De acuerdo con el récord combinado de sus rivales la temporada pasada, San Francisco tiene el calendario más fácil y los Giants el más complicado
El miércoles 14 de mayo la NFL anunciará su calendario para la temporada regular del 2025, en este momento ya conocemos quiénes serán los rivales de los 32 equipos de la liga, jugando en casa y como visitantes.
Con base en eso podemos determinar cuál será el equipo que tendrá el calendario más sencillo y el más difícil considerando el récord combinado de sus rivales la temporada pasada.
En este caso, los San Francisco 49ers tienen el calendario más sencillo de la NFL enfrentando a rivales que se combinaron para un porcentaje de victorias de .415 la temporada pasada, de hecho, los Niners solo enfrentarán a tres equipos que llegaron a los playoffs en el 2024: Los Angeles Rams (dos veces), Houston Texans y Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
En el otro lado del espectro, los New York Giants enfrentan el calendario más complicado de la liga contra rivales que se combinaron para un porcentaje ganador de .574 la temporada pasada.
Los Philadelphia Eagles y Detroit Lions tienen 11 partidos en el 2025 contra equipos que llegaron a los playoffs la temporada pasada. De acuerdo con Elias Sports Bureau, esa es la mayor cantidad de partidos para un equipo contra rivales que jugaron playoffs en la temporada previa desde 1983.
Y ahí no terminan las malas noticias para los Lions, que enfrentan un calendario históricamente complicado. De acuerdo con ESPN Research, Detroit jugará como visitante contra rivales que tuvieron un porcentaje ganador de .667 la temporada pasada, lo que representa el calendario visitante más duro para un equipo en la era del Super Bowl. Siete de los nueve rivales de los Lions llegaron a los playoffs, los únicos que no avanzaron a la postemporada fueron los Cincinnati Bengals y Chicago Bears.
