Admin: I'm going to "Hijack" the thread and expand it to the Schedule release, today at 8pm Eastern, so we don't have to start a new thread. Poll will still be valid, though

I'd want the Seahawks first... least impactful to the playoffs, and they don't have to show it all in the first game to the rest of the division. In all, what matters to me is that the schedule is balanced, not with huge runs away or home, and cold weather cities scheduled as early as possible, and a decent Bye date, about 8 games in.

Saw a FB rumor that we are hosting the Dolphins on SNF in week 6. Tua vs. Herbert. Saw it on FB so take it with a grain of salt.

I’ve seen in a few places on Twitter that we’ll be @Cleveland in Week 5. Could be big since Watson’s most likely suspension seems to be 6 games.

On Sirius radio they said the Browns, Dolphins and Saints schedules were leaked supposedly but had no confirmation.

I hope one or both of the Denver road game and Cleveland is no later than October. The last time the team played in Cleveland the weather was good. Denver can be good for the first 6-7 weeks.

It won't be Denver or Seattle... scheduled to be the MNF on week 1.

Just realized schedule.comes out today so that's always fun.
we're going on a warpath

Seahawks week 7 and 49ers week 10 on Nov. 13th a SNF game

Now leaning Jags (my next favorite pick) or Titans (NFL wants another barnburner on week 1). Miami also makes sense to visit the Chargers if the NFL doesn't want to bake a team visiting there on Week 1 (or reduce hurricane risk). Raiders is too obvious.

I get why they want Russell Wilson back in Seattle but Raiders and Chargers is a better game

Raiders will be at the Chargers Sunday afternoon

Maybe they didn't want the Chargers to play Sunday Night and Thursday night
or maybe they want to wax Russells's cajones as he goes back to seattle to play a lousy team

And Benajamin Allbright was right - he had this a few days ago that Broncos and Seattle would open the SNF schedule
(what an absolute lousy game)
