In my last post, I mentioned that I haven’t been able to work on this website the way I’ve wanted to for years. Life just had a way of getting in the way.

But since my retirement from my full-time gig on September 2, I finally have a little breathing room and some free time to devote to this site again. It feels good to move forward with this website.

And what better way to jump back in than by introducing something new?


Introducing the One Page Printable NFL Schedule by Team

This is a brand-new addition to the Football Weblog lineup: the One Page Printable NFL Schedule by Team.

It’s similar in spirit to our longtime favorite, the One Page Printable Schedule by Week, and, as always, we’ll keep all of these schedules updated with the latest scores throughout the season, just like we’ve done for years.

To download the One Page NFL Schedule by Team, click the blue NFL Schedules button below, or select NFL Schedules from the Football Weblog menu.

Now, condensing an entire NFL season onto a single page is never an easy task. Einstein warned me that there is always the possibility of tearing a hole in the fabric of the football universe, but I figured I’d give it a whirl anyway.


A Shout-Out to Jon and William Wright

This new schedule idea didn’t come out of nowhere. I have to give a big thank-you to loyal reader Jon Wright, and his 9-year-old son, William, for not only suggesting it, but having the gumption to keep asking for it.

I knew it was a good idea all along, but as I mentioned in my last post, I just couldn’t bring myself to take it on. I was afraid of biting off more than I could chew. Oh, and there’s that whole ‘tearing a hole in the fabric of the football universe’ thing.

Jon assured me that young William has a pretty solid handle on Einstein physics, and he was fairly confident that the football universe would survive the experiment. That convinced me to take the risk…and frankly, that worry fades a bit the older I get.


One Page, One Mission

So here it is: another improbable attempt to fit the chaos of an NFL season neatly onto a single page. Once again, I’ve managed to defy reason and mathematics to cram the league’s madness into one tidy sheet. Einstein would be proud. Or horrified. Maybe both.

Either way, I hope you’ll find the new One Page Printable NFL Schedule by Team useful, and maybe even a little fun. Enjoy!

The truth is, I haven’t been able to work on this website the way I’ve wanted for years. Life had other plans.

In recent years, especially since 2018, my work hours shifted, my older brother’s declining health called for my support, and I took on added responsibilities with a local non-profit. While those commitments were important and worthwhile, they left little time for myself or this site.

And yet, through all of it, I’m proud to say that Football Weblog never went dark. Even when my plate was full, I kept the basics alive, publishing the One Page Printable Schedules, updating the Standings, and keeping scores current. It wasn’t everything I wanted to do, but it was enough to keep this place moving forward. Thank you for sticking with me through these lean years, it means a lot.

Now, things are starting to change. I retired on September 2, and since then I’ve been tying up long-delayed projects and clearing the backlog that accumulated over the years. For the first time in a long while, I finally have some free time and can devote more energy to this website.

Moving forward, I hope to bring more content, better quality, and more frequent updates. I can finally give this site the attention it deserves, and I’m looking forward to seeing what’s possible.

I’m excited for what’s ahead, and I hope you’ll join me on this run. A new day is rising, and with some extra time finally on my side, I plan to make the most of it.

As always, run to daylight!

Just a quick note to let you know I’ll be traveling and away from my computer from September 24–29. During that time, the One-Page Printable Schedules and Standings won’t be updated.

The good news: if all goes according to plan, everything will be caught up and refreshed on the morning of September 30. After that, I don’t foresee any interruptions, so we should be smooth sailing the rest of the way.

I apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause, and thank you for your patience. Think of it as a “bye week” for the updates (everybody needs one now and then).

I appreciate your understanding, and I’ll be back on schedule soon!

Dearest Hans,

Summer has arrived in Princeton, and with it, my seasonal confusion regarding the NFL’s ever-shifting schedule. But today, I write not to lament, but to celebrate. I have encountered a document of such elegance, such improbable density, that I feel compelled to share it with you: the entire National Football League schedule, compressed onto a single page.

This marvel—crafted by minds no doubt touched by genius—contains every game, every week, every bye, every kickoff time. It is a feat of spatial compression rivaling the densest phenomena of our universe. Yes, Hans. While contemplating this very schedule, years ago, the notion of black holes first occurred to me. How could so much information exist in so little space? This schedule, in all its simple, glorious design, may be the closest thing to a black hole ever put in print. I suspect even light cannot escape its gridlines.

You must acquire one. Affix it to your refrigerator. Frame it above your hearth. Fold it neatly and carry it in your jacket pocket like a sacred equation, ready to consult whenever the mysteries of football time beckon. I enclose a copy, but additional versions exist for each American time zone. Truly, this is the unification of space, time, and American football.

Warmest regards,
Albert


To download Einstein’s favorite NFL schedule (or at least the one he would’ve loved), click the blue NFL Schedules button below—or select NFL Schedules from the Football Weblog menu.

Print it. Use it. Stare into it long enough, and you may feel time itself slow down—just as Einstein predicted.

This post was supposed to go out this morning, but…well, let’s just say life had other plans. My brief window of opportunity to write before my day job started was entirely devoured by updating the schedules. But hey, at least the schedules are shiny and up-to-date.

The NFL has officially unveiled the Week 18 schedule, and it’s packed with must-watch games with playoff-seeding implications. Here’s the lineup:

  • Saturday, Jan. 4: ESPN/ABC will kick off with a doubleheader. First, the Cleveland Browns take on the Baltimore Ravens. While the Browns have little to play for, the game carries significant implications for the AFT North crown. Then, the Cincinnati Bengals head to Pittsburgh to face the Steelers. Rivalries don’t get much juicier than this.
  • Sunday, Jan. 5: The regular season wraps up with #Game272. The Minnesota Vikings travel to Detroit to face the Lions on NBC’s Sunday Night Football. Whether you’re rooting for purple or Honolulu blue, this primetime showdown should be electric.

All our One Page Schedules have been updated to reflect these changes. You can find the revised schedules by clicking the “NFL Schedules” button below or accessing them through the menu.

Thanks for bearing with me as I juggled schedules this morning! And remember: Always Run to Daylight!

Football Weblog’s One Page Printable Schedule is as ubiquitous today as sliced bread. But back in 1969, it was cutting-edge technology. Fueled by the Cold War, it became a race between the National Football League (NFL) and the Soviet Comrade Football Collective (SCFC) to shrink an entire professional football schedule to fit onto a single letter-sized sheet of paper. Galvanized by President John F. Kennedy’s speech, the drive to achieve the unthinkable was ultimately a success.

In his speech, JFK declared, “We choose to create a one-page printable NFL schedule. We choose to create a one-page printable NFL schedule in this season and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.”

This monumental effort marked a significant milestone in schedule creation and established Football Weblog as a leader in the scheduling race.

See for yourself. To access Football Weblog’s One Page schedules, click the blue NFL Schedules button below, or select NFL Schedules from Football Weblog’s menu. You’ll be taken to the NFL Schedules page with access to all of Football Weblog’s printable NFL schedules. To the schedule and beyond!

Greetings, gridiron aficionados! It’s that time of year where we once again explore the tangled, intricate foliage of the NFL Coaching Tree. Like a majestic oak spreading its branches across the football landscape, the coaching tree tells the story of mentorship, growth, and the occasional pruning of under-performing branches.

As we embark on this arboreal adventure, let’s take a moment to appreciate the sturdy trunks and verdant leaves that make up the coaching forest of the NFL. From the towering redwoods of seasoned veterans to the sprightly saplings of rookie head coaches, every branch has a story to tell.

Some old branches have withered away, while others have burst forth with fresh shoots eager to prove their mettle on the sideline. Some coaches have branched out to new teams, while others have been unceremoniously chopped down, their coaching careers ending up as mere firewood for the off-season rumor mill.

Will Shipley, Football Weblog’s inaugural “Adopt-A-Player”, makes history as the first of the program’s selections to enter the NFL. The Philadelphia Eagles chose Shipley with the 127th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Shipley’s potential as a high school athlete was evident, and this recognition highlighted his promise as a future star in the football world.

The Eagles’ decision to draft Shipley was strategic, as they traded picks with Houston to secure his talents for their roster. Shipley, known for his versatility as a runner, pass catcher, and kick returner, expressed his commitment to hard work and earning the respect of his new teammates and coaches during his introductory press conference as an Eagle.

Shipley’s collegiate career at Clemson further solidified his status as a dynamic playmaker. Standing at 5-11 and weighing 206 pounds, he amassed over 3,200 total yards of offense and 34 touchdowns during his three years with the Tigers. His performance in 2023 was particularly notable, earning him recognition as the first Power 5 player since Christian McCaffrey to achieve certain statistical milestones.
