“Scheduled” Schedule Leaks Are En Route
May 12th, 2025
Officially, the 2025 NFL schedule will be released on Wednesday at 8 p.m.
Will the Bucs play Miami in Spain? In Detroit on Thanksgiving? At home on Christmas Day?
Those options are on table.
This morning, NBC had a fancy Today show release of the NFL season-opener. It’ll be the Cowboys at the Eagles on Thursday, Sept. 4. Hardly the best matchup on the Eagles’ schedule, but what a NFL opening night is always beautiful spectacle, a signal that all is right in the world.
And since the NFL loves the spotlight, later today, Fox and Amazon plan to announce one game on their schedules. Amazon has the traditional Thursday night slate of games plus Christmas night.
Tomorrow morning, NFL Network plans to unveil the NFL’s international schedule. Miami is “hosting” a game in Madrid, and the Bucs are on one of the team’s on the Dolphins’ home schedule. However, Joe was sniffing around One Buc Palace recently and was told the Bucs are “very unlikely” to be the choice for Spain.
Also tomorrow, one ESPN game will shared during ABC’s Good Morning America broadcast.

Hate night games, hate games outside the country. Also hate the fact you’ll need Netflix, Peacock, Amazon, and God knows what other pay TV to see a game. I know, I’m old, and just don’t want to get with the times that keep changing.

I would love a Christmas day game!

Man, I’d luv a turket day game against Detroit. Big dinner with the fam and drinks with my Bucs.

Would love to see a Christmas game!
Hodad – Hang in there! I agree about the streaming costs and inconvenience at times. It getting more about money, like pretty much everything else. Who knows, we can be watching our team in the playoffs and SB again. It’s going to be good football to enjoy!
Upstate NY BUC – I have family and friends there that would love that too.

Thanksgiving would be fun

I’m as old school as they come. I’m a happy cat if all their games were scheduled for Sunday at 1:00. It just works! Knowing that it is impossible as others have said Bucs V. Lions on Thanksgiving would be totally rad. Absolutely gnarly.

Someone decided to hit the sauce a little early on a Monday morning.
Superbowl? Are they gifting tickets to Todd and 53 friends to watch the teams play that actually want to win more than the division?

The NFL turns everything into a circus spectacle, even the schedule. Speaks to the popularity of the league as it’s headed towards flag football.
Meanwhile, the fewer high profile games the better. Todd seems to make sure the Bucs are at their flattest and more unprepared for such games.

“””Amazon has the traditional Thursday night slate of games plus Christmas night.”””
There’s nothing traditional about Amazon’s Thurs night garbage games.

Give me the four toughest games to start.
Bucs have a history of 3-1 to start the season.

ToddBowles#1 – Respectfully, there isn’t much time to hit the sauce while working over 50 hrs a week. Your comment gave me a good laugh though.
Being optimistic about our team is a good thing. Great draft, great veterans, great coaches and GM, great owners, and great fans! Look around the league, it could be much worse. Come on, be happy for what we have.

Like in 2024 the Packers were projected to compete and got put into the game. Maybe the NFL thinks the same will be true for the Cowboys.
If Bucs get a Christmas game I would think that the Falcons would be the foe. It’s late enough for Divisional Games and could possibly be for 1st Place with 2 weeks to go. December in Tampa I doubt there will be any snow but maybe a couple drunk Santa’s in the stands.

Looking to take my annual trip this year to a Bucs road game. We are talking Rams.
Been to see the Bucs play road games already in:
Atlanta
Buffalo
Detroit
Houston
and
New Orleans
That leaves
LA
Miami
Seattle
and
Carolina

@Heyjude,
Your wasting your time on that one, TODDBOWLES#1 doesn’t know what optimistic is and only comes here to bash his so called “favorite Team” (which I find hard to believe) we could go undefeated this year and win the SB and he would still find something to complain about. Just the type of dude he is. I feel bad for the ppl that have to be around u.
TODDBOWLES#1 is the ultimate KAREN of JBF and takes pride in being the #1 ANTI-BUCS FAN.
