RandyMarsh Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 We got to play at Lambeau early last year but it seems like that was the outlier, if feels like it's always at the end of the season and this coming year is no exception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That AFC rule no longer applies. A few years ago we were bears on CBS. There are a couple games that trade networks each year now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BTW the quote was traditionally and then he qualified it to say its not a guarantee) None of this is to say it couldn't be Buffalo or Miami but the thinking it has to be one or two teams is wrong.

buddha Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 so with the releases so far we assume: open with philly at home. on the road against the pats in week 5. bears on the road in week 10, giants on the road week 11. bills on turkey day. finish at home against the bears and then at the packers.

They’re not perfect (obviously lol) but they were pretty good last year. They’re the ones who publish the spreadsheet of leaks. The first site I linked I probably shouldn’t have, it’s why I put the caveat about being unconfirmed. I was just excited to see a leak.

RandyMarsh Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) Nice to start at home for the first 2 and 3 of first 4. With the exception of Thanksgiving which starts at 12:30 all the games are at 1. I kinda figured no prime time games but surprised there isn't any 4pm games either, I suppose it's cause we don't play any road games in the west.

It's possible, I think they'll have to go atleast 3-2 before the bye. I feel all those games are winnable, yeah Philly smoked them last year and is much improved but the first week is always a crazy so they could steal that one. Washington and Seattle at home you should win but if you do split there I think they can win at Minnesota and NE. Despite my love for Mac Jones I don't think NE is all that good.

RandyMarsh Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) Looking more in depth at the schedule and yeah I agree that its easy to find 7 or 8 wins there. As of now I see 5 home games that they may actually be favored in if the line was put out today and that's Washington, Seattle, Minny, Chicago and Jacksonville. You can't expect them to win all 5 but if they win 3 or 4 of those then steal another 1 at home from Philly, Miami, Buffalo on Tday or GB then you're looking at a 4-5 or 5-4 home record. Outside of Dallas and GB if they have something to play for none of the road games scare me that much, it's not hard to envision them winning a couple of those so yeah now that I think about it I think 7 should be the minimum target if they stay healthy. With some luck and/or Goff great play I don't think 9 or even 10 wins is out of the question if absolutely everything goes perfectly. Not that I think they are a true 10 win team, just that they play a lot of beatable teams and if everything goes right I think they could do it..
