In the most tangible piece of evidence yet that the NFL wants to keep playing games in London C. J. Beathard Jersey , the league has paid for an NFL-only field to be on the grounds of the new soccer stadium for Tottenham Hotspur.
New pictures of the stadium, which is still being built, show the FieldTurf field that the NFL will play on. The stadium will be able to switch between that field for NFL games and a grass field for soccer games.
One of the complaints about American football in London has been that the type of grass pitch that soccer teams use does not have the proper footing for American football. That results in players slipping and sliding, and the middle of the pitch getting torn up. Nobody is happy with that.
So the NFL is investing in a field that is specifically designed for American football. That field will be used for the first time on October 14 Xavien Howard Jersey , when the Seahawks face the Raiders.
The Buccaneers may not have quarterback Jameis Winston for the first three games of the season. And it may not matter very much.
The Bucs open with games at the Saints, at home against the Eagles, and at home against the Steelers, on a Monday night. Even with Winston DeAndre Washington Jersey , the Bucs may be staring at an 0-3 start. Without him, an outcome of no wins in three weeks becomes even more likely.
The fact that the Week Three game falls on a Monday will give him one less day to get ready for Week Four, at Chicago. That could make it much harder to avoid a Week Four loss, and it could make the team more tempted to give him a fourth game off Willie Snead IV Jersey , especially if Ryan Fitzpatrick is playing well and especially since the bye comes in Week Five.
So the start of the season could end up being an awkward and futile one for the Bucs. And if they lose the first three games, their margin for error will shrink considerably, especially in a division that sent three teams to the playoffs in 2017.
It also will increase the pressure on coach Dirk Koetter and G.M. Jason Licht, either or both of whom could be entering make-or-break seasons. If the first three games break against them Alex Lewis Jersey , the end may be coming sooner than later.
