The NFL has confirmed the two games that will be played at Wembley Stadium in London in Week Three and Week Four of the 2017 season.

The Jaguars will “host” the Ravens in Week Three on Sunday, September 24, and the Dolphins will “host” the Saints a week later on October 1.

Jacksonville has agreed to give up a home game each year to play in London. The Dolphins agreed to give up one home game as part of the deal that awarded Miami the Super Bowl in 2020.

The NFL has also confirmed that the Browns will play a “home” game against the Vikings at London’s Twickenham Stadium, and the Rams will play a “home” game against the Cardinals there. Those games are expected to take place in Weeks 7-8, although specifics have not been announced.

The Rams are giving up one home game in each year that they’re playing in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The Browns gave up a home game just because they’re a rebuilding team that doesn’t have a huge ticket demand.
The Raiders are also expected to play a “home” game against the Patriots in Mexico City in 2017.

Looks like another early bye week for us.... ridiculous.
 
Hopefully we won't have to travel to London again for a while.
 
Meh doubt il even go. Costs a fortune to get to London + I am about to move even futher away and have a wedding to pay for

Dont like the idea of the international games, but I went to the previous fins games :idk:
 
Why do we keep playing there? London is one of my favorite cities in the world but just curious how we get 3 games in 4 years there?

That most likely means another early bye. WTF, can we ever get a late bye or at least in the middle (weeks 8/9)?

Yes, week 5 will be our bye if they stay consistent and give the London teams their byes the weekend after they play. And to answer your question, we aren't the Patriots.

Patriots bye weeks in recent years...
2011: week 7
2012: week 9
2013: week 10
2014: week 10
2015: week 4 (Played week 3 in London vs Jags)
2016: week 9

Dolphins bye weeks same time
2011: week 5
2012: week 7
2013: week 6
2014: week 5 (played in London week 4)
2015: week 5 (played in London week 4)
2016: week 8
2017: week 5 (will play in London week 4)

Mind you, there are London games played later in the season but we seemingly are always given an early one...
