corta765 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) Corta the schedule guy here and it's been officially confirmed Bears Packers are the opener Thursday night. Patriots will host SNF week 1 my guess is Cleveland but also Pittsburgh possible. NE media not happy but 100th season for Bears and 101st for Pack were important factors.

Andrew Son Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Nice. At least the first real game won't include the Pats*. 1
aceman_16 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Who care about NE media? Screw 'em! Let them frenzy over Bratty's ACL tear on opening weekend! 1

I understand being upset a little. Typically opening game is for previous SB champ which for 99% of everyone means its close to a once in a generation thing your team opens the season.
Forward Progress Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 I think New England will host KC on Sunday night. That looks like the best week 1 matchup to me.
Virgil Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Bear-Packers is exactly who I’d think of for a 100 year game. Good choice and should be a good game 1
Bubba Gump Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 ***** the Pats and their spoiled ass media and fanbase. Can't wait til they are a non-factor in the NFL again. 3
1ManRaid Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 I hope the poor ratings of another rigged NE Super Bowl run played into the scheduling decision. 2

Doubtful more 100th anniversary. That said I think the NFL should consider changing the schedule where week 1 the years prior SB winner get a night game but not always opening night. Truthfully some years the SNF or MNF game has better matchups.

Even history and tradition are sick of these patsies! 2

Week 1 draws great ratings no matter what, and i thnk they will save that game for a huge ratings pull iin the solo afternoon slot.

416BillsFan Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 So I guess Giants/Cowboys on SNF will have to wait until week 2. 1
Albany,n.y. Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Meanwhile the Buffalo media has remained silent, knowing the Bills will be on SNF in November and December. 2

Just basing things on the ratings for last couple of Super Bowls nationally people don't want to tune in to see the Patriots like they used to. I'm much more inclined to watch Bears/Packers than the Pats. 3
