Okay, folks, let’s dive into my little project today: getting the NFL Week 1 schedule sorted. Nothing fancy, just wanted a clean, easy-to-read list.

First, I fired up my trusty web browser. I mean, where else do you start, right?
Then, I banged out a quick search. Just typed in something simple like “NFL week 1 schedule”. Didn’t overthink it.
I skipped past all the ad stuff and the usual big-name sports sites. I was looking for something straightforward, no fluff.
I found a few sites that looked promising, and I clicked through to one of them.
The website provided what I was looking for, the schedule of games for week 1.
I grabbed my text editor. Just a plain, simple one. Nothing fancy, just a place to put the info.
I went through the schedule, game by game, and copied the important bits: teams playing and the dates.
I pasted that stuff into my text editor. I wasn’t worried about formatting or anything yet, just getting the raw data in there.
Then I just cleaned it up a bit. Made sure each game was on its own line, that kind of thing.
Here is a simple list, and I’ve created.
NFL Week 1 Schedule
- Thursday, Sept. 5
- Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs
- Friday, Sept. 6 (São Paulo, Brazil)
- Green Bay Packers vs. Philadelphia Eagles
- Sunday, Sept. 8
- Pittsburgh Steelers at Atlanta Falcons
- Arizona Cardinals at Buffalo Bills
- Houston Texans at Indianapolis Colts
- Jacksonville Jaguars at Miami Dolphins
- Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints
- Minnesota Vikings at New York Giants
- New England Patriots at Cincinnati Bengals
- Denver Broncos at Seattle Seahawks
- Dallas Cowboys at Cleveland Browns
- Washington Commanders at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Las Vegas Raiders at Los Angeles Chargers
- Chicago Bears at Tennessee Titans
- Monday, Sept. 9
- New York Jets at San Francisco 49ers
And that’s it! Took me maybe 10 or 15 minutes, tops. Now I’ve got a handy little schedule ready to go for when the season kicks off. No more hunting around online every week to see who’s playing who. Simple, effective, and done!
