Hopefully, AP constructs a team to handle that.

Not a bad schedule…rams Seattle and Houston, rather play here than on the road.

San Fran and Minny are tough away games

Not too shabby

Re: Commanders 2026 Opponents/Schedule
 

Will need to take care of business in the division, first and foremost. We swept the Giants, got swept by the Pukes, and split with the Eagles. Got to do better than 3-3 in the division. Impossible to know what these teams will look like next fall, but the Titans, Giants, and Cards look like they have a way to go.

Minus not traveling theres once again no benefit to playing at home.
Hope that changes but my hopes are less than 20% on the topic.
There was a similar post on reddit I responded to echoing a similar sentiment.

We'll see

Re: Commanders 2026 Opponents/Schedule
 

If I made the 26 schedule:


Week 1: @Titans
Week 2: Texans
Week 3: @Cards
Week 4: Cowboys on SNF
Week 5: Colts in London
Week 6: Bye
Week 7: Giants
Week 8: @ Eagles
Week 9: @Vikings
Week 10: Bengals on MNF
Week 11: @Jaguars
Week 12: Falcons
Week 13: Eagles
Week 14: Seahawks on TNF
Week 15: @49ers
Week 16: @Giants
Week 17: Rams
Week 18: @Cowboys

3 primetime games seems right. I also expect an international game again. I have some of our stronger matchups in the 2nd half; in case nfl wants to flex our games.

Re: Commanders 2026 Opponents/Schedule
 

Not an easy opponent list, but no team really has one anymore. I expect the Giants to be improved also. Harbaugh and a healthy Dart/Skattebo should have them better, and it honestly seems about time they've had a stroke of good luck. Huge year for Commanders and especially Quinn/JD5.

Re: Commanders 2026 Opponents/Schedule
 

The schedule will be released after the draft in early May.

I expect the East to be a dogfight between all 4 teams. Whichever East teams make the playoffs, will have earned it.

We should be improved and hopefully have JD5 for the entire season. Have to upgrade defense. Cowboys will still have a potent offense and Dak brings it during the regular season. Will be fun. Eager to get going on FA and draft.

Just had the news we are confirmed to play at Tottenham, London this year. I'm praying Terry and JD will be on the field this time and not like when I went to Madrid last year!

Need both to stay healthy this year desperately.

Re: Commanders 2026 Opponents/Schedule
 

Who do you think we will play? It will be from one of the 9 home games. I saw Colts.
On another board, there was discussion we could get a second London game but as the road team facing the Jaguars.

Back to back overseas games. Think they did that last year with one team.

It could be the Colts but I have a feeling it'll be Seahawks.

Don't think we'll get 2 games in London as Jax are already playing twice in London but wouldn't completely rule it out of course.
