Cowboys 4-3 record vs Jaguars.

Unfortunately, the flawed manner in which
the NFL reports games played away from
both teams' homes is said to be a home
game for one of the teams gives the false
impression that the game was played where
it wasn't actually played.

The above history says the Cowboys win vs
the Jaguars November 9 2014 was a home
game for the Jaguars. It wasn't. It was actu-
ally played in London, as shown at this link:

Why in the world the NFL called that game
a home game for the Jaguars is beyond me,
a flaw in the manner in which the NFL acts
as if a game played in neither team's home
is a home game for one of the teams when
it's not played anywhere near that team's
home.

The NFL should change their methodology
to accurately convey that a game played far
away from both teams' homes is *NOT* a
home game for either team, it's a game be-
tween two teams where neither team is the
so-called home team.

Jaguars vs Cowboys in London is an accurate
way to report that neither team is the home
team. Calling the Jaguars the home team
when the game was played in London is ab-
surd pretense, as are all games played away
from both teams' homes.
