Most folks don’t like it; most folks hate it. But these games aren’t going anywhere. In fact, there will only be more.
NFL regular season games being played overseas aggravate fans of the “home” team. Joe receives it. That’s one less party day that you’ve waited for all year long.
But Joe also receives that there is a whole lot of gold in them thar hills in the Alps, in the Serranía del Ajuscos, in the Sierra de Guadarramas, in the Serra dos Órgãos and in the Blue Mountains.
NFL owners aren’t known for turning down cash laying on the sidewalk.
What does this have to do with the Bucs? Well, two teams the Bucs will play on the road this fall, the Lions and the Dixie Chicks, will have home games in Europe.
The Lions will host a game in Munich. The Dixie Chicks will host a game in Madrid. Both are on the Bucs’ 2026 road schedule.
The Bucs have eight road games this year. Two opponents will host a game in Europe. So that’s a one-in-four chance, 25 percent, the Bucs will necessary to have their passports up to date. (Yes, Joe knows the math on probability doesn’t add up that way, but it’s fun to consider of it that way nonetheless).
If the Bucs play in Munich, Joe can only advise fans to start seeing for loose modify in between your couch pillows.
Back in 2022, Joe didn’t know what to expect covering the Bucs in Munich. The experience blew Joe away. Not just a football thing, but a life experience.
If the Bucs play in Munich, Joe just has one word to offer.
“Go!”
