If that's the case shoot me..... Can we please put an NFC West team instead. At least I can make the road trip to Seattle or San Fran. Depending on how it's set up maybe I'll go to Washington. I like the city and it's a game the Jets at least of of now should win. BTW we have a few bus trips on that schedule too... Philly, Baltimore and possibly DC.
I wish the Jacksonville game was an away game. My girlfriend is from Jacksonville and they are her 3rd favorite team (Jets and Falcons lead). Would have been nice to propose there on the big screen in our Jets gear.
It looks easier than this year. I see losses to the Eagles and Patriots, as well as one other loss. If we get a legitimate pass rusher, then I think we can overtake the Pats.
Things could potentially be so different by next year that there's no way to know whether that will be a difficult sched or not. This year our schedule was supposed to be tough as nails......
Hahah, I love a woman's outlook on football. I work with a girl who's from Washington as a Seahawks fan. Moved to jersey and likes the Giants, and admitted she secretly has a thing for the Raiders but doesn't tell anyone.
We played them in Oakland in 2008 (the last time we played the AFC West) and the reason we are going out there again in 2011 is because the NFL decided to separate our west coast trips. We had 4 west coast trips in 2008 including the NFC west games which the NFL also split up.
the most logical plan- -Home and away against division opponents (6 games). -Four teams from another division within the conference (4 games). -Four teams from another division from the other conference (4 games). -Four intraconference games based on prior year's standings (4 games). 1st and 2nd place teams vs the 1st and 2nd place teams in the two same-conference divisions the team is not scheduled to play that season. The 3rd and 4th place teams would be matched in the same way. What the heck, I'll list all of the years in which the Raiders played at the Jets/Titans. 1960 1961 1962 1963 1964 1965 1966 1967 1968 (postseason) 1969 1970 1977 1979 1989 1995 1996 1997 2005 2006
Ran the current algorithm based on data values as of 01/03/11 and the projection yields the following results (10,001 simulated 2011 seasons): home: 5-3 away: 4-4 record: 9-7 post-season chance: 38% data will be re-rolled in April
