Hosts Brad Fowler and Alex Higdon break down the biggest winners and losers from the 2026 NFL schedule release, including which teams got completely screwed by the schedule makers — and which contenders may have been handed a massive advantage.

The guys dive into the Chargers’ brutal midseason gauntlet, why the Chiefs defense could face its toughest QB stretch of the Mahomes era, and how the 49ers’ international travel schedule may become a serious issue late in the season.

Could the Packers be perfectly positioned to win the NFC North? Do the Saints quietly have one of the easiest playoff paths in the NFL? And can the Jets finally build momentum before their schedule gets tougher?

They also debate whether Sunday Night Football has its weakest lineup in years — and if Thursday Night Football has quietly become the NFL’s best primetime package.
