San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (13) talks with Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff (16) after the NFC Championship football game at Levi's Stadium.

The time has come. The 2024 NFL schedule has finally been unveiled, and with it comes a flurry of great matchups that fans can't wait to see.

Although we already knew the matchups for every NFL team months ago, we didn't know the weeks that those teams would be playing each other. While the teams participating in the game are important when determining the best games of the season, it certainly isn't everything. Whether or not the game is scheduled for primetime, the week its played, and the scenarios surrounding each outcome play massive roles in the public's anticipation.

With that said, here are the five best games of the upcoming season.

NFL Draft: 15 biggest instant-impact rookies in 2024: Can anyone catch Caleb Williams?

Best upcoming NFL games of 2024:

5) Week 7, Denver Broncos at New Orleans Saints (TNF)

The Denver Broncos are not a very enticing team, but watching Sean Payton go back to New Orleans...now that's an interesting storyline. While neither of these teams has serious Super Bowl aspirations this season, this is a game where Sean Payton has an opportunity to show up his former club. On the other side, the Saints have an opportunity to beat the guy who played a role in putting them in cap space hell for years.

Several members of those Payton teams are still in New Orleans, so Payton should have the upper hand against his former team. However, the Saints undoubtedly have the biggest stars between these teams. If they can pull off the win against Payton, they'll show their former coach that he never should have abandoned them.

4) Week 7, Kansas City Chiefs at San Francisco 49ers

This will not be a primetime game, but it is still a Super Bowl rematch. How much better can a regular season matchup get?

The Kansas City Chiefs are known for starting the season slow, but Week 7 is right about when the team starts to figure things out and go on a hot streak. There wouldn't be a better time for the Chiefs to put all the pieces together than against a team that wants nothing more than to shove them into the ground. The 49ers will obviously throw everything they have at the Chiefs. You can imagine that Brock Purdy, Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, and every 49er that struggled in the Super Bowl will want to have the biggest games of their careers to prove that should they meet in the Super Bowl again, the 49ers have what it takes to hoist the Lombardi.

3) Week 1, Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs (TNF)

Is it a bit of a cop out to jot the season's opening game on a list like this? Perhaps, but you can't deny that a matchup between the last two league MVPs, in primetime, during the first week when emotions are running rampant, in a rematch of last year's AFC Championship, isn't a game to watch.

Not to mention, the Ravens added a shiny new toy in Derrick Henry this offseason, so they could be even more dangerous, but it will be interesting to see how the Ravens decide to use him in the first game of the season. Will he be a bellcow? Will he take some of the rushing load off of Lamar Jackson? Will the Ravens try to limit his carries to ensure he's fresh for the entire season? Then, there's the Chiefs, who added two speedsters in Marquise Brown and Xavier Worthy this offseason. How will they be used? Those questions are just icing on the cake for what should be a can't-miss game to kick off the season.

2) Week 12, Baltimore Ravens at Los Angeles Chargers (MNF)

Yes, it's another Ravens game. Games involving the team with the best record in football tend to be a little more exciting. Still, this one should be particularly interesting. Not only is it happening later in the season, right about when teams determine whether or not they are contending for the playoffs, but this is also a game between John Harbaugh and Jim Harbaugh.

The younger sibling, John, is 2-0 in his career against Jim, including a win in Super Bowl 47. The eldest brother needs to find a way to get a win in this family rivalry, but he'll have his work cut out for him as the Ravens will be competing for a division title. Baltimore also has a much better roster overall. There's no doubt that Jim will pull out all the stops to get the win though.

1) Week 17, Detroit Lions at San Francisco 49ers (MNF)

YES! This is what the people want!

Many fans thought the Lions were going to represent the NFC in last year's Super Bowl. They were up big in the NFC Championship Game, but the 49ers clawed their way back and earned the victory. Now, these two teams will meet up once again, in primetime, at the very end of the season in what could very well determine which teams gets a bye in the first-round of the playoffs. It's the last Monday Night Football game of the season as well. Everything is just lining up perfectly for this to be an absolute classic.
