefully Packers haters). Jersey sales, all of it is beneficial.....I just dont get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is objectively a disadvantage. The Eagles would have played the Pack in the Linc this year. Now we get them at a neutral site. It is what it is as a lot of teams get home games robbed from them every year... but it still sucks for the fans of the team who live in the states. We don't care about the potential benefit in revenue to the Eagles organization(which I have a hard time believing it really does net more money than just a regular home game).... we just want to see our team win football games lol. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which can't be helped other teams have had to do it like Jacksonville in many years. but what's worse is that they chose our opponent to be the most liked team in Brazil because of their colors..... so it basically becomes a road game for us.
