The Washington Commanders are set to face the Indianapolis Colts in London as part of the NFL’s international schedule, and Chris Russell believes Washington’s passionate traveling fan base could make the matchup feel much closer to a home game than a neutral-site contest. While discussing the league’s newly released international slate, Russell voices his continued frustration with the NFL’s growing emphasis on overseas games, arguing that the expansion comes at the expense of season ticket holders and traditional home-field advantages. The conversation also examines the extensive travel demands placed on teams across the league this season, including which franchises are expected to log the most miles throughout the year and how travel fatigue could impact performance. Listeners join the discussion to share their reactions to the international schedule, including one Commanders season ticket holder who expresses frustration over being charged additional costs connected to the London game despite already investing in a full season package.
