Report: Chargers To Play Saints In London
27th January, 2008 - 4:04 pm

RealGM Staff Report - The Chargers will play the Saints in London in a regular season NFL game in October, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported on Sunday.

The newspaper said the October 26 contest could be formally announced in Glendale, Arizona, this week as part of the build-up to the Super Bowl next weekend.

"We want to go," Chargers president Dean Spanos told the Union-Tribune. "I'm cautiously optimistic."

According to the report, the Saints would be the 'home' team in London, sacrificing a game at the Superdome.

Well can't say I am happy we're losing a home game.

Agreed. And the food in English is horrible. I like the ladies, though.
