NFL schedule release tomorrow

[RunKC]

Ian Rapaport@RapSheet-The @NFL schedule will be announced tomorrow, per an announcement to add to the earlier announcement about a forthcoming announcement.

Any ideas of who we'll open against? Primetime games?

[eDave]

Buffalo

[cosmo20002]

I'm expecting a shitload of trap games.

[007]

on the road in Denver week one Thursday night.

[CapsLockKey]

Hopefully the home games aren't stacked in November and later like last year. It felt like we only had two home games before the weather got shitty.

JimJones can handle those for you

Buffalo?

No way... they're not opening the season with that game.

[notorious]

Let me guess that they are going to give the Chiefs 3 home games the first 11 weeks again.

Who knows, Denver had 4 home games in the first 11 weeks of 2015.

Last year, KC had 4 home games in the first 8 weeks... just so happens one was given up for London. KC did have 4 home games in the final 6 last season.

[TLO]

Rumors are that the Chiefs will be giving up 4 home games to play in Bangladesh as part of the NFL's new outreach program.

[WhawhaWhat]

7-9

[Bwana]

Only in the NFL is an announcement about the announcement of the regular-season schedule an event. But the league revealed Wednesday night that it will release the 2016-17 schedule at 8 p.m. ET Thursday.

Watching the Royals game instead.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

My best stab at it based on previous few years:

Week 1 vs. NYJ, Noon
Week 2 @ Atlanta, Noon
Week 3 @ Pittsburgh, SNF
Week 4 vs. SD, Noon
Week 5 vs. NO, Noon
Week 6 @ Carolina, MNF
Week 7 vs. Jacksonville, Noon
Week 8 @ Oakland, 3:25
Week 9 vs. Tampa Bay, Noon
Week 10 Bye
Week 11 vs. Oakland, TNF
Week 12 @ Houston, Noon
Week 13 @ Indianapolis, Noon
Week 14 vs. Denver, SNF
Week 15 @ SD, 3:25
Week 16 vs. Tennessee, Noon
Week 17 @ Denver, 3:25

[Red Dawg]

How bad will we get fucked and how easy will they make it for the Pats and Denver is the question.

[Garcia Bronco]

How bad will we get ****ed and how easy will they make it for the Pats and Denver is the question.

lol

[BleedingRed]

My best stab at it based on previous few years:

Week 1 vs. NYJ, Noon WIN
Week 2 @ Atlanta, Noon WIN
Week 3 @ Pittsburgh, SNF Loss
Week 4 vs. SD, Noon WIN
Week 5 vs. NO, Noon WIN
Week 6 @ Carolina, MNF Loss
Week 7 vs. Jacksonville, Noon WIN
Week 8 @ Oakland, 3:25 WIN
Week 9 vs. Tampa Bay, Noon WIN
Week 10 Bye
Week 11 vs. Oakland, TNF Loss
Week 12 @ Houston, Noon WIN
Week 13 @ Indianapolis, Noon Loss
Week 14 vs. Denver, SNF WIN
Week 15 @ SD, 3:25 WIN
Week 16 vs. Tennessee, Noon WIN
Week 17 @ Denver, 3:25 WIN

13-3 is my prediction

[pugsnotdrugs19]

13-3 is my prediction

Could see that, I have em' at 12-4, but we'll see what the real schedule looks like

[Discuss Thrower]

Since Baltimore lost their home opener to Denver after their SB win, it's only fitting the Broncs open up on the road at New England on Thursday night, right?

[Garcia Bronco]

That was because they had a scheduling conflict for the Stadium...not our fault.

If the Broncos do get the opener the rumor is Houston vs Denver.

Denver for sure gets the opener as the defending champions.

All for that Osweiler storyline. I could see it.

[Bewbies]

I'd tune in to see Osweiler BF the Broncos and ruin their celebration. LMAO

[thabear04]

Buffalo

I'm surprised we don't play them this coming season.

[Mile High Mania]

Dude, it's gonna be CAR @ DEN.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Dude, it's gonna be CAR @ DEN.

No, it's not. That would be stupid of the NFL.

That game doesn't need to be the season opener to draw huge viewership. They won't waste it on the week 1 slate.

[BleedingRed]

Dude, it's gonna be CAR @ DEN.

Nah, that would be murdering Bronco's hope of a winning season on opening day. Texans Vs. Broncos to many juicy story lines.

Elway VS Brock ( Did Elway make right decision)
Gary VS Bill (replaced coach meets replacey)
Wade Phillips VS Romeo (aka JJ watt and the rest)

Launching point for Brock & Texans if they win, thus starting their "story"

Possible (BUWAHHAHAHA) redemption story for Mar... Im sorry lol

Enh, I get that part of it... but how much of a draw is HOU really nationally for the first game of the year? That has the danger of being a freaking defensive snoozer of epic proportions.

[Garcia Bronco]

Denver for sure gets the opener as the defending champions.

You're probably right, but I don't think that's written in stone.

Elway vs Rick Smith. Rick Smith got his front office gig in Houston from here.

Wait where is our annual Buffalo game?

[Discuss Thrower]

:facepalm:

[Mile High Mania]

I still think with Denver ... the home/season opener will either feature Brady or Cam.

[Mile High Mania]

http://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article71887387.html

According to multiple sources... it's a SB rematch, and honestly - why wouldn't they go this route? They love to go big in Game 1 and as I said, with the disarray at QB, the way Denver won... it will be a solid opportunity for the Panthers to kick things into gear and start fresh. They should be loving this quite honestly.

[Rain Man]

A Denver-Carolina game would be interesting because NFL fans might want to know which team would win in a non-rigged game.

:clap:

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Well, it's official. Carolina-Denver rematch for the opener week 1.

Didn't see it coming personally. Big change of past patterns.

[DaneMcCloud]

You're one of the fucking dumbest n00bs I've seen in years.

And it's RAMS, dipshit, not "Ram's".

[Dayze]

only reason I MIGHT watch the season opener is to see the Broncos hopefully lose.
otherwise. (assuming it's Carolina vs Broncos)

otherwise, meh.
of course, I really think I might actually watch some NFL football this year now that Manning is finally fucking done. He's a huge reason, along with the sorry ass coverage of the NFL by everyone, why I pretty much just watch the Chiefs on game day and go about my day afterwards.

[Chiefshrink]

I see 11 wins and potentially 13 IF we stay healthy.

[Rasputin]

Who knows, Denver had 4 home games in the first 11 weeks of 2015.

Last year, KC had 4 home games in the first 8 weeks... just so happens one was given up for London. KC did have 4 home games in the final 6 last season.


Martha Fuck London games fucking bullshit. I'm going write a long worded nasty letter to Clark Hunt and Roger Goodell if it happens again.

[ChiefsCountry]

Christmas night at Arrowhead with the Donks is a possibility.

[frozenchief]

Thursday, December 8, Raiders at KC. That looks like it could be a really good game. I might have to come down to KC to see it.

[Mile High Mania]

Denver and KC don't play until after week 11. Weird, but we know what's on tv Christmas Day.

[notorious]

I see that they gave the horrifically shitty Cowboys 5 Primetime Games.......

[Mile High Mania]

And, here's what it looks like for Denver... you know you care. I broke it out in groups of 4 games. No prognostications on W/L at this point, but I'll say it's a tough schedule esp with the QBs they face in the first 6 weeks... thankfully, the defense is pretty much still in tact. They lost a few critical guys, but they have depth and there are still moves to be made and the draft. A week 11 bye... that's late, but it is what it is. Looks like 5 primetime games.

Interesting oddity... the 3 divisional road games, all prime-time. Honestly... the worst QBs they face, maybe Brock - Bortles and Winston? Least proven anyway, but big upside.

Sept. 8 vs. Carolina (TNF)
Sept. 18 vs. Indianapolis
Sept. 25 at Cincinnati
Oct. 2 at Tampa Bay

After the first 4 games: 2 home, 2 road - all tough

Oct. 9 vs. Atlanta
Oct. 13 at San Diego (TNF)
Oct. 24 vs. Houston (MNF)
Oct. 30 vs. San Diego

After the next 4 games: 3 home, 1 road - twice vs SD, should be another tough stretch. After 8 games, 5 home and 3 road.

Nov. 6 at Oakland (SNF)
Nov. 13 at New Orleans

Nov. 20 Bye Week

Nov. 27 vs. Kansas City
Dec. 4 at Jacksonville

The next 4 feature the bye week - 1 home, 3 road. And, again I'll say it's a tough stretch.

Dec. 11 at Tennessee
Dec. 18 vs. New England
Dec. 25 at Kansas City (SNF)
Jan. 1 vs. Oakland

And, the final 4 games - 2 home, 2 road. NE at home, nice and @ KC on Christmas - could be brutal, while closing at home vs OAK and likely a huge game with playoff implications.

[tk13]

They stuck it to the Colts. They play in London week 4, and then don't get a bye the next week. I'm not sure I've ever seen that before.

And it's not just one game, they have to come back and play five straight until a bye, and 3 of the last 4 of those are also on the road, with the Chiefs in between.

[Chiefshrink]

I see that they gave the horrifically shitty Cowboys 5 Primetime Games.......

Of course. They are a much bigger market and they ARE America's team remember:rolleyes:
