Seeing the times and dates for all of the games between contenders and potential Super Bowl favorites is a reminder that the start of the season is only a few months away.

There is a reason to watch every game for some, especially those folks who are heavily invested in fantasy football, but there are 10 games on the slate that rise to the top of the list to rate as must-watch affairs. Let’s break them down, beginning with a key divisional showdown in the AFC South.

The 10 best games on the 2021 NFL schedule

10. Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts

These two teams are the unquestioned kings of the AFC South, making this showdown in Indy extremely important for the division. The Colts and Titans split their season series a year ago with each team winning on the other’s home field.

There is also a new wild card in the division thanks to Indianapolis’ trade for Carson Wentz, who the Colts are hoping can become the long-term answer under center. Whoever wins this game should have a big leg up in the division and these games have been sneaky good over the years, making Titans-Colts a must-watch affair in 2021.
