I figured that if Seattle won yesterday that the NFL would put us in Seattle Week 1 next year but since then I've learned that we're already scheduled to play San Francisco that week (I bet the NFL is regretting that one now). Looking at that Melbourne game, the logistics are going to be a nightmare. It's a 15 hours non-stop flight from LA. I asked Gemini (Google's AI tool) what the likely game time would be and got this (see below). I don't see the NFL showing a Saturday night game when college football is in full swing. If that's the case, then it's a Sunday night game. That means the team would get home sometime Monday afternoon after that long flight. I hope to hell that the NFL gives us an easy home game Week 2. Otherwise, this could be ugly.

I'm not worried, they'll figure it out, they won't screw over the Rams and Niners with inadequate rest afterward.
