NFL Schedule Has Error, Chicago Bears 2019 Dates

The NFL's 2019 regular-season schedule has only been out one day and already one official from the league office has admitted to an error.

Both the Oakland Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have six-week stretches in which they won’t play in front of hometown fans. That’s due to bye weeks and road games. However, both teams will play as the home team during those stretches, although they’ll be international games.

The Chicago Bears have four preseason games starting August 8 hosting the Carolina Panthers. The regular season begins September 5 with a home contest against the Green Bay Packers.
