How to Use the Pocket Schedule
All kickoff times are listed in Eastern Time. For other zones, subtract one hour for Central, two for Mountain, and three for Pacific. Times and TV windows for later weeks can move when the NFL flexes games, and a few Week 16 to 18 matchups are marked TBD until the league sets the final windows, so check back for the updated printable as those slots lock in.
