The NFL has made an entire event of releasing the upcoming schedule. However, we already know what opponents the Packers will face.
Before the dates and times of the games tomorrow night, I want to look at my three most anticipated games on the Packers schedule. Hope springs eternal looking ahead on what is a pivotal season.
Game 1: Packers vs Ravens
If you want to talk about a game that will be electric, the Packers hosting the Ravens has it all. The Ravens offense is loaded and includes the star power of Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. The Packers and Ravens has been a dream Super Bowl matchup of mine for years.
In my perfect world, this is a Super Bowl preview. Especially given the way their seasons have recently ended. The post season heart break for both of them is strong.
Both teams are entering make or break seasons. If they can string together impressive wins and build confidence heading into the playoffs, they both will be dangerous. I would love to see this matchup closer to the end of the year.
Game 2: Packers vs Commanders
After an entire offseason of Caleb Williams hype, Jayden Daniels delivered one of the most impressive rookie seasons. Entering year two, it is difficult to see Daniels taking a step back.
Daniels exudes confidence and poise in the pocket. In many ways, his composure reminds me a lot of Jordan Love. Both quarterbacks do not allow mistakes to rattle them, and they both have rocket arms.
With both teams being fairly solid on offense and defense, this game has the potential to be a shootout. The Commanders ended their season on the brink of a Super Bowl. We will see if the team can build off the momentum or faulter to the pressure.
Game 3: Packers at Steelers
This game is here for obvious reasons. It looks like Aaron Rodgers will be the next quarterback of the Steelers. With Rodgers leading the Steelers, this game will attract plenty of headlines.
Aaron Rodgers lone Super Bowl title came against the Steelers. Mike Tomlin and Aaron Rodgers have deep respect for each other. If any coach can handle Rodgers, it is Tomlin.
If Rodgers becomes a Steeler, the Steelers are hoping to catch lightning in a bottle. Rodgers was not the savior the Jets franchise was expecting. All there is to wonder is what could have been due to his Achilles injury.
The main attraction to this game being Aaron Rodgers is truly all that matters. The Packers have not faced him since he walked off Lambeau Field with Randall Cobb.
Overall, the Packers have even more intriguing opponents on the schedule. Some other games I am looking forward to are the Bengals, Eagles and Broncos.
Another notable schedule announcement is the Packers will not play an international game. Honestly, after Jordan Love’s injury in Brazil, I will gladly keep the team in the United States. Tomorrow we can officially start planning our trips around an exciting Packers season.
