1. Chiefs will be playing on six different days of the week. Christmas is on Wednesday this year.
2. Both Cowboys - Giant games will be on Thursdays
4. Bears and Steelers set to make history. One of the most bizarre quirks on the 2024 schedule actually happened to two different teams. Both the Bears and Steelers won't play their first divisional opponent until Week 11
9. Home sweet home for Eagles. Philadelphia will get to play four of its final five games at home
