This week Mexico City was rocked by a 7.1 earthquake that took down building and has killed hundreds. Among the structures potentially damaged is Azteca stadium where the Raiders are scheduled to play this season.

This is to be the second season in a row the Raiders will play in Mexico City. They faced the Texans at Azteca Stadium last season.

Shortly after the earthquake, the Raiders issued a statement.

Should the damage to the stadium be extensive, the NFL would consider moving the game to Oakland. It is, after all, a Raiders ‘home’ game.
