If we're being honest, this whole week is an overreaction, right? We've known 2025 opponents for every NFL team since the end of the 2024 regular season. Wednesday night's announcement of the full 2025 schedule -- following a few days' worth of individual-game reveals (mostly involving the Eagles) -- is mainly noteworthy because it offers fans and reporters the chance to make a bunch of flight and hotel reservations.
But hey, it is fun. We sit here in the middle of May, with the NBA and NHL playoffs dominating sports coverage, feeling about as far from the NFL season as possible.
