No it wouldn’t 😒
Yeah Eff Thanksgiving games.
Opener is vs NFC North team.
Just my guess
Looking forward to more Sunday games with a noon kickoff.
I actually wouldn't be the least bit surprised if we go to Detroit on Thanksgiving.
I also expect very few prime time games this year with the majority of the games being at 100 EST kickoff.
It’s likely to be a shitty season for those of us not in the Wisconsin TV zones.

In the past, it's been shitty for those of us, in Wisconsin, who cannot get the Packers games because they were scheduled to be played at the same time the vikings games were. Here's hoping that this season, the NFL Schedulers fix that problem.
YTTV has Sunday Ticket now. It should be better - I think
Thanks for the reminder. The YTtv $100 off deal ends 6/6.
2023 opponents:
(9 away games this year) :
Home: Bears, Lions, Vikings, Chiefs, Chargers, Rams, Saints, Buccaneers
Away: Bears, Lions, Vikings, Falcons, Panthers, Broncos, Raiders, Giants, Steelers
Ahead of the release of the full 2023 NFL regular season schedule on May 11, the following games will be announced:
International Games – May 10 on NFL Network and ESPN
Black Friday Game – May 10 via Amazon
Select individual games – May 10 on Fox & Friends and CBS Mornings
Select individual games – May 11 on Today Show and Good Morning America
Probably the Bears. Yawn. Cliché.
Really? The NFL drip-feeds the schedule on multiple channels over the course of two days?

Looks like the non-division away games are easier than the home games. That could play a big part in the final record and if the Pack makes the playoffs.
This years GB/CHI game will have extra juice for the first time in a while.
Found on the Internet:
One fun fact: The Packers have the 9th weakest "strength of schedule" based on 2022 W/L. Also the weakest in the North. Ironically the Bares have the toughest SoS in the North.
Also, if you can believe this...Bleacher Report ranked the Packers D 18th in the NFL going into 2023 with the lions 24, the Bares 29 and Minnie 30.
The 18th ranking in spite of this 2022 performance:
17th in points allowed
17th in total yards allowed
28th in yards allowed per play
21st in turnover created
6th in passing yards allowed
12th in passing touchdowns allowed
24th in passing yards allowed per attempt
26th in rushing yards allowed
23rd in rushing touchdowns allowed
28th in rushing yards allowed per attempt
24th in penalties committed
25th in turnover percentage
Hope the Defense gets "Rich" this season.
No leaks yet but I've got Packers @10-7 and Jets @ 9-8.
The juice is for the drinks both fan bases will be mixing.
I like the fact that there are only 2 away games in what can be a warm environment. Depending on when they are scheduled, of course.
Las Vegas is always hot, Charlotte can be until early fall.
Does anyone know when Mel Kiper's first mock schedule comes out?

Vegas is a dome so…and I’m near Charlotte…no comparison between September here and September in Florida.
I'll be damned; I thought LV was an outdoor stadium.
Thanks for the info!
Even better, in that case.
Been eyeing the Vegas and Charlotte games and going there.
From what I've heard, both tickets and hotel rooms for Raider games are crazy expensive.
I’m thinking that there will be plenty of early Sunday local market only games so those of us not in the local viewing area need to get YouTube, figure out the streaming deal or find a local establishment with the package. I guess listening to Jim and Max could suffice for some.

Charlotte X4 party?
Hope it's a day game.
I can still feel the cold rain pelting me as Brad Hoover turned in to Walter Payton on steroids on a miserable MNF

I would be in for that if everything lines up. An easy one hour flight and always up for a Packer party weekend.
It has been over 20 years since the Packers got Hoovered and I still haven't gotten out it.

That game is going to be one hot ticket. Good luck getting in that stadium for under $300 a seat. Enjoy those $16 beers too
The hype train has started
The New York Jets and Miami Dolphins will play in the NFL's first-ever Black Friday game.
The historic game, announced Wednesday, will be played at MetLife Stadium on Nov. 24, with kickoff slated for 3 p.m. ET.
Are only blacks allowed to play?
Where is BK to say "Reported"?

That doesn't surprise me one bit and may have to rethink Vegas. I got back from Vegas not that long ago and I was blown away how freaking expensive it is. Way different than 30 years ago when I went there last.
We toured the stadium in February and it's impressive BUT our cab driver told us that tickets and hotel rooms are VERY expensive, that the seats were sold out via PSLs and many are making bank reselling them to out of town fans.
Prices for just about every single NFL franchise are sky high. It's pretty much the hottest ticket in sports, there's only a 17 game season, and teams can only capitalize on 8-9 home games.

Las Vegas used to be so cool and inexpensive before Howard Hughes f'd it up.
The mob knew how to steer the money in to gambling which they could skim, instead of room, food and entertainment costs.
Was just in Vegas a few weeks ago. Unbelievably expensive these days. Lots of bums, scam artists and dipshits…. And that was just the people I traveled with.
