All 3 NFL games in London to kick off at 9:30 a.m. ET in 2015

The experiment was a success.
The NFL has announced that all three games in London, England scheduled during the 2015 season will kick off at 9:30 a.m. ET.
Last season the Detroit Lions-Atlanta Falcons game started at 9:30 a.m. ET and the response was overwhelmingly positive. Now three Sundays will feature NFL football from morning until midnight.
The New York Jets will face the Miami Dolphins on Oct. 4, the Buffalo Bills and Jacksonville Jaguars will play Oct. 25 and the Lions and Kansas City Chiefs match up Nov. 1.
It seems like a no-brainer for the NFL to give London fans a night game while creating a morning time slot for viewers in North America.
