Week 7 (10/21): at Baltimore Ravens, 3:05 p.m.
Week 8 (10/28): at Minnesota Vikings (Sunday Night Football), 7:20 p.m.
(Again, we played there last season, they should be coming to the Dome. And who decided to place this on the second stop of a road trip? Smells like NY BS.
Week 9 (11/4): Los Angeles Rams, 3:25 p.m. (Finally, one game rotates, surprised we're not going there as a third leg road tour)
Week 10 (11/11): at Cincinnati Bengals, 12 p.m.
Week 11 (11/18): Philadelphia Eagles, 3:25 p.m.
Week 12 (11/22): Atlanta Falcons (Thanksgiving), 7:20 p.m.
Week 13 (11/29): at Dallas Cowboys (Thursday Night Football), 7:20 p.m.(Thursday games really need to be D/C'd)
Week 14 (12/9): Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 12:00 p.m.
Week 15 (12/17): at Carolina Panthers (Monday Night Football), 7:15 p.m.
Week 16 (12/23): Pittsburgh Steelers, 3:25 p.m.
Week 17 (12/30): Carolina Panthers, 3:25 p.m.(Why are the same divisional opponents facing off in two weeks? Why?

You're absolutely right. Oh, well, F*ck it! Bring it!

We hosted the lions three years ago, a NFC North team.

We have two scheduled game of the weeks in addition with two other possibilities.

Week 4, we go to the giants, but there is also SF at LAC, so there may be a wait-and-see approach on if the giants are good.

Week 11, you may notice that there is NO 4:25 game that week and CBS has 4:05 games. It's a Fox week. It is clear our game against the eagles is a wait-and-see approach, as Dallas at Atlanta is also scheduled for that week. If the cowboys are winning again with a record like 7-2, they will get flexed regardless of if we win enough games or not. However, we could get SNF if we are still winning and Jacksonville falls off.

We are scheduled to play the rams and steelers on game of the weeks.

It's also interesting all four of our games against the NFC East is either primetime or could be.
