Love the NFL schedule release tonight. We're gonna have a party at the herd grotto tonight. Joy Taylor is joining me

I love this stuff the week one schedule is already out fired up

Well, you also have a lot of theories around the schedule like a playing win loss is my favorite game

Like you just go down like win loss when you don't you don't cross check or anything like that's every whatever you fan does

But you have a lot of theories around I schedule plays out. I do so the NFL has released its schedule and let me just say this
