And yet NFL Europe games had a higher average attendance than Portland's "record breaking" USFL numbers.

It's not fair to compare to NFL Europe to an NFL team in London. It would be like telling a city that they wouldn't support an NBA team because they didn't support the local NBA D League team. It's a misconception that fans internationally will just accept any football. They know that the best players are in the NFL so that's who they want to see.

To me, the biggest hurdle for a team in London will really be the TV contract. I don't know how that will work because European TV deals are much more complicated than in the US
