Washington Redskins Home and Away Opponents List for 2017 -

Holy Cow! Look at our opponents for next season. We had better fix the defense! Yikes! Only two that I find remotely comfortable are the Rams and the 49ers. I realize things can change from season to season, but my gosh, Seahawks, Chiefs, and Saints away? I hope we fix our defense in the offseason!

Yep but four of those teams don't even have a head coach as of today and the Saints defense is not that strong. Skins still have much to improve on before taking anyone for granted.

Vikings and Saints (our 2 unique teams) are about like us, they will be a good test of whether we improve or not. Otherwise neither the NFC or AFC West divisions are killers. If we resolve some defensive issues, and generally improve in the 3rd yr of this system we ought to be a true contender. Sucks that its 9 months till the season starts...

Redskins play out in Socal twice next year. Sweet, going to at least 1 live game in 2017.

This is great!
Hopefully the Bolts are still playing in "The Murph".

Agree, I can walk there from my Condo. Can't walk to LA.

A lot can change and will by next year.

It is harder than this year!!! Not good if we don't upgrade the defense and get a real running game going.

There is no way of knowing what the next year team strengths will be. I dont think these opponents look anything near as intimidating as our schedule did last year at this time.

Technically, we had a first place schedule, but it's not the same as the first place schedule from years ago.

Our schedule was the same, as our NFC East brethren, outside of us playing Arizona and Carolina.

We lost both of those. Did dallas or ny lose both their positional games. I dont believe so.

That sounds familiar..... lol

Just looking at the schedule from this season's perspective, it's pretty intimidating. A lot can happen between now and next season, certainly. Still, it doesn't look like a cream puff schedule by any means - except for the 49ers and Rams.

Would be interesting if we wind up playing a Rams team coached by Sean McVay!
