Do you guys know if they will release the 2011-12 schedule without a new CBA in place? I guess if the # of games in a season is part of a new agreement that could really mess things up. I love having the schedule to look over to help plan out my year, hopefully we can still get this. Thanks guys!
IF they agree to 18 game season it will not be in effect until the 2012 I imagine. If there is a lockout nothing probably will be in print or sent out to print.
Thanks bro! It will totally suck not knowing in advance the dates for some of the road games, flights will cost more if we wanted to make trips out to Dallas, NY, SD etc...
Typically, I think they release the schedule in early-mid April - probably a week or two before the draft. Obviously not having a CBA might change some things for this year. Best you can see now is who each team would play through 2017 based on the rotational schedule. (This site doesn't take a potential 18 game schedule into account as of yet). http://www.johnnyroadtrip.com/schedules/nfl_future_afce.htm
It should be business as usual. A lockout shouldn't prevent the release of the schedule as there's too many ancillary events that need to be dealt with in advance. Because of this, I also wouldn't expect any increase in games played to take effect until 2012 at the earliest.
