It will be leaked bit by bit as the day goes on. We'll know the whole schedule before 7.

When do tickets go on sale is the question.

Probably the 16th, if it follows same as last year. Even the secondary outlets were selling tickets once the official schedule was out.

What do we know so far?

1. Eagles in week 1, right?
2. Two divisional games in September, if it follows recent history.
3. When will we face the Niners? Christmas week?

Don't forget you have 1 of my tickets for 1 Green Package game.

NFL and Netflix are trying to work out a Christmas Day tv deal. Disgusting. Peacock, Netflix, what's next for these money grubbers? I miss Brent Musburger, Bruce Roberts and Phyllis George on CBS. And Dandy Don and Howard on MNF on ABC. And of course Madden everywhere.

Phyllis George was the first female NFL football reporter if I remember correctly. There were no Oliver's or Andrew's or Stark's to care about. Football was largely a cigar smoking beer and hard alcohol tailgating game. Woman worked (successfully) to understand the game. Dirt and Mud football before Astro and Tartan turf. No one drank lattes or smoothies.

Mopping for LA game to be in November or December.

Chiefs open with the Ravens the Thursday Night Football .

Cowboys will open at Cleveland in the late game. Brady will make his announcing debut. Who cares?

The latest leak suggests the Jets and 49ers will play in the MNF opener.

Yes, and week 2 the Chiefs play the Bengals. Burrow/Mahomes after Mahomes/Lamar. Football Gods are good to us.

Doesn't seem like we are ever on the bottom of this list.

I say it every year, but... Preseason SoS has no correlation to SoS after the season.

This doesn’t make sense to me. How would the Lions not be higher than the Packers. Lions play Bills, Cowboys, Buccaneers (all 1st place 2023 teams) vs Packers playing Dolphins, Eagles and Saints (all 2nd place 2023 teams)

We play the Lions twice. Lions play us twice.

As a frame of reference on Strength of Schedule:

The hardest sos is 9.3 wins
The easiest sos is 7.7 wins.

Total variance between hardest and easiest is 1.6 wins. Strength of Schedule is pretty meaningless

Almost statistically impossible for there to be no correlation.

Whether or not the correlation is significant is the real question.
