Today the NFL has unveiled the full schedule for the upcoming 2016 season. Looking to kick things off with a bang, the league has pitted the Denver Broncos to face-off against the Carolina Panthers in a rematch of Super Bowl 50 as its first game. This is very first time a Super Bowl rematch will be initial game of a season and only the eighth time a Super Bowl rematch has occurred in the following year.
The game, which is set to take place on September 8, 2016 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC will certainly be a doozy as Cam Newton and the Panthers will be looking to avenge their Super Bowl loss against the number one ranked defense in the NFL. With that said, the Broncos still have a lot of questions to answer at the quarterback position as Peyton Manning has retired and backup Brock Osweiler signed with the Houston Texans. The Broncos have signed Mark Sanchez and still hope to acquire San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick via trade.
Look below for the list of all 256 games in the 2016 NFL season.
