It must be the time zones that are a big factor. Only 3 hour difference when going coast to coast but 5 hours here.

When English teams have to travel to Azerbaijan and Israel for European football the time difference is only 2/3 hours

I would argue it is only a 3.5 hour time difference as the kick off is 2.30pm rather than the typical 6pm BST

And they used to have them at 6pm so teams could just stay in US time

My guess (and it is just a guess) was if you just come late you don't have to acclimatise. Presumably the longer you're in a different timezone, the more your body reacts to that new timezone?

Agree - and as someone said earlier the afternoon games help with that.

Think it was the Vikings that arrived late and they dropped a lot of chances in the first 3 quarters last week. When they came 5 years ago to play the Browns they looked jaded on the day too, but it was that year the Browns W-0.

As Rodgers was at Wembley last night I am assuming they didn't just fly in.
