Home: Buffalo, Miami, New England, Baltimore, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Seattle, AFC South* (Colts) Away? Buffalo, Miami, New England, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Arizona, San Francisco, AFC West* (Chiefs probably) *teams in same place Strong schedule...
You can't really judge a schedule until you actually play the games and, it seems more and more in recent years, schedule strength is not as important as exactly when you play the team...( opening game, sandwich game, west coast trip, Thursday on road, to say nothing as playing a team when it is hot vs when it was not playing well. EG, Next year we have two Pacific time zone games...SF looks to be terrible, but the Jets never win out West
NFC West and AFC North are good divisions. Yes, things change year to year, but you know the Seahawks, Cardinals, Steelers, and Bengals will be solid to very strong barring a major QB injury. 10-6 next season will require a better season from us.
Unless Brady retires, doubtful. 10-6 never wins this division with Brady and Belicheck. 10-6 is usually good for a wildcard though, so it certainly would be an acceptable outcome for 2016.
Will be tough no matter what - Pats, evidently Bills since we got fucking swept, Bengals, Seahawks, Steelers, Cardinals, Chiefs Don't know who's coaching, could get better, could get worse - Phins(x2), Colts, Browns, or 49ers Who knows - Ravens, Rams Ultimately it doesn't matter right now, it's draft season.
Its not a hard schedule. Pittsburghs defense is terrible, the ravens and browns will still suck, cincy is never consistent. Arizona and Seattle will be good but but very winnable, St Louis is ok at best. Whats so damming about this schedule? Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
With only two division titles in the past 46 seasons, the schedule is the least of this team's concerns.
That schedule looks brutal. Could easily be a 5-11 season if the first 4/5 games are very difficult and the team mails it in.
Do we EVER beat the Steelers or Ravens? And Arizona or Seattle winnable? Those kind of defenses will destroy Fitz.
Yes weve beaten pitt the past 2 of 3 regular season games weve played them i believe. If not 2 in a row. Yea Seattle is overrated. Theyre not as good as people think. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
Only the last game...the overall history's not very pretty though. http://www.footballdb.com/teams/nfl/pittsburgh-steelers/teamvsteam?opp=22
Withe Bowles at the helm, I predict a 6-10 record. Sure, it's ludicrous to make specific predictions at this stage, but I haven't seen anything from Bowles (the coach that got swept by Rex Ryan in one season) that leads me to believe that we can beat a slate of highly competitive teams.
