The Green Bay Packers schedule is out, and it’s time to start analyzing what games will be easy, but these games are going to be the opposite of that.

The Green Bay Packers schedule with all of their dates and times for the 2019 season have finally been released. They start the season with a favorable schedule as five of their first seven games are at home, but they have to go on the road eventually. That’s why four of their last six, including their final two, are all on the road. They play arguably the best division in football last season in the AFC West along with the NFC East.

They also have matchups against the Carolina Panthers and San Francisco 49ers sprinkled in between their six divisional matchups. After two years away from the playoffs, the Green Bay Packers are hoping things will change for the better in the first year under Matt LaFleur. He has the offensive acumen to take them there, but they’re going to need to play some great football, especially down the stretch to get them into playoff position.

There are some easier games on the schedule, like matchups against the Washington Redskins and Oakland Raiders, but these five games are the most brutal they have on the schedule. They’ll have to play their best football, and, if they’re able to finish these three games 3-2, it should be considered a win.
