NFL MOCK Schedule News and Notes





NFL MOCK Schedule News and Notes



  • NFL changed their bye week scheduling from last year.  For the 2011 season, bye weeks lasted from Week 5 - Week 11 (excluding week 10).  For the 2012 season, bye weeks are from Week 5 - Week 10.
  • NFL Thursday Night Football - All 32 teams play one game on a Thursday.  NFL Network carries a total of 13 games from Week 2 - Week 16, excluding Week 8 (MLB World Series) and Week 12 (NBC carries the Thanksgiving primetime game).   The NFL really tried to limit teams from traveling cross-country for Thursday Night Football and it mostly worked (except for the Buffalo Bills at San Francisco 49ers in Week 10 and the Oakland Raiders at the Cincinnati Bengals Week 11).  Also every team playing on Thursday has a Sunday game the prior week (except for the San Francisco 49ers, who have their bye week).
  • The New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys will kick off the NFL Season on Wednesday, September 5th on NBC.  They also lead the league in appearances in primetime with 5 games each.  The Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints, Green Bay Packers, Detroit Lions, Chicago Bears, New York Jets, Baltimore Ravens, and Denver Broncos all have 4 appearances.
  • The NFL International Series continues with the New England Patriots at the St. Louis Rams on October 28th in London, England and the New York Jets at the Buffalo Bills on December 16th in Toronto, Canada
  • Week 1 of the 2012 NFL season is highlighted by NBC Sunday Night Football matchup of the Houston Texans at the Denver Broncos on September 9th.  On Monday, September 10th, ESPN carries a double header lineup of the Green Bay Packers at the Detroit Lions at 7:00pm and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the Oakland Raiders at 10:15pm. 
  • The Thanksgiving lineup for the 2012 NFL season features the Houston Texans at the Detroit Lions (12:30pm CBS), the New Orleans Saints at the Dallas Cowboys (4:15pm FOX), and the New England Patriots at the Tennessee Titans (8:20pm NBC).
  • The ESPN Monday Night Football Game on December 24th featuring the Denver Broncos at the Oakland Raiders has been moved from 8:30pm to 8:00pm.

  1. Is there any way for you to prove this is real to me? You can do it anonymously if you want. If you can back this up, this will be a big story and you'll get some serious traffic (so get some ads up!). Contact me through the contact form at pigskinbuzz.com.

    1. Not true. I remember at least one team had 3 away games last year. I think it might have been the Rams, because sports announcers were talking all year about how they might be able to make it into the playoffs if they could survive the first half of their schedule.

  3. Still, this does seem highly implausible. Do you have any kind of source? Hell, why not just go ahead and post the URL or source code for this? If you don't, nobody's going to believe this is legitimate.

  4. I'll second that. URL or it's not real.

  5. For the best approach to earn coins in Madden 21, play having a low cost non rare group to begin, and as opposed to getting fitness or contracts, just sell players on and acquire replacements. You will not drop coins this way. Do any inexpensive SBC and sell anything. By the time 1st week or two of rewards roll about, you are going to have some coins to mess about with. Go for big league SBC Silver's just before they may be released, check out who has been promoted and come across teams with at the very least a single silver needed. Huesca and Cardiff this year for example Or you can pay additional consideration to the absolutely free coins or bonus activity in the trusted Madden 21 coin seller or one of the most dependable MUT 21 Coins website such asEZMUT who trades coins via Player Auction 3.0, Comfort Trade 3.0 and Player Auction P2P to keep your game account safest.
