Now let's not even start breaking down how tough or easy we think this schedule is. Nothing that happened this year will be the same next year. Instead, let's look at some of the story lines.
We'll see Cleveland and head coach Kevin Stefanski back at U.S. Bank Stadium for the first time since departing Minnesota! We'll get to see Kyler Murray & Lamar Jackson up close and personal. We might get to see a new QB in Pittsburgh/Carolina/LA.
It's taking shape to be a fun year, and already something to look forward to for the future!
