Here’s a look at some of the best tweets following the official schedule release.

If you told me 3 months ago that week 1 MNF was going to be Seahawks-Broncos, I would’ve been so eager to find out who Denver got to replace Drew Lock.

#broncos QB Russell Wilson will be the 5th QB in NFL history to win 100+ games with one franchise and later face them in his career. Wilson will play the Seahawks in Seattle.

Just heard on radio that The Seahawks’ home opener this fall will be a Monday Night Football game against the Broncos….
Also heard a rumor that Denver has a decent QB….— Les LeMieux, Sr (@leslsenior) May 13, 2022
The Broncos play the Seahawks in Week 1. Excuse my bias. HAMMER THE BRONCOS 🐴

this is basically the superbowl for the Seahawks.
If we only win this game I’m content losing the rest lol.

As a Steelers fan, I'm probably more excited about the Broncos/Seahawks game

Pete Carroll is going to raise the 12 flag and fly down to the sideline in a squirrel suit week 1.

If I'm the #Seahawks, I move the play clocks at Lumen Field to a different location just to mess with Russell Wilson in Week 1.
