NFL schedule 2014: Week by week

The NFL officially released its 2014 schedule on Wednesday night, giving fans their first look at next season's slate.

The season kicks off with a Thursday night matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 4. As would be expected, the Seahawks have been rewarded for their world title with a slew of primetime matchups, the most intriguing of which is a Thanksgiving night rumble with the archival San Francisco 49ers.

Week 1 also features a matchup between Andrew Luck and his predecessor in Indy, as the Indianapolis Colts take on the Denver Broncos on Sunday Night Football. Other notable primetime action includes the New England Patriots and Kansas City Chiefs in Week 5, the New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers in Week 9 and the Chicago Bears and Packers in Week 10.
