Wish the Steelers would come across the pond.
The Buccaneers are the 'home' team in this one, which means they're giving up one of their actual 8 home games at Raymond James stadium. The NFL usually gets one of the smaller market clubs to do this (host a game in London or Toronto, etc).
Also, they'll never have a 'divisional' matchup overseas, and the club being asked to 'lose' a home game, will NOT give up a game against a 'marquee' club, like the Steelers. So... my guess is, while the Steelers are perennial contenders, you won't see them over in London.
