Unless you have been living under a rock, you are well aware that the NFL schedule has been released a few days ago and we could not be more thrilled about it! This NFL season will be so much fun and the amount of top-tier matchups is incredible. I know that the Chicago Bears might not be the best team on paper, but regardless of the talent they have, we are in for a great NFL season. Here are 10 of the best games we will have in store next season and a little explanation of why those games will be great, made by John Breech and Ryan Dunleavy.

Week 1: Bills at Rams.

"This is an awesome kickoff game for the season. We've got the defending champs hosting one of the top contenders, on a field that will be absolutely loaded with stars on both sides of the ball. Plus, there's a bit of an edge with Von Miller playing against the team he just left in free agency."

Week 2: Chargers at Chiefs.

"These two teams played two electric games last season, and considering the talent on hand (particularly at the quarterback position), it seems like that tradition should continue far into the future."

Week 4: Chiefs at Buccaneers

"Tom Brady? Patrick Mahomes? A Super Bowl LV rematch? Sign me up. It's the old GOAT vs. the young superstar and if this game does not entertain it will be the shock of the season."

Week 8: Packers at Bills

"Well, what do we have here ... ANOTHER possible Super Bowl preview?! Yes, that is what we have. How exciting for us. These are two of the top teams in their conference and with Allen and Rodgers running these offenses we should be in for a treat."

Week 8: Commanders at Colts

"QB Homecoming Game II has a very different tone. Carson Wentz was essentially blamed by owner Jim Irsay for the Colts' late-season collapse and booted out of Indianapolis. Former MVP Matt Ryan took Wentz's spot in the Colts' five-year revolving door of quarterbacks. Wentz, who unsubtly suggested he was taking the high road on Irsay, gets one more season to salvage his once-promising career � and it includes two games against the Eagles, from whom he had a first bitter divorce."

Week 10: Cowboys at Packers.

"Dallas and Green Bay have played so many memorable games in the past, but this one will be the first that pits the teams against each other with Mike McCarthy coaching the Cowboys instead of the Packers."

Week 13: Chiefs at Bengals

"Joe Burrow's 2021 Bengals became just the second team to beat Mahomes' Chiefs twice in the same season. This Bengals' season is about proving last year's run to Super Bowl LVI � highlighted by an 18-point comeback win against the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game � was no fluke. If they had this year's offensive line in the Super Bowl, maybe they would be the defending champions."

Week 14: Buccaneers at 49ers.

"Tom Brady traveling to Northern California to take on his boyhood favorite team is always a treat. We're sure to get a whole lot of nostalgia thrown our way for this one. Plus, it should be a fantastic matchup of two terrific teams."

Week 17: Rams at Chargers

"After two decades without the NFL, Los Angeles is back at the epicenter. Rams coach Sean McVay and defensive star Aaron Donald decided against retirement to chase a repeat. The Chargers upgraded significantly in the offseason to make a run around budding star quarterback Justin Herbert after missing the playoffs on the regular season's last snap. What will be the makeup of this crowd at $5 billion SoFi Stadium, where out-of-towners usually rule?"

Week 17: Bills at Bengals.

"Josh Allen, Josh Burrow, Stefon Diggs, Ja'Marr Chase, Gabriel Davis, Tee Higgins ... this game might explode with points. That is, of course, unless the likes of Von Miller and Tre'Davious White and Trey Hendrickson and Jessie Bates and more have something to say about it."
