Schedule to be Unveiled Wednesday
 

I imagine we'll have a lot to discuss on this thread once the schedule is officially released

I wish we could find out the training camp schedule already so I can make some vacation plans!

Want to make a poll to try to guess how many primetime games the skins will get?

God I've been waiting for this thing to come out now for like 6 weeks.

Yea me to. I dont know what city im going to end up getting a job in. Im hoping to get this position in DC so I can go to all the homegames, but if not I want to see what away games I could get to. Im thinking about going to the Dallas game in Dallas this year, ive always wanted to. Im so tired of FED EX field having so much blue and silver in it. I hope its not as bad this year and ill bring so Skins colors to Dallas.

That's sweet that we'll be able to watch the show live on NFL.com! It really sucks that my cable provider doesn't carry NFL Network, but hopefully, NFL.com will start carrying some of the shows like this live over the internet. Come 5pm tomorrow, I'll be glued to my... computer monitor.

what teams would we rather not play late in the schedule (crappy weather), but instead play earlier in the year? And how tough is our schedule ranked? we always seem to have one of the tougher schedules in the league even when we finish a year as bad as we did last season. If I remember correctly a couple of years ago we had to play all four of the teams who'd been in the conference finals the year before.

Aren't schedules made 4 or so years in advance? But our schedule this year is moderatly hard, no doubt about it!

I think for the most part yes the teams are chosen but the specifics of the schedule aren't

Thank God, I've been waiting for ever. I go to Dallas every year. I need tickets and hotel. I've been just waiting on the date to pull the trigger.

Hey skinsandcanes, Dallas is a fun city, but Texas Stadium is a world class dump.

Jerry Jones wants a new stadium though doesnt he. I remember a year or so ago there were talks of him wanting one.

Isnt the schedule done as follows, the four year schedule is made up so that we play every division. So we play two full division every year, our division and two wildcard games. It used to be the worst teams in a division the year before play the worst teams in teh other division, but with four team division that changed.

That's right. In fact, I've heard that he wants a 100,000 seat stadium -- which would be the biggest in the NFL by far. And he'll probably get it.

FED EX field will have over 100k within three years, i bet. Assuming we keep to our 5k a year rate, mabye in less than two

I'd guess two on MNF two Sunday/Thursday nite, NFC divisional playoffs, NFC championship game and the superbowl -- Looks like 7 to me...

Way to keep us out of the wildcard game.

I'm hoping for at least one Monday nighter, I made up my fall school schedule and kept monday nights clear with the Skins in mind, LOL.

In part yes and in part no.

6 games - Home and home with division opps.

4 games - All teams of the NFC East play the four teams in the AFC North (we have a home game against Baltimore, I better not see ANY purple in the stadium that week!)

4 games - All teams of hte NFC East play the four teams of the NFC North

2 games - Each team plays the same placed teams (for us, third place) from last year in the NFC South and West.

Each year, the divisions rotate. A division plays one other full NFC division and one other full AFC division. With the remaining two games being against NFC teams who placed the same as us.

The rotation of divisions is the same (i.e. North, then West, etc) so we play every AFC team every four years and every NFC team every three years. However, I don't know the rotation.

I didtn know how the last two games worked, thanks.

Not bad. And we got Dallas on Monday night. Yay!!!

That is a awsome schedule. That monday nighter at Dallas is gonna be awsome. The only thing about the overall schedule I didnt like, were the Thanksgiving games. I mean wtf is with Chicago @ Dallas?? That'll be a napper. Our Schedule is awsome though, Opening at Home with TB, I cant wait.

Monday Night against Dallas is going to be HUGE!

I wonder how many of us can get to the Dallas game, since its the day after xmas.

Skins - Dallas Monday Night!
 

Sweet.... Just got a line on tickets for me and my bro'!

:dallas:

I think we have a very feasible schedule this year. Im looking forward to this year very much.

heh, I just made this posts on the other thread but I guess its all going down here. I wonder how many people will make the Dallas away game since its the day after xmas. I cant wait for next year, our schedule doesnt seem to be very difficult. You never know how it will pan out but Ive got high hopes this year.

If Christmas were to fall on a Sunday, would football go on?

Our schedule looks fairly easy, compared to last year, problem is you never know what teams will turn it on in which year! Here's to the playoffs!

Gibbs seems pretty scared about the schedule. We play some good teams but compared to last years it doesnt look as bad. Bears, Lions shouldn be managable, Browns to. We play two of the weaker, building divisions

According to the NFL network:

Dallas has the 32nd rated schedule (meaning the easiest)

Wash has the 20th, and they have the toughest of the NFC East teams

Man, we have the 20th ranked schedule. Dallas and Philly are 31st and 32nd and the Giants are 29th. Our division definitly has the easiest schedule. Dont be surprised if our divsion if fighting for both wild cards

According to the NFL, it really just doesn't matter. They have two games scheduled on Christmas. And a friday game on Christmas Eve.
