Since the NFL games occur once or twice a year people will flock to the stadium in order to see … Once you increase the supply the demand will begin to level off. So that is essentially why and how the NFLE failed. American football had no tradition in Europe and it’s hard to build a fan base when the majority of the population don’t even know what the basic rules of the game are. But part of me still gets upset at the way it ended. Part of the reason why the NFL regular season games in Wembley work so well is that the are rare and not an every week occasional. But NFL Europe alums don’t see why the core developmental concepts there couldn’t float in principle here. Part of the reason NFL Europe failed is that there wasn't enough vested interest in sustaining an entire NFL season. In the early ’90s, the N.F.L.

As I rembemer the league did several things wrong. wagered that North America and Europe would embrace a brand of football that was of lesser quality than the one the league’s 32 teams play in the United States. Same calendar, different country. Ultimately the NFLE would have failed regardless of such stupidity due to the reasons mentioned above and looking at it now, the situation we have now with the NFL International Series is much, much better than the NFLE ever was.
