2026 Schedule

2026 Strength of Schedule

Each team's 2026 fantasy schedule, scored by position. Higher PPG allowed = easier matchup. Full-season SoS plus a fantasy-playoffs view (Weeks 14-17) so you can plan trade deadlines around the run that actually matters.

Methodology

Strength of schedule for a team at a position is the average fantasy PPG that the team's 2026 opponents allowed to that position last season. Higher = easier schedule.

Numbers will shift as 2026 games play. Defensive personnel, scheme changes, and bye-week scheduling all move SoS during the year. We refresh daily so the current view always reflects the latest data and remaining schedule.
