NFL Hype Just Leveled up!
With the entire 272-game regular-season schedule now known, some games have already emerged as favorites. The Seattle Seahawks will open the 2026 season against the New England Patriots in a Super Bowl rematch, marking the first time since 2016 that the NFL has kicked off a season with two former Super Bowl opponents facing each other.
The league also has a new twist to Thanksgiving week with its inaugural Thanksgiving Eve game against the Green Bay Packers to be broadcast on Netflix on Thanksgiving Eve, and the Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos will be featured on the Black Friday game list. Thanksgiving Day itself will close with another blockbuster as Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs take on Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills, alongside Bears-Lions and Eagles-Cowboys earlier in the day. And just like last year, Christmas Day will once again feature a triple-header packed with division rivalries and prime-time action.
