With the NFL’s regular season finally concluded, each team’s set of opponents for the 2022 regular season are now set. For the Green Bay Packers, who won the NFC North once again in 2021, that means that they will face another first-place schedule, drawing tough matchups in their three games that depend on divisional finishes.
The NFL’s schedule rotation cycles divisionally, with each team cycling through the other divisions in its conference every three years and the other conference’s divisions every four. In 2022, the NFC North draws the NFC East and AFC East divisions. With the division title, the Packers then draw the first-place teams from the other two NFC divisions, the West and South, while the addition of the 17th game to the schedule gives them the division winner out of the AFC South as well.
