THE NFL is continuing its tradition of playing international games, but this year has one especially rough matchup.

Football fans in Germany will be subject to perhaps the worst game ever played on European soil.

After Week 1 of the NFL season, it is safe to assume that two of the worst teams in the league have already been decided.

Both the New York Giants and the Carolina Panthers played terrible games in their season-openers.

The Giants lost 28-6 to the Minnesota Vikings and showed no semblance of an offense during the game.

The Panthers got crushed 47-10 by the New Orleans Saints and couldn’t play competent football on offense or defense.

Unfortunately for football fans, these two teams have to face each other down the line.

During Week 10 of the NFL season, the Giants and Panthers will jet off to Munich to face off in front of a German crowd.

The game might scare German fans away from football, as it is entirely possible that both teams are winless going into the matchup.

NFL fans are already lamenting the game nine weeks ahead of schedule, and shared their thoughts on social media.

“Germany, look away,” one fan said.

“For the No.1 draft pick,” another fan said.

“This could be interpreted as an act of war,” a third fan said.

“The Tank bowl came early this year,” a fourth fan said.

“Good thing it’s at 6:30. No need to wake up for this game,” a fifth fan said.

Both the Giants and Panthers saw awful performances from their quarterbacks in Week 1.

For the Giants, Daniel Jones threw for just 186 yards and couldn’t score a touchdown.

He also threw two interceptions on his way to the 28-6 loss.

For the Panthers, Bryce Young threw only 161 yards and also couldn’t score a touchdown.

Young matched Jones by throwing two interceptions in his season opener as well.

One of these teams will get a win in the Week 10 matchup, or they will find a way to tie.

It seems likely though that whoever loses the game will end up with the No. 1 overall pick.
