NFL Schedule Announced

Ah yes that time of the year has come around. Five months away from the return of Football season. The National Football League has announced their schedule for the league for the 2017 season. Whether it be for planning trips to see some games, organizing your schedule for prime-time games, seeing when your favorite team has a bye week or waiting for that game toward the end of the season that could make or break a certain team's season, this is the kind of fun and drama we want as fans of the sport. Wee will break down the local schedules, no doubt. First things first. Here's just some other games that are on the schedule that are going to be fun to watch.

Week Two:
Green Bay Packers @ Atlanta Falcons
Its a rematch of last years NFC title game, except this time the field has changed. Its not in Atlanta, the scene shifts to Green Bay. Neither team has changed a lot since last year, so it is almost like an exact rematch between the two clubs. And if the meeting in the playoffs was any indication, this one could be yet another high scoring affair.

Week Six:
Cleveland Browns @ Houston Texans
Weird to see the Browns on a game to watch list right? Don't worry, there is a reason this game is on this list. Both teams are going to suck but look at the QB matchup. Brock Osweiler versus Tom Savage doesn't get anyone excited on the surface of it, but when you consider the fact that the Texans gave up a second-round draft pick just to get Osweiler out of the building, this game will be incredible should he find his way into the starting role. This QB matchup really needs to happen, even though the Browns are really going to suck this year.

Week Seven:
Atlanta Falcons @ New England Patriots
This one, you would figure would be pretty obvious to put on the list. Its a Super Bowl rematch. This isn't a neutral site game, its in Foxborough. Atlanta hasn't changed much this offseason, hell neither really have the Patriots. Should be another fun game to watch.

Week Fourteen:
Philadelphia Eagles @ Los Angeles Rams
We get the matchup that has been about a year or so in the making. Carson Wentz vs Jared Goff, the battle of the top two picks from last years draft are finally going to face off against each other. So far, it looks like Wentz was the better selection after a pretty terrible rookie campaign from Goff, but perception can definitely change from now until then. Once both guys get a little more comfortable, they may have a more favorable head to head comparison.

Those are just some of the highlights of this years schedule.

For the Giants, the division games are going to be fun, they always are. Now you throw in them playing the West in both conferences. Plus throw in playing teams like Detroit and Tampa as well are going to make this an interesting year for Big Blue. Some of these games are going to good. Kind of a cool twist that they start and end the season against the Division, going to Dallas to star the year and then end it at home against Washington. Nice balance between division games before and after the bye week.

Same as with the Giants, Gang Green starts and ends the year off against the Division. Both are on the road, starting in Buffalo and ending in New England. The fact that the Jets play the NFC South and AFC West, will make for some fun games this year. Heading out on the road to play Oakland, Denver and New Orleans/ This year is going to be entertaining at least.
