Only once during the NFL’s almost 20-year history of bringing regular-season games to London has one of the teams gone on to win the Super Bowl at the end of that season. The 2025 Denver Broncos could well become the second.
That might seem like a ludicrous claim after a nervy, thoroughly unconvincing 13-11 victory over the hapless, winless New York Jets at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but while the now 4-2 Broncos were undoubtedly slightly fortunate to leave the UK as victors, you could argue they are, in other ways, unfortunate not to be 6-0.
