The NFL released its 2025 schedule on May 14, and there were plenty of quirks to tackle on this year's slate. The Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills dominate the marquee matchups, while the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles play on nearly every day of the week.

The Vikings and Broncos have each played on Christmas a total of four times. Minnesota is 1–3 in those games and Denver is 2–2. Neither of the two played well during their last Christmas appearance, with the Vikings losing to the Saints 52–33 in 2020 and the Broncos getting crushed by the Rams 51–14 in 2022.

In recent years, the NFL has expanded the Thanksgiving slate, adding a third game, and just as recently as 2020, Christmas Day games have become a staple. The two holidays will feature six more games this season, so here they are, ranked from No. 6 to No. 1.
