NFC North is stacked top to bottom. Even Bears will be tough.
AFC East is no cake walk. After losing to Patriots last year...
Just thinking ahead of what our final record may look like.
Vikings had a rough off season, on paper they are not as good as they were before, Bears still continue to be mediocre, most dont see them with a winning record.. Detroit and Packers will be solid. AFC east is not very good either outside of Bills.

I agree with Vikings. I do think Bears will be better in 2025, I can see them having a floor of 7 wins and a ceiling of 9 wins.
I think Cardinals will be better in 2025 also.
To me, the Bengals need to go 4-2 minimum in our division. They need to overtake Ravens as the beast in the North.
Please use 2025 free agency to fix the trenches, not the draft!!!!!!!!

The Patriots game last year has left me skeptical.

That is the most direct way to a winning season. Went 4-2 in 2021 and SB.
Ultimately; with the Browns and Steelers QB situation, a 4-2 AFCN record is not unrealistic. If we then come out of AFC East with a 3-1 record, even a 2-2 record with NFCN can leave us in a favorable situation to a playoff path.

problem is steelers have struggled last 2 years with QBs and we are still only 1-3 those last two years.

Always near impossible to predict what games they will win or lose.
During their Super Bowl season they lost to the 6 win Bears and the 4 win Jets.

I read one announcement was made on the today show:
"Tirico revealed that the NFL Kickoff Game on Thursday, September 4 will feature the Super Bowl LIX champion Philadelphia Eagles hosting the division rival Dallas Cowboys."

Anything yet from Fox or Prime Video?

Normally, they don't leak the entire schedule, but you can usually find some of the games.
I usually look but I saw a link on Facebook for the schedule release leaks and I'm trying to hold off because I want to be surprised.
Has anyone looked at any leaks?
Don't spoil it if you have, but any cool times or games that seem interesting?

Luckily, it's raining here, so I can't go to the gym for a few hours, then I'm presenting my story at a school tomorrow at noon and going out to eat after with the friend that's driving me, and then I can workout Wednesday morning, blow kisses to the cars and buses, and then be ready for the schedule release, so hopefully I won't look at any schedule leaks.

We already know the opponents for both home and away.
So the only unknown is dates and times. That said I think the games against the NFC North, Bears and Lions at home and Packers and Vikings away will be interesting.

Those are always fun games between the Bengals and the Bills. I like it. Sucks for the people in the eastern time zone though.

I know all that but primetime games and the order and dates make a big difference in how the season plays out.

Fox just announced it would broadcast a doubleheader on December 20 (a Saturday), with the Eagles at the Commanders and the Packers at the Bears.
I think the next official schedule leak will be with ESPN tomorrow morning.

If you don’t want to be spoiled avoid this thread because the schedule will be posted as we hear about it throughout the next 2 days
All hopes turn to next year

gamepass if it is a 1pm game. But as long as we win I don't give a damn.
