One of the most awaited teams schedules -- the Steelers -- has been leaked. And so the appropriate bookend would be one of the least awaited.

We give you the Lions 2010 schedule, from the Detroit News.

Sept. 12, at Chicago; Sept. 19, Philadelphia; Sept. 26, at Minnesota; Oct. 3, at Green Bay; Oct. 10; St. Louis, Oct. 17, at N.Y. Giants; Oct. 31, Washington; Nov. 7, N.Y. Jets; Nov. 14, at Buffalo; Nov. 21, at Dallas; Nov. 25, New England; Dec. 5, Chicago; Dec. 12, Green Bay; Dec. 19, at Tampa Bay; Dec. 26, at Miami; Jan. 2, Minnesota.

As expected, the Lions host the Patriots on Thanksgiving.

Dallas finally has an opponent on Thanksgiving the rest of the country can get excited about.

The Cowboys will host the Saints this year on November 25, according to WDSU in New Orleans. Dallas faced Seattle and Oakland on Thanksgiving the last two years.

The Cowboys handed the Saints their first loss last season in a game on NFL Network.

As Florio points out over IM -- while he's on the radio -- this news is a sign that the NFL has listed to criticism about their Thanksgiving schedule. In the past, our theory is that a "captive audience" would give the league big numbers no matter what the matchup was.

WDSU also revealed the Saints will play nationally televised road games in San Francisco September 20and Atlanta on December 27.

The leaks continue: Panthers open Giants Stadium Sept. 12 (1 p.m.). Wonder if they'll run the way they did when they closed the old place?

I am seeing that the Saints play the Buc in Week 17.

So that means we play the Falcons in week 17!

Woohoo!
