Chiefs to Host 2015 Game in London

As part of the NFL's International Series the Chiefs are headed to London to host the Lions on November 1, 2015

The National Football League announced on Thursday that the Kansas City Chiefs have been selected to host a regular-season game overseas for the first time in franchise history. The club will take on the Detroit Lions in London on Nov. 1, 2015. The Week 8 contest will be part of the NFL’s International Series played at Wembley Stadium, one of three NFL games taking place in the United Kingdom in 2015. The game will be televised live locally and nationally on FOX.

“It is an honor for Kansas City to represent the NFL on an international stage,” Chiefs President Mark Donovan said. "We are excited for the opportunity this creates for our fans, our city and the global growth of the Chiefs brand.”

Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt has played a key role in expanding the NFL’s footprint overseas. He has served as the International Committee’s Chairman since 2011. The International Series has grown from one regular season game in 2007 to three games in 2014. In total, 17 clubs have played games in London since 2007. Six NFL franchises will play at Wembley stadium in 2015. The Chiefs will host the Detroit Lions, the Miami Dolphins will host the New York Jets in a division matchup and the Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Buffalo Bills.

NFL International was formed in October of 1996. The league has held at least one regular-season game in London each year since 2007.

Clark Hunt in 2011 on a London game

''It's something we may be interested in. It's something we would be open to. I definitely can't sit here and say that we've made the decision that it would be good for us. There are a lot of things that go into that decision. It's something we would want to discuss with the community. We understand that taking a home game away from the market affects people. We would want to make sure there would be support for it.''

Clark Hunt in 2011 on losing a home game

''That's something that weighs very much in my mind. 'We have a tremendous home-field advantage at Arrowhead. That would be one of the main considerations.''

I understand... but ppl can't get angry with others for seeing this as an opportunity. I travel for the chiefs anyway, being in NY... I'm stoked for an excuse to go to London, but I get the other side of the argument too.

Heh, I would've never guessed that would be down your alley. We have something in common. They're my 2nd favorite band, and I'm anxiously awaiting their new album.

I'm going to have to put this on my calendar. A friend of mine went to see the Falcons over there and had a blast.

He said the fans have no idea when to cheer, which makes the game all the more fun.

WTF do they use the word "Host"?

Are they trying to make us feel better about ****ing us out of a home game by claiming we're "hosting"?

I imagine half the crowd going to the Jaguars game will feel gipped because they thought they bought tickets to a car show

They know that the Chiefs are going to be a real threat next year so they are trying to set Manning up for another run when he fails to get a ring again this year.

Eh. It wasn't bad, but out of all the places I've been internationally London ranks absolute last.
