Action-packed from start to finish, the NFL brings the excitement of American football to legions of fans around the globe. Strategy, strength and skill come together in a short, intense season that is as entertaining as it is unpredictable.

The 32 teams play a 16-game season followed by the Wild Card and Divisional Playoffs, the Conference Championships and Super Bowl XLIII from Tampa, Florida. The season officially closes February 8 ^th with the all-star AFC-NFC Pro Bowl in Honolulu, Hawaii.

A highlight for international viewers-and European spectators--will come on October 26th when the San Diego Chargers play the New Orleans Saints at London's legendary (and recently rebuilt) Wembley Stadium.
