The 2023 NFL schedule was released Thursday at 8 p.m. ET, but Packers fans didn’t have to wait that long as Green Bay’s entire schedule was leaked earlier in the day.
There are always some schedule leaks ahead of the official release, but rarely do you see a team’s entire schedule leaked, and we have that here (official now).
Here’s a look at the Packers’ schedule:
Week 1 (September 10): Packers at Bears, 4:25 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 2 (September 17): Packers at Falcons, 1 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 3 (September 24th): Saints at Packers, 1 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 4 (Thursday, September 28th): Lions at Packers, 8:15 p.m. ET (Amazon)
Week 5 (Monday, October 9th): Packers at Raiders, 8:15 p.m. ET (ESPN)
Week 6: BYE
Week 7 (Oct 22): Packers at Broncos, 4:25 p.m. ET (CBS)
Week 8 (Oct 29): Vikings at Packers, 1 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 9 (November 5th): Rams at Packers, 1 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 10 (November 12): Packers at Steelers, 1 p.m. ET (CBS)
Week 11 (November 19): Chargers at Packers, 1:00 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 12 (Thanksgiving): Packers at Lions, 12:30 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 13 (Dec 3): Chiefs at Packers, 8:20 p.m. ET (NBC)
Week 14 (Monday 11 December): Packers at Giants, 8:15 p.m. ET (ESPN)
Week 15 (Dec 17): Buccaneers at Packers, 1 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 16 (Dec 24): Packers at Panthers, 1 p.m. ET (Fox)
Week 17 (Dec 31): Packers at Vikings, 8:20 p.m. ET (NBC)
Week 18 (January 6 or 7): Bears at Packers, TBA
When I watch the games, two things stand out to me: First, the NFL hasn’t done Jordan Love any favors. The Packers’ new quarterback has to open the season with two straight away games. Also, the Packers have to tour both Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, which probably won’t excite most of the players in the roster.
An interesting twist is that the Packers will play two games against the Lions on Thursday.
