The NFL is chewing up Wembley Stadium's turf

Here's a close-up of the turf at Wembley Stadium.

So halftime was just a bunch of folks picking up clumps of grass.

Football fan reaction.

Wembley Stadium isn't designed for American football so players who are that heavy are obviously going to destroy the turf #DETvsATL

Wembley grounds crew shouldn't feel too badly about the turf. 2-3 American stadiums are worse and they only play football! #BEARDOWN
