Getty ImagesIt’s become a given over the last decade that certain franchises never will give up a home game to play in another country. Teams like the Cowboys, Packers, Patriots, and Steelers are seen as being unofficially exempt from the rotation.
It could be time to remove the Steelers from that list.

The answer to this is obvious. Eventually, as in soon, the league will eliminate one or possibly two preseason games and expand the regular season to 17 games with each team playing one neutral site game. This way the league could get exposure in outside markets both in and out of the country and no team would be put at the disadvantage of losing a valuable home game.

If anything, go their for a preseason game. Keep the regular season games at Heinz Field.

Well that sucks. How about giving up a road game instead?

I'm with Steeldude on this one.

This isn't about making sense. This is about what's best for the Steelers! :chuckle:

This is still the, NATIONAL football league. NOT International.

Bad enough with the Bills experiment in Toronto and the garbage games in London. Not a fan of this at all.

Not really a fan of the idea either...but the superbowl champs are generally referred to as "The world champion..yada yada..."

I'm good with it if they make it against the Bungles. I've seen how the fans react to a dirty player in soccer, Burfict may get burned alive on the 50 at halftime.
