The 9:30am ET kickoff slot is back for the NFL this wee as the New York Giants “visit” the Los Angeles Rams in Twickenham Stadium in Twickenham, England. The game is the first to be played in a stadium in England that is not the national soccer team’s home, Wembley Stadium. In Twickenham, the game moves to southwest London, and into the home of England’s rugby team. Instead of the modern, 90,000 seat, nine-year old Wembley, today’s game should have a different feel in the 107-year-old, constantly modified, 82,000 seat bowl.
This should be a fun, new NFL experience as the game moves from Wembley to Twickenham.
