With the Schedule due out this week (May 11), I'm wondering what kind of predictions everyone has for what our schedule will look like?
Last year was pretty easy to guess that we'd open with Denver after that trade, but this year seems a bit more open.
I do know that the Mariners are away (9/10), home (9/17), away (9/24) & home (10/1), so barring prime time, we are likely looking at starting the season Home, Away, Home, Away.
If we can safely assume that we don't open against our division, and assume that we get a standard Sunday afternoon slot, I'm going to say we are going to be at home. Those assumptions leave us with the following possibilities: Eagles, Commanders, Browns, Steelers or Panthers. Out of those, I don't think we open up with the Eagles. I think they'd want the Eagles to get a national game right off the bat and although we may be excited for it, I don't see an Eagles/Seahawks matchup week 1 as nationally exciting. If all my assumptions are correct, that leaves me a 1 in 4 shot at getting it right, so for Opening day, I'm going to predict a Panthers @ Seahawks.
