The Cincinnati Bengals are officially heading to Madrid, Spain this season to take on the Atlanta Falcons, and there’s a lot to unpack.

In today’s episode, we break down the pros and cons of the NFL continuing to expand globally. From the league’s nonstop push for growth and revenue to the possibility of eventually having a permanent overseas franchise, there are some exciting opportunities — and some serious concerns.
We discuss why Joe Burrow reportedly wanted the Madrid game, the NFL’s growing international schedule, and concerns about teams eventually moving overseas. We also dive into why Bengals season ticket holders may not be thrilled about losing future home games to international matchups and why Cincinnati could actually benefit competitively from playing Atlanta in Spain instead of Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
There’s also the bigger picture of what this means for the Bengals brand internationally. The NFL clearly sees global expansion as a major priority, and having stars like Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins on an international stage only helps grow the franchise worldwide.
We also talk about whether the NFL could eventually push international expansion too far and how much influence franchise quarterbacks like Burrow may actually have when these decisions are made.
Plus, we look at the Bengals’ recent history against the Falcons and why Cincinnati should feel confident heading into the matchup.
