The Jets are playing a London game, too! Jags are playing two overseas games this year. One step closer to moving all their home games overseas!

Also Netflix is getting two Christmas Day games.

its one home and one away for the Jags but sure

ok maybe

Oh, the Bears are giving up a home game to play the Jags, huh. Interesting decision.

it was all a long con to troll Germany, well played NFL

Man Germany got hosed

Germany can get to know the Giants on Hard Knocks.

Wonder what favor McCaskey called in to get the Giants to volunteer.

Better question is why would anyone care about watching a dead in the water 4-13 team on Hard Knocks.

There isn't anything even slightly appealing about the Giants except "New York".

Yeah, the Giants won't even be the entertaining type of bad. Just a plain old boring bad team.

Daboll, the front office, and Jones are all gone after this year too. It's just a picture of a franchise before yet another reset.

league doing anything to keep rodgers out of metlife

(i dunno if its a home game for the jets just that was my first thought lol)

Looks like it's a Vikings home game

catch me @ Dallas on Oct 13th

Oh hey the Titans actually got a primetime game! I thought we'd be one of the teams who got shut out this year.

Meanwhile the Cowboys have six lawl

Literally why wtf that's so dumb

I would have bet my lifes savings on the Chiefs having a bye after their first MNF game and having Thursday as the opener.

instead I bet on FFIE stock. Whoa. Guess I have some extra money to buy Lego Baraddur

I know right? Now the Panthers can suck in Germany too.

Also straight up hosed by the NFL with 0 prime time games, though it doesn't surprise me.

I feel like having the worst record in the league is an instant "no prime time games the next year" unless you draft a star QB

Oh, was definitely not questioning it. Look at the previous teams with abysmal records...

2008 Lions: 0-16
2009 Lions: No prime time slots

2009 Rams: 1-15
2010 Rams: 1 prime time game and they had to earn it (Sunday night season finale against Seattle for the NFC West)

2010 Panthers: 2-14
2011: 0 prime time slots

2016 Browns: 1-15
2017: 0 prime time slots (0-16)
2018: 0 prime time slots (lol NFL Network is not prime time)

If Carolina wants to earn respect again, start winning.

yeah its why the Bears get a ton of primetime games

What the hell were those Giants uniforms and are they openly competing for worst uniform of all time

My way too early NFL Predictions:

AFC North:
Ravens - 14-3
Bengals - 11-6
Browns - 8-9
Steelers - 7-10

AFC West:
Chiefs - 14-3
Chargers - 9-8
Raiders - 5-12
Broncos - 4-13

AFC East:
Bills - 12-5
Jets - 12-5
Dolphins - 11-6
Patriots - 4-13

AFC South:
Texans - 10-7
Jaguars - 10-7
Colts - 10-7
Titans - 6-11

1- Ravens
2- Chiefs
3- Bills
4- Texans
5- Jets
6- Bengals
7- Dolphins

NFC North:
Lions - 12-5
Packers - 9-8
Bears - 6-11
Vikings - 3-14

NFC West:
49ers - 14-3
Rams - 9-8
Seahawks - 6-11
Cardinals - 5-12

NFC East:
Eagles - 14-3
Cowboys - 13-4
Commanders - 4-13
Giants - 3-14

NFC South:

Saints - 6-11
Panthers - 4-13

1- 49ers
2- Eagles
3- Lions
4- Falcons
5- Cowboys
6- Rams
7- Packers

Jets 12-5 surely that can't be right

They won 7 games last year with Zach Wilson and Trevor Siemian.

The Jets have 6 primetime games in the first 11 weeks

League really wants to suck Rodgers off before he goes down again huh

You'd think they'd have learned a lesson from last season and maybe dialed that number back a bit!

its not Lambo money but its Lexus money

sorry umm football lets see Harrison Butker has sent the Chiefs fan base into full Handmaids Tale mode and its not a pretty sight

Patriots offense is better than last year. Its at least no worse because it was pretty much as bad as it gets. Even if they somehow put up worse stats, it doesn't matter - it can't be effectively worse in terms of winning games.

The defense was OK last year though it was missing Gonzo and Judon most of the time.

So while I think the Pats aren't very good yet have a pretty tough schedule, I could seem them being surprising and winning like 5-6 games.

I've seen the two schools of thought - you draft Maye #3 to start him week 1. You want excitement, you want people getting his jersey in the pro shop, you want him to learn on the job. Alternatively, you let him learn and develop his footwork on the sideline. If he spends the first season running for his life and trying to do too much with his arm, you basically have Zach Wilson.

really want to see Brissett starting most of the season.

I prefer Brisket starting and keeping the job for the entire year. I don't know how improved we are at offense but it surely can't be worse than Bill kneecapping BOB or hiring Matt Patricia as OC and stacking the WR room with WR3s.

Everyone keeps saying Drake Maye isn't ready and frankly they're right. Maye should get some game action late in the season but not early.

The Steelers play the entirety of their AFC North schedule in the last 7 weeks

The only two non-division games in that stretch are the Eagles and Chiefs

Schedule makers were wild this year

By then Fields will be starting so that checks out

Bears also play all their division games from Week 11 on.

6 division games in 8 weeks is wild. At least will let Caleb hopefully be fully in rhythm by then

Either that or the Bears O Line gets him injured and they just feed the NFC North late wins

Who's even their backup

Tyson Bagent!

Who is Tyson Bagent the name sounds vaguely familiar

Bagent went 2-2 last year and at least looked somewhat competent, so there's that at least lol.

Bears O line is actually decent, provided they don't get ravaged by injury again. They at least have somewhat of an answer at centre this year!!

Oh yeah the Secret Bagent Man

The Chiefs have been on a real roll this offseason (even if being arrested for weed is lol)

100 year anniversary uniforms. They are basically a super throwback on the level of the crap Broncos, packers dot, and Steelers bee uniforms.

Personally I'd say the Giants ones are better than all of those.

Take me there, coach

The Colts have more AFC East titles than the Jets even though they haven't been in the division for 20 years now

it's fine we blew out peyton 41-3 in the wild card that one time

I was hoping that it would be the case that they had more in both Baltimore and Indianapolis, but unfortunately neither is the case (tied with Baltimore, +2 with Indianapolis).
