NFL schedule release show?

I think 2 things are a given.  We'll open with Philly and we'll play in Green Bay sometime in December.  It seems like we never get a late season, pushing for the playoffs, GB game here late in the year.    

Good Lord, do we really need a two hour special to get the schedule? Ridiculous... :/

especially when it will leak about 4 hours before the show starts.

Yup, by about 1pm we'll have just about the entire thing... 

Definitely not something I'll waste time watching.

Soon, ad agencies will send agents to strap us all into our recliners.

It's better than replay the Top 10 whatever's for the 100th time.

=)   NFL network really struggles for material.  Even their core shows (Total Access, Path to the Draft, Mock Draft Live) are usually about 30% crossover/recycled material.  I waste tremendous amounts of time watching that stuff, but have never watched a minute of these schedule release shows.

Just play old games of the past 50 years on the hour. Problem solved.

Two rumors (good source who admits it's just rumors):
-We do not one at Philadelphia week 1
-We play GB at home on 12/24, Christmas Eve. (Decent speculation that we play at GB sometime between weeks 6-7)

Actually the Vikings and GB had been flipping who got the later season game for years until 2016, when the opening of USB messed things up. We beat GB at the Metrodome week 17 in 2012 to make the playoffs and get Lovie Smith fired.

2009, '11, '13, '15, '17 Vikings home early, Lambeau later

2008, '10, '12, '14 Lambeau early, Vikings home later.

2016: supposed to be Lambeau early, Vikings late, but Vikings wanted Packers for USB opener. So, Lambeau got the later game.

The Packers getting the Lambeau game late in 2017 wasn't a rig, but merely returning to the previous schedule.

2018 will be Lambeau before USB.

Prediction:
Week 1 at Philly
Week 16 at Chicago
Week 17 vs GB
Week 10 Bye Week

Na, we'll get week 2 bye week.  Plus we'll have to play a Thursday night game against green bay in green bay following a London game.

I'm hearing @ GB week 2. That's a tough start if true!

Yup, confirmed @ Philly and then @ GB to start.

The Patriots entire schedule got leaked lol!

WK 16 is incorrect on the list. The Packers are @ the Jets.
