I think the thing that stands out the most is we have 10 days in between the Vikings and Rams game, because of our Bye week, then 11 more days until we play the Saints.... that' like having 2 Bye weeks.

Another oddity is we don't play any Back to Back games against our North Division foes.

I like that our first 4 games are very winnable, and Parsons is estimated to be back by week 5 against the Bears.... the schedule makers were kind in that aspect.

4th fewest travel miles of any team, although da 'Bears have even less. The '9'ers have almost triple the flight miles as GB.
That is the one I like. Not leaving the country. But playing all those home games in Dec.- Jan. is not good. Already banged up by that point and the sub freezing and possibly sub zero weather will get more injuries. I will pray for Global Warming to kick in.

Remove the division games and at most one game a year until 2024 and many times none. That's rarely in my book. True there are not many opportunities, especially with so many dome teams now.
But post Thanksgiving there is only like four or five games so

I think you gave all the reasons. M-W-F, 2-Th, 2 SNF. Thanksgiving Eve and Xmas Day.
Sorry you don't like primetime games. We are too good of a team and a major draw to ratings, to have us play only on Sunday at noon or 425pm.

I'm definitely glad we don't have any International games this year. The Jaguars and 49ers both have 2.

Maybe primetime a couple a year.

It would be nice, but in today's football landscape, only having a couple, with the ratings we bring, would mean we were not a good football team... My biggest gripe about prime time games, is they are moving them to streaming services. We have 2 games on Amazon Prime, and 2 on Netflix.

If I was still a season ticket holder, I wouldn't be fond of the idea of the league being able to flex home games at Lambeau Field. For those who drive fairly substantial distances to see the games, or those who have strictly set schedules, this is a deal breaker. Paying for tickets and being told if you sell them, they're watching you, then being told the games you plan on seeing may be "flexed" to a different day? Seriously?

It's too bad this happens but reality is, it's all about the money. The days where paying fans were important seems to be almost secondary now.

Another issue with some of these non Sunday games is television coverage availability.

Discourages going to a late season game.
