The schedule gets released in about 5 weeks (mid-May) if I am not mistaken. The draft is two weeks from tomorrow.

I hate that it takes that long.

 

Wish it was announced one week after the draft.

That monday night game was something 

I have no recollection whatsoever of that game.  I do remember the excitement that we got a home MNF game in like 10 years or something like that.

Derek Anderson (in what would be his last NFL game) started the game. Peterman finished it

 

I'll let you guess what happened

Anderson threw seven TD's and Peterman took over in the 4th once the game was out of reach.

Didn't it used to be, back in the day?  In fact I seem to remember it coming out in April before the draft.  But those are the days where international, Christmas Day games and satreaming services had yet to come into play

Back in the day...the schedule would be announced in March or late February, and it was in the newspapers!

It use to be like March, then moved to early April, then late April, now it seems they have found their sweet spot in mid May. The attention given to all of the network partners and marquee games has made it a very complex rubix cube. It use to be 34 SNF/MNF games to figure out and the rest was either 1 pm or 4pm. If you are not in even 1 primetime game these days your team reallly is awful.
