2025 NFL Strength of Schedule Rankings

Our NFL Strength of Schedule rankings represents the average difficulty of opponents that each team has faced or will face during the 2025 season. The strength of an opponent is determined by their ranking in our Composite NFL Power Rankings. A low opponent average ranking (opp avg) indicates a difficult schedule, whereas a high opponent average ranking suggests an easier schedule.
