HOME
Atlanta
Carolina
Houston
Indianapolis
Chicago
Detroit
Minnesota
NFC East

AWAY
New Orleans
Tampa Bay
Jacksonville
Tennessee
Detroit
Chicago
Minnesota
NFC West

We will play the first place NFL East and NFL West teams.

The NFC East team will be Dallas and the NFC West team will most be Seattle.

I hope the Indy game is in December.

That looks like a pretty easy schedule to me. Only 3 games really scare me. That would be Indy, Jacksonville, and Tennessee.

If the Indy game was in december that would be awesome. Would love to see Manning freeze his @$$ off.

Yep the first thing I thought of when I saw the schedule was I hope Indy comes in in December and now that I look Dallas too and Houston.

If we get Houston after the 4th game of the year Green will be out with an injury.

I put too much stock in the schedule before this season started.

But I'd be lying if I wasn't stoked to see us playing the NFC South next season. That division was terrible this season.

I am happy Dallas finally will play in Lambeau, hopefully they come in December but I read an article about how Jerry Jones writes the NFL requesting to only play in Lambeau early in the year.

Warm away schedule.

How does he justify this demand, do you remember? Seems like blatant chickening out.

I would agree... Although, Tenn could be a different team next season and jax is due for their down season next year... Indy should be intresting...

Actually every year warm weather and dome teams send letters to the commish (now this was back when Tags was the commish, so maybe it has changed) requesting to play any cold weather teams in the beginning of the year. Dennis Green and Jerry Jones were two of the bigger names who admitted it, and the NFL apparently granted their wishes whenever possible.

Personally I hope we face Indy and Dallas towards the end of the year when it's freezing, but I will settle for one.....hopefully Dallas being that one.

Gosh I would like to think the NFL would see the potential for Ice Bowl II:2k8 in December in Lambeau. It could easily wind up as THE game next season, a ratings juggernaut. The networks would fight over that like a can of Dinty Moore in the Vick kennels.

I never get overly worried that a schedule looks to tough or happy that it looks easy because the NFL is far to volatile.
