Serious question: Why do they (NFL, pronouns pal) go through the charade of releasing the schedule at a certain time, when the schedule has been leaked by "showtime"?

5 prime time games this year. I might have to visit the Link again for a Sunday night game.

I'd say 12-4. Split vs Rams, Saints, and 2 toss ups.

Toss ups:

Falcons (see Steelers)
Browns
Eagles
Steelers(only because it is 10)
Vikings

Those 10am games are going to be killer.

Things I like: late bye, lots of prime time games, mostly a home/away/home/away pattern, looks like no real bad weather situations (too hot or too cold).

Things I don't: 4 x 10am starts (though I think we have largely overcome that in the RW era), week 12 stretch of Eagles-Vikings-Rams-Panthers could be really tough (but we have also seen these presumably tough stretches end up not being that way many times before), stupid TNF on 3 days rest.

Every year there are some teams you think will be good but aren't (and vice versa) and you always get 8 home and 8 away so I don't really get too wrapped in how the schedule falls in that regard -- mainly focus on weather, timing of the bye, and travel. We have some long east coast trips, but the only one that's after another road game is CAR following a relatively short trip to LA. Overall, I'm content.

Now let's have a great draft and hopefully no major injuries in OTAs & camp!

I've been known to see things from a different perspective.

I wasn't pleased when I first saw the schedule about the week 11 bye but now, after thinking about it more. I love it because it gives us a week to rest up before hitting a huge push for the playoffs.

I think if we are at least 6-4 going into the bye. We should be just peachy.

Kind of a tough schedule IMO.

I expect the 49ers to be much more competitive and if the Cardinals take Kyler Murray and he thrives in the NFL, that could make Arizona a much different team.

Our non-conference road games are also quite daunting. Steelers, Browns, Falcons, Eagles and Panthers will all probably be playoff contenders or better.

Man, I'm so excited for the home late night game on prime time. Who else is looking forward to hearing the whole sports world bitching and complaining about Seattle home field and the referees?

Things we will be blamed for

-Seattle shouldn't have that TD, referees once again cheating for Seattle. (um what about these other plays where Seattle got F...nothing :think:

-fake noise

-And Seattle once again given another WIN by the cheating on prime time.


GO HAWKS :D

I personally have not seen much of this type of crying. Only by some very stupid people that no one should listen to anyway. Trolls will always be trolls unless you blow them off for what they really are, Bias blind trolls that don't know football from one of the holes in their head.

Maybe. I also think Murray will get KILLED behind Arizona's abysmal OLINE.
