The NFL schedule (or any sport's schedule, for that matter) is a funny thing. While every single game matters—whether it results in a win, a loss, or the always dreaded tie—some matchups simply feel bigger than others.
Take the Green Bay Packers' 2025 slate, for instance. Now, divisional games are always big, so we'll take those out of the equation. So, beyond those, even before the acquisition of Micah Parsons, the Week 4 matchup with the Dallas Cowboys felt a little more important due to the history between the two clubs.
Last week's battle with the Pittsburgh Steelers obviously felt a little more special, as that marked the first—and likely only—time the Packers will play against Aaron Rodgers.
