I don't usually do lunch but I'll take a Reuben with onion rings if you're buying. Once is enough though

I don't see the playoffs in your future.

I ain't mad at you. Or at the fact that if you actually could see that far. You'd be Elmer J Fudd mansion and a yacht rich and likely wouldn't be fiuckin around on the hoop.

And that includes two games in LA - good for any Skins fans in that area (unfortunately not me anymore).

Yeah, I'll be going to the Rams/Skins game for sure. With a various number of my knuckleheads and knotheads.

If it makes you feel better, I don't see the playoffs in my Saints future either.

It doesn't make me feel any worse.

Colts play the NFC West which is good news, bad news is they have the AFC North. Buffalo and Denver are their other opponents.

The bad news is the AFC North? Sounds like at least w wins to me. Add at least 2 more from THE NFCW get one of the interconference games and then all you gotta do us take care of the division and that's being pessimistic on the NFCW and AFCN games. No real reason Indy shouldn't go 5-3 in those. Looks like a 9 or 10 win schedule to me

Could be a very long year for you and the other 6 or 7 Falcon fans. Good luck.

Eh schedule this year included GB, OAK, KC, SEA, DEN. Won't be much different. 2 scrubs in the AFCE, Bears and 6 winnable division games. Go 3-3 on the others and should be 11 or 12 wins. Definitely better home games this year with Dallas, GB, Miami, Buffalo and Minnesota a . I'm planning on a few trips at least

Bet you felt the same way last year seeing Bucs, Chargers and Eagles...
Way too soon to start predicting we still have the draft, FA and pre season injuries...
Again good luck. I've always been a fan of Mattie Ice. Would be a shame if he goes out this way.

I said 10-6 last year preseason. Of course things can change but right now I'd probably say 11-5/12-4. You may lose a game you shouldn't but you'll probably win one you thought would be tough. Tampa is getting better and NO is always tough because of their offense. Tough to tell what's going on with Carolina. We shall see. Atlanta has drafted exceedingly well the last few years and with so many young guys I'd assume they will improve as well

The Pats schedule actually looks tough. They play the NFC South which shouldn't be easy at all especially if the Panthers get close to the team they were the last few seasons when they were winning the South. They also play the AFC West which is not an easy division to play with the improvement of Oakland. Also visit Pittsburgh

Last year looked tough in preseason as well. They had the 9th toughest 2016 SOS based on 2015 records. Don't forget, the Jets had gone 10-6, they played the AFC North which had 2 playoff teams (plus the Ravens always being a tough game), and the NFC West had a conference favorite in Arizona and a tough game against Seattle.

 

[soxfan1468927]

Based on 2016 record, here are the SOS rankings from toughest to easiest with opponent 2016 winning %:

1. Broncos: .578
2. Chiefs: .576
3. Chargers: .568
4. Raiders: .564
5. Bills: .561
6. Dolphins: .547
7. Redskins: .543
8. Giants: .535
8. Jets: .535
10. Cowboys: .531
10. Eagles: .531
12. Patriots: .527
13. Falcons: .521
14. Buccaneers: .518
15. Saints: .510
16. Panthers: .504
17. Rams: .482
18. Packers: .480
19. Bears: .479
20. 49ers: .475
21. Browns: .469
21. Lions: .469
23. Cardinals: .467
24. Ravens: .461
25. Texans: .455
25. Seahawks: .455
27. Steelers: .453
27. Vikings: .453
29. Bengals: .449
30. Jaguars: .439
30. Titans: .439
32. Colts: .424

I would say the most intriguing games for the Pats are home against the Falcons, Panthers, and Chiefs; and at Denver, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Tampa, and the Mexico City Raiders.

The NFC games are always intriguing since they only face each other every 4 years. Last time the Pats played in Tampa was 1985, plus facing Winston will be exciting.
