The 2023 NFL schedule release will clarify when and where all 32 teams will play their 17-game slate, but there are still some aspects to the schedule that are already known.
Even the opponents are known. Thanks to the NFL’s scheduling formula from 2002 — and updated to accommodate a 17th game in 2021 — fans can be assured of who will be visiting and where their team will be traveling for years to come. The only true variables are the same place finisher games.
Strength of schedule is another aspect that is already known about the 2023 slate. By adding up the combined 2022 wins, losses, and ties from their 2023 opponents, teams are able to understand their strength of schedule.
