NFL football schedule for 2022 season

Your first look at the full NFL schedule for the 2022 season.

The 2022 NFL season is finally here.

This year finds the Los Angeles Rams as reigning Super Bowl champions, the G.O.A.T. Tom Brady returns after a 40-day retirement this offseason, and a new generation of quarterbacks looks to re-define the game for the 21st century.

Here is the full schedule for the 2022 NFL football season.

A look ahead to the 2022 NFL Football Schedule

First, how the NFL schedule is made

1. Home and away against its three division opponents (Six games)
2. The four teams from another division within its conference on a rotating three-year cycle (Four games)
3. The four teams from a division in the other conference on a rotating four-year cycle (Four games)
4. Two intra-conference games based on the prior year’s standings (these games match a first-place team against the first-place teams in the two same-conference divisions the team is not scheduled to play that season) (Two games)
5. One inter-conference game based on the prior year's standings on a rotating four-year cycle. These games match a first-place team from one division against a first-place team in an opposite conference division that the team is not scheduled to play that season. 
6. The second-place, third-place and fourth-place teams in each division are similarly paired. The home conference for this game will rotate each season.
