The 2025 NFL Season: Early Leaks and What We Know So Far
With just days until the official NFL schedule release, the rumor mill is churning! While many teams remain shrouded in mystery, some exciting matchups have already been revealed, giving fans a tantalizing glimpse of the 2025 season. Let's dive into the juicy details and what we know about the upcoming games.
Early 2025 NFL Schedule Reveals: Eagles and Commanders Take Center Stage
One of the biggest surprises? The Washington Commanders will host the reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles in a Week 16 showdown at Northwest Stadium. This highly anticipated game, just days before Christmas, will be part of the NFL's Saturday coverage on FOX. It promises to be a thrilling rematch, considering their intense three-game battle in the previous season.
- Week 11 at Philadelphia: Eagles 26, Commanders 18
- Week 16 at Washington: Commanders 36, Eagles 33
- NFC Championship Game: Eagles 55, Commanders 23
While many predicted a Commanders-Eagles matchup for opening night, the NFL opted for another NFC East rivalry: the Eagles versus the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday Night Football. Although the Cowboys-Eagles clash is guaranteed to draw massive viewership, many fans are eagerly anticipating the Commanders-Eagles rematch, given Jayden Daniels' impressive performance against Philadelphia last season.
But the Eagles aren't the only team with early schedule announcements. Other notable reveals include:
- Season Opener: The Philadelphia Eagles will host the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday, September 4th.
- Week 17: A Saturday night game on December 27th will be streamed exclusively on Peacock.
- Week 16 Saturday Doubleheader: FOX will broadcast a doubleheader featuring Eagles at Commanders and Packers at Bears.
- Christmas Day: Netflix will exclusively stream the Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs.
- Black Friday: Amazon Prime Video will air the Chicago Bears at Philadelphia Eagles on November 28th.
The Warner Bros. Discovery Games Division: A Troubled Future?
In a completely different realm, the gaming world is experiencing some turbulence. Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) reported a significant 48% drop in games revenue for Q1 2025. This downturn has been attributed to a lack of major game releases and the higher performance of games in the previous year, like Hogwarts Legacy and Mortal Kombat 1. The company’s response? Sadly, the closure of three major game studios and the cancellation of a highly anticipated Wonder Woman game.
The future of WBD's games division remains uncertain. While a Hogwarts Legacy sequel seems inevitable, and new Game of Thrones titles are on the horizon, the lack of big-name releases raises serious questions. The underperformance of Mortal Kombat 1 and the failure of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League cast a shadow over future DC games. Will Warner Bros. Games ultimately sell off assets, divest, or license its IPs to other studios? Only time will tell.
The 2025 NFL Season: A Season of Anticipation
The NFL's 2025 season is shaping up to be a thrilling one. With early schedule reveals sparking excitement and the official release just around the corner, fans are eagerly awaiting the full schedule to start making their predictions. Will the Eagles continue their dominant run? Can the Commanders avenge their NFC Championship loss? And will any surprises emerge from the remaining unreleased games? We'll soon find out!
Stay tuned for the official schedule release on Wednesday, May 14th, at 8 p.m. ET!
