The Detroit Lions’ 2022 schedule is out, and it’s time to flood the internet with your 17-0 predictions!
We already knew the Lions’ 2022 opponents, and that Detroit has one of the easiest schedules by 2021 record, but the release on Thursday night puts the schedule in order and gives us an idea of how the entire year may play out.
The schedule is highlighted by a tough Thanksgiving matchup against the Buffalo Bills and yet another season finale against the Green Bay Packers—although this time at chilly Lambeau Field. Detroit will have to earn their nationally-televised games this season, as only their Thanksgiving matchup is currently scheduled to air to a nation-wide audience. No primetime games on the initial schedule, although remember that “Sunday Night Football” can be flexed from Week 5 and beyond.
Without further ado, here is the Lions’ schedule!
