Why? They finally get to see a banner unveiled in person!

They were really good on offense and terrible on defense.

Just give us the late bye week

As if the NFL makes this the opener.

Yep. But the last few games everyone was buzzing about how fast their defense was improving. And that last game vs. GB they looked very physical and nasty. And they added some nice pieces to that defense, I think. Or rather, a lot of the analysts thought they added some good defensive players in the draft (possibly FA as well).

Just saying, we shouldn't expect it to be some kind of cakewalk if they play like they did in the last month or so of the 2022.

I thought when teams play in Germany, they get the bye the next week?

Don't you get your bye the week after an international game?

It'll be Buffalo, Minnesota, or Philly before freaking Detroit.

I believe Minnesota will be a road game next year, so it shouldn’t be them.

Holy shit OP, you think the nfl schedules the defending champs to play a meaningless matchup to start the year?

You’re better than this.

My guess is the Chargers for Week 1.

Buffalo makes sense, but they did the opener last year.

Philly won't happen because they don't want a SB rematch Week 1.

I know it's looked like it the last couple years but damn....our schedule is gonna be super tough this year.


We'll still probably go 14-3.

Hard to believe. The last few years they wanted top tier teams playing each other in the opener.

It does seem odd that we'd play DET in week 1.

the evidence says the source is accurate
