Anything you want to see happen, besides starting on time.

The Bears 8 times?
And the vikings four times and the Lions four times?
40Whiners at Lambeau to close the season.
I'd just like to see the games actually happen.
Ditto.... we’ll see if the season even happens.
IMHO we will have a season of some sort but we will see what it looks like.
As for the schedule itself I would like less prime time games (If I had my way all Packers game would start at 4 EST) and more home games towards the back end of the schedule.
The season may never happen if people keep gathering in groups, allowing this virus to propagate. Stay home now, so we might get to have some sort of football in the Fall.
vikings at Lambeau in December for a change.
Probably some sort of season, but my guess would be no playing in front of crowds until there's a vaccine.
If it's not safe for fans it's not safe for teams. Teams include maintainence folks, trainers, publicity depts, film depts, transportation folks, coaches and players. Lots more involved than the 22 on the field. Oh, the refs too.
Multiply the above by 16 games and 16 teams moving about the country (world?) each week and one can see many pitfalls. Would Seattle folks be comfortable having the Jets or Giants bringing in perhaps a hundred folks into their supposedly covid clean environment? And then those Seahawks going to Green Bay the next week. Newsom out in Cali does not seem receptive to having games as of now.
Put me in the Negative Nancy column if you wish but there is a lot to be aware of.
I hope there will be a season.

The NFL is apparently averse to games with weather. Some of the best games in NFL history with rain, snow and mud but another bygone era apparently.
The NFL Krafts the schedule carefully.
NE Pats had final 2 at home in '17 & '18. Had 3 of last 4 at home in '19.
NFL in a memo to clubs today says until all 32 training sites can open, none can open.

It's funny that MLB doesn't seem averse to weather affecting games, but the NFL does. Same guys running MLB must have had a hand in designing Target Field, in Minneapolis.
