I just don't understand why releasing the schedule dates has become such a grandiose thing in the NFL. It wasn't that long ago when the schedule dates were released much earlier than this. Just announce the dates and get it over with. Not everything has to be an event. Expand I think that is the exact opposite of the NFL's motto. On 4/9/2019 at 4:36 PM, Logic said: I mean...

Expand Nah, present day caveman Jay_Fixit watches all of the games from his couch while he orders his woman to serve food and beverages, so he doesn't care when they are -- and he wants to make sure we all know about it!

TheFunPolice Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 4PM games are my favorite... Get work done all day then enjoy the game! 1 PM games take the whole day. By 415 it's getting dark 2

It really is an incredibly complicated process. Expand Yeah, not sure how the process goes but it wouldn’t surprise me if they literally start making up the schedule right after the prior season ends and it just takes this long to work everything out (stadium availability, no team has too long of a home/road stretch, etc.)

Witness Bills with 2 home games in the first 7 last year.

If true that takes out 5/16 possibilities (as I doubt the SNF opener is Pats/Bills). I'm wondering if the schedule will be released Wed this year instead of Thur as its the day before Good Friday. I know its not a national holiday in the US like it is Canada, but it is in 2 of the 3 big states (Texas & Florida).

That seems like gaurenteed leaks waiting to happen.
No_Matter_What Posted April 13, 2019 Posted April 13, 2019 There was some leak on Twitter with full Browns schedule. Nobody knows how legit it is but Bills play there week 12 regular Sunday game if true.

Nobody knows how legit it is but Bills play there week 12 regular Sunday game if true. Expand If that leak is correct (no reason to think it isn't) the Browns have FIVE primetime games this season including their first two. Two Monday nights, two Sunday nights, and a Thursday night. Bills @ Browns (not primetime) on 11/24.

The Bills Blog Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 With it being the 100th season, I wouldn't be surprised to see some primetime rematches of classic Super Bowls. Bills-Giants, perhaps? 1

Expand You can usually get them on the secondary market once the schedule is released and sellers know when the games are gonna be....you might pay a little more but at least you get a shot before the team officially sells individual tix.
