How are we playing Atlanta again?

Plus your same ranked opponent is also on a fixed schedule. The years it seemed they played the Packers in GB "every year" was because they kept finishing the same rank as the Packers and the NFC North same ranked opponent for the NFC East is on a 2 home/ 2 away schedule. (In between every 3 years when the NFC East plays the entire NFC North.

Same ranked opponent for Cowboys & Giants ("XXX" they play the whole division that year): 2019/2020/2021/2022/2023/2024

NFC North: XXX-AWAY-AWAY-XXX-HOME-HOME
NFC South: AWAY-HOME-XXX-HOME-AWAY-XXX
NFC West: HOME-XXX-HOME-AWAY-XXX-AWAY

Every team has one division that is on a AWAY-AWAY-HOME-HOME, one that is AWAY-HOME...HOME-AWAY and one that is HOME-AWAY...AWAY-HOME. That's the only way to keep the schedule perfectly balanced and your 2 games against the same ranked opponent are always 1 @ home and 1 away.

Then you alternate home and away every 3 years when you play the entire division (the "XXX" years). So if every team in the NFC finished the same rank in their division for 6 consecutive years, the Cowboys would play every NFC team (non-NFCE) exactly 3 times away and 3 times at home.

The Eagles & Commanders are on an opposite schedule that mirrors this.

Good synopsis. I never knew the sequence in home and away. Now I be smarter - than you.
 
I'm shocked that my thread went 3 pages but now definitely me and everyone else know the answer we have great posters and some a-holes
 
This all ways seems to come up. Is there a place where we can put this info and sticky it?
