The Green Bay Packers knew their opponents and number of road games before Wednesday's night schedule release, but the arrangement of the 17 games did create a few weird stretches for Matt LaFleur's team to navigate in 2025. Two are long stretches with sparce home games; another is a pivotal stretch in the NFC North.
While the Packers do start with home games against the Detroit Lions and Washington Commanders, the immediate stretch after is an interesting one. LaFleur's team will play just one home game between Weeks 3-8, with four road games and a bye mixed in with a visit from the Cincinnati Bengals.
