Leader Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Home Games Chicago (NFC North) Detroit (NFC North) Minnesota (NFC North) Philadelphia (NFC East) Washington (NFC East) Denver (AFC West) Oakland (AFC West) NFC South team TBD (Carolina, Tampa or Atlanta) Road Games Chicago (NFC North) Detroit (NFC North) Minnesota (NFC North) Dallas (NFC East) New York Giants (NFC East) Kansas City (AFC West) Los Angeles Chargers (AFC West) NFC West team TBD (San Francisco or Arizona) As of right now, the Packers look to have a fairly tough road slate, traveling to play as many as five 2018 playoff teams. The Bears have locked up the NFC North while the Cowboys can do so this weekend, and the Vikings are still holding the sixth seed in the NFC. Meanwhile, the Chiefs and Chargers are both 11-3 and are duking it out in the AFC West for not just the division title but perhaps home-field advantage in the AFC playoffs. The home slate appears a bit easier; Washington and Philly are both alive in the Wild Card hunt, however, and could catch Minnesota. However, the AFC West teams coming in are both sub-.500.

OneTwoSixFive Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Although you can never be sure how a team will do, until they start playing, those away games look tough. The divisional games are tough enough (the NFC North isn't easy at the moment), but they happen every year...........it's the away games outside the division that look tricky. KC are an 11-3 team so far (with two games left to play). Cowboys will be tricky in Dallas, Chargers are a team on the rise (also 11-3 so far this year, as Leader points out). If the last team is SF, they should have Garoppolo back as QB, so they should be tougher than they have been for many years. The home games aren't so bad. Nice to see Philly and Denver as home games. Overall, tricky, but doable if the Pack are playing decent football................and that, right there, is the big question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a terrible year, Rodgers was off and McCarthy was finally exposed. A good draft and a couple of pieces in free agency should set up straight. It would help if we had good health as well.

Gopher Trace Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Based on where those teams are right now, that schedule is pretty brutal, home and away. Then again, the Vikings looked really formidable last year only to turn out to look pretty mediocre the next, so you truly can never tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 That home schedule looks good tbh. Vikes/Bears/Eagles the only teams that jump out at you. The rest are some real bad squads as of today(Denver, Oakland, Detroit with Washington and Carolina looking mediocre) Road schedule looks rough though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's my take: The Division games are a wash. We know how they'll play already. CHI/MN will be top comp - but we can beat them both. Face it. We played like **** all year - didnt put together a single complete game (that I can remember anyway) - we split with both of them and could have had CHI a few weeks ago if we'd just made some plays late. This just this wasnt our year for making plays. Oh well. I've highlighted what now appear to be the toughest of the "irregular" opponents. Time will tell. Right now I'm more worried about our team than who we'll be playing. Somebody's gotta put Humpty-Dumpty back together again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lodestar Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 At least the Chargers are a team that doesn't really have a strong home field advantage, although it does mean traveling to the west coast. And maybe we'll luck out and get the 49ers early in the season while Garoppolo is shaking off the rust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReadyToThump Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 8-8 8-0 at home 0-8 on the road And with the 16th pick in the 2020 NFL draft, the Packers select Aaron Rodgers replacement - John Doe - QB from QBU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Anonymous Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Not 100% but somewhat definitive. The Chargers don't want to give up the Packers home gate and their massive following... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another year where it'll be imperative to go 8-0 or 7-1 at home. Except instead of going 1-7 on the road, we'll need to go at least 4-4 or so.
