After the first brace in autumn in Frankfurt/Main, only one NFL game is expected to be played on German soil once more in 2024.
“There are two this year, we’ll probably go back to one the following year,” said Brett Gosper, European head of the US professional football league, to SID at the SPOBIS Conference in Düsseldorf.
Last year, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, led by the now retired superstar Tom Brady, staged the German premiere in front of a full house in a duel with the Seattle Seahawks in Munich. “The atmosphere was incredible,” said Gosper in retrospect, emphasizing the good TV ratings – also in the USA.
On November 5, Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs with star quarterback Patrick Mahomes will meet the Miami Dolphins in Frankfurt’s Deutsche Bank Park, followed by the New England Patriots – Indianapolis Colts game on November 12 at the same place.
“We have great match-ups,” said Gosper, due to the successful Munich game, “expectations are high. We are very focused on our strategy of playing main round games here.”
