NFL in Ireland — quick answers
What time are NFL games in Ireland?
Sunday early games start at 18:00 Irish time. The full slot-by-slot conversion is below — times shift slightly when daylight saving changes on either side.
Why do NFL times keep changing in Ireland?
Daylight saving. When the clocks change in the home country or in Ireland (and they rarely change on the same weekend), every start time shifts by an hour for a few weeks. The table on this page is recalculated daily, so it's always the current conversion.
How long does an NFL game last?
About 3 hours 10 minutes of real time for 60 minutes of game clock — TV timeouts, reviews and halftime stretch it out. Plan a 3–3.5 hour window.
How many games are in an NFL season?
Each team plays 17 regular-season games over 18 weeks (September to early January), followed by the playoffs and the Super Bowl in February.
