Locked On NFL – Daily Podcast On The National Football League

The NFL Schedule dropped on Thursday and the biggest thing that stood out was the TREMENDOUS Thanksgiving slate that includes five great games. The Los Angeles Rams against the Green Bay Packers to get us started and then the Buffalo Bills taking on the Kansas City Chiefs 24 hours later is a delight. We also get some fantastic matchups in Week 1 as the New England Patriots get a super Bowl rematch against the Seattle Seahawks and the Washington Commanders at the Philadelphia Eagles. Finally, there are some gems later in the year during the holiday season like the Cincinnati Bengals against the Baltimore Ravens on New Year's Eve and the Packers against the Chicago Bears on Christmas night.

The NFL's schedule is being announced by the day and now we have the entire international slate. Tyler and Michelle rank the nine games that include two divisional showdowns. The Jacksonville Jaguars take on the Houston Texans as the final leg of Duval's double dip in London. A matchup that could have a major impact on the AFC South race. Paris, France gets an underrated matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New Orleans Saints. Two teams with interesting seasons ahead. Finally, the Cincinnati Bengals are hoping to kickstart a Spanish revolution as they head to Madrid and look to go on an interest-sparking run like we haven't seen since the 1990s Chicago Bulls, or so that say, when they take on the Atlanta Falcons.

Can the Los Angeles Rams silence doubters after selecting a quarterback at No. 13, even as stars like Trent McDuffie strengthen their defense?

Unexpected teams like the Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints, and Arizona Cardinals are primed to upset the NFC pecking order. Is running back Jeremiah Love the spark Arizona needs, or will Michael Bidwill’s front office moves backfire once again? Denver Broncos’ stability under Sean Payton and George Paton comes under the spotlight, while the NFC South’s strength—or lack thereof—could offer any team with a strong ground game and bold coaching a path to the postseason.

Seattle had to deal with more change and in turn, may be less focused, motivated and equipped to win this one out of the gate. However, Seattle needs to be ready because the NFC West is no cakewalk. Even with the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams beating each other up. Those two teams get an excellent international game to follow up the Super Bowl rematch. The Detroit Lions and Buffalo Bills will go head to head to kick off Week 2. The Lions and Bills both have a lot to prove in this high-profile matchup. Finally, the NFL is trying to takeover Saturdays late in the season it seems with the announcement the NFL will have a Saturday game the last five weeks of the regular season.

The Dallas Cowboys will be taking on the New York Giants in the first Sunday Night Football matchup of the season and both teams bring intrigue to the table. Dak Prescott and the high-flying offense is always a must watch, but Jaxson Dart and John Harbaugh are a dynamic combo that make the Giants a potential contender. This may be two blue blood franchises, but it is still a fun matchup. Watching the AFC North teams battle it out is always a treat, but with Aaron Rodgers still not committed to the Pittsburgh Steelers, it is hard to know if they can compete with the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals. Getting a healthy rematch of last year's AFC championship game would be nice as well between the Denver Broncos and New England Patriots. In the NFC, both the Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers are trying to stay at the top as their rosters start to change, which means desperation will be a theme in their matchup. Similarly, the pressure is high for both the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers in the NFC North.
