Next years opponets

[Judge Fudge]

Home: Bears, Lions, Titans, Jaguars, Saints, Rams, Cardinals, 49ers. Away: Vikings, Packers, Colts, Texans, Washington Football Team, Rams, Cardinals, 49ers.

Id say 5/6 prime time. Saints, Titans, Packers, Colts, One or Both of Cardinals

I believe the max # of prime time games a team can have is 5 (notwithstanding exceptions made this season due to CV19). The Colts matchup doesn't look like one all that fit for TV unless Luck comes out of retirement. Saints and Packers seem like slam dunks. There's usually a couple divisional games in prime time (this year it was AZ and LAR I believe). Even though the Texans sucked this year, I could see that one getting some love due to RW vs D Watson.

Hopefully one of these years we figure out how to win in GB.

I'm thinking NFC Championship is when Russ takes care of the Demon on his back called Lambeau Field.

I get your point about the colts.

I like the Titans game because it is " The Dump Truck vs the Smack Hawk Defense"

That would be as epic as epic gets. It was refreshing to see Russell allowed to do his thing in the 4th qtr yesterday. Of course, that was after 3 pretty frustrating quarters of watching us scared of our own shadow on offense. We won't be able to get away with that against GB. Probably not NO or TB either. This is my biggest worry of the playoffs right now -- 6 or 7 weeks of good defense against mostly ho-hum QBs has PC convinced we can go back to rope-a-dope and take home the hardware.

Shouldn't there be another game for the extra game being added next season?

Is that a done deal? 17 games just seems really weird. Not saying it won't happen, but is there a single pro sports league with an odd # of games? Some teams will get 9 home games and others only 8?? Seems really jacked up to me.

NFL plans to expand regular season to 17 games per team in 2021

The NFL is planning to expand the regular season to 17 games in 2021 -- a historic move that would generate new revenue and could at least slightly soften an anticipated drop in the salary cap next year, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport report

www.nfl.com

That's all I got, plus the below. Now maybe things changed due to C-19, but from what I've read it was to start next season.

I think they agreed to come up with a scheduling rotation but no vote to follow through with adding a game.

I'd say Saints, Packers, Rams, Cards(Thurs) and Titans(Mon)

If the extra "crossover" game goes in order of NFC 1 vs AFC 1, NFC 2 vs AFC 2, etc.... then we should play Pittsburgh since both them and us are the #3 seeds. I think that's how it works anyway.

Who gets the home game?

Who gets the home game?

Could be neutral field, mexico, uk, canada, the moon

I hear the moon is nice in September.

 

[dkmightyhammer]

I hear the moon is nice in September.

Kicking on the moon would be amazing. 200+ yard field goals all day.

 

[dkmightyhammer]

Who gets the home game?

Good question. Not sure how that works. Maybe a neutral field like @MrSnuggles2k2 said would make sense. If Seattle and Pittsburgh played their game next season in Edmonton or Calgary that would be great for me. I think I'll pitch that to Goodall and see what he thinks.

If the NFL made it a two game series than a home and home would be cool. A coin flip to see who gets the first game at home this upcoming year and on the road the following season. Than I guess repeat the process after the second year.

Can't do that, you know the Pats would use a double headed coin to get both home games.

Maybe Seattle should try this

Sure does, it will only make the Hawks better in my eyes. either they take another step or they don't and i think the defense next year will be good like how it is now good. So top 10 easy.

*fingers crossed*
