      Alongside this I would say you could do the Istanbul Jennaseries, the Warsaw Hussars, the Glasgow Claymores, the Prague Kings, and the Swiss Guard. (some of those are older names but all pretty cool)

      You did an awesome job with your logo names and renderings…let’s hope the NFL can either expand to some of these cities or create another European league. I know it’s coming, I’d just like to see it sooner rather than later. Nice work though.

    I’d make a few suggestions. Ireland, while a great country, may be to small to support an NFL franchise. It has only around 5 million people which is almost two million less than an already small market team like Tennessee, a better choice would be Amsterdam in the Netherlands which has a population of over 17 million. Frankfurt would also need a different name because while it sounds cool to us it would be incredibly confusing to frankfurter if they were playing the Philadelphia eagles. Something like raptors or hawks would have to do for languages sake.

    I originally got into American Football (and the NFL) by going to NFL Europe games. Got tickets to see the Scottish Claymores at Hampden when I was 8 or 9. Sadly think they were dissolved a year or so after I went but I ended up getting into playing and now coaching here in Scotland down the line. Would love to see a revival of that team, still have a bunch of old merch, jerseys etc

    This seems like it could be a league of its own. If I can propose some city/team suggestions to round up to 12 or 16 teams:
    (All suggestions in English)
    -Amsterdam Giants (folklore)
    -Rome Warriors (historical)
    -Oslo Vikings (historical)
    -Stockholm Wolves (animal)
    -Helsinki Maulers (animal/symbolized by a bear)
    -Moscow Cosmos (modern history)
    -Athens Lightning (mythological)
    -Prague Golems (folklore)
    -Lisbon Mouros (mythological)
    -Baltic Aitvaras (mythological)

      Most dont work because, as much as id like if american football is popular everywhere, its not. Nfl is only popular enough to support a team in ireland, spain, the uk, germany, switzerland, denmark and austria. Maybe poland and the netherlands if you push it hard
      France has rugby and they hate anything american so thats not happening
      Nobody cares about american football in italy or most of the countries you mentioned
      And with the current political climate, do you really think russians would be happy to hop on board with the most american sport ever?
      So as cool as this would be, its sadly not realistic

    So your video is already out of date. The ELF actually announced its 18th team (the Madrid Bravos) who will start next year. But its a cool idea to see the NFL try and expand abroad again. I can only hope they just take the existing Dublin Rebels, franchise from the AFI but that's a pipe dream, the term rebel means more to actual Irish people than shamrocks or leprechauns since the 1916 rising occurred in Dublin.
    Also if you were to put a team in London you NEED to call them the London Redcoats and put them in the AFC. The instant rivalries will be spectacular. Also the Aviva is more commonly called Landsdowne based on the old stadiums name. Its a bit like how the Superdome has brand name deals but nobody really uses it. Also the city of london isnt the same as London. Most Londoners would see the dragon as a Welsh not English symbol.
    Okay that's all, sorry for the extra edits.

    For the Munich team I would take the Olympiastadion Munich. It has a capacity of 77,337 and is currently unused. The Allianz Arena is the home of the soccer team FC Bayern München and there would be schedule conflicts. The Olympiastadion Munich als has more historical meaning to the city and the Mönche Munich would have their own stadium representing the coat of arms.

    I would love to see an European Expansion, inviting the best "soccer teams" in Europe to have their Championship of American Football. The Sport is already quite popular in Germany and England and if the main European Soccer teams agreed to join the competition, it would be a success. A Bayern Munchen fan, a Real Madrid or Barcelona, or Juventus or Milan fans would certainly welcome a competition in which all these teams wouls be represented. Just for simulation purpose, imagine if 32 european teams would be involved in such a tournament: Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munchen, Liverpool, Roma, PSG, Borussia Dortmund, Chelsea, Inter, Villarreal, Bayer Leverkusen, Manchester United, Barcelona, Benfica, FC Porto, Atletico Madfrid, RB Leipzig, West Ham, Atalanta, Arsenal, Juventus, Milan, Ajax Napoli, Club Brugge, Lazio, Eintracht Frankfurt, Sevilla, Rangers, Feyenoord, Real Sociedad, PSV (these 32 teams are ordered here according to their current UEFA Ranking...). If there was an association of NFL and these teams, what a successful Championship it would be !

    Cool video but there should definitely be more than 6 teams. On top of this, to make this actually work I feel like the best team from this league should play against the worst NFL team each year just to see how they match up. Would be cool if they added promotion/relegation if it got popular enough but obv that’s a long way out if that would ever happen

    I think 16 is way too many though 12 might work. Also of that list Moscow would not work (for obvious reasons) and neither would the Baltics (which are three separate countries). I would use the six that SM used and add five of yours and one of my own:
    1) London
    2) Dublin
    3) Munich
    4) Frankfurt
    5) Paris
    6) Helsinki
    7) Amsterdam Windmills (might have to rethink this one because you don't want to reuse Giants)
    8) Glasgow Cathures (my contribution)
    9) Prague Golems
    10) Stockholm Wolves
    11) Oslo Arrows (my contribution as not to reuse Vikings)
    12) Danish Kings (my contribution)
    A South division could be added later.

    For Madrid, the Santiago Bernabeau is a better stadium choice, as it is actually getting the same setup as Tottenham. That means they have retractable fields and turf underneath the regular soccer pitch. A London team would most likely continue at Tottenham Spurs Stadium instead of Wembley due to smaller size and a turf field. Also, for those cities that had previous NFLE teams, going with the older name will make sense since they still have football teams that use those names.
