Toughest schedule in NFL this year

[boogiewithstu2007]

1. @Rams
2. @Packers
3. Bears
4. Lions
5. @ Bengals
6. Panthers
7. @49rs
8. @ Cowboy's
9. Cards
10. 49rs
11. Steelers
12.@ Vikings
13.@ Ravens
14. Browns
15. Rams
16.@Cards

If this is not the toughest schedule in the NFL it's dam near the toughest... Bye is after week 8 ... We play 9 playoff teams from last year... Counting the Cards twice ..

We have the 4th hardest schedule in the league by SoS. Pittsburgh has the toughest schedule.

Of course I don't believe that the AFC North is as good as their record indicated last year as I think playing the AFC and NFC South propped up their record somewhat.

Hard to judge how hard it will actually be, because things change. Already the Packers lost J. Nelson and the Cowboys their best CB. More to follow I'm sure.

I said it in a previous thread but the only team that scares me (and now a little less) are the Packers. Tough away game that could have H.F.A. implications for the playoffs. I'm sure we'll lose a couple/few road games this season but quite frankly, I am just not too worried about the schedule. Every team is beatable.

Edit: Gotta give respect to the Cowboys but we owe them this season. I was at the game last season and it stung a little.

4th ... ok, I knew it had to be somewhere near the top...

No doubt... Teams strength definitely hinge on staying healthy ... As the season roll's on that's huge...

I'm not overly concerned about that schedule. The NFCW as a whole should be easier this year (mainly because of the dumpster fire that is SF). And our main competition for the #1 seed, GB and Dallas, each have already lost key cogs for the year.

We just gotta win week 2 in GB. If that happens, we'll be in the driver's seat.

Can't look past the Rams though, they always seem to play us tough... There pass rush is VERY good and our O-line is a work in progress... That game is no gimme by any means...

Agreed. Such a scary week 1 opponent, playing in St. Louis!

I know man, every game is just a grind out with those guy's... There just a tough match-up, it's like that sometimes when teams just match-up a certain way ...

and this year they have added secrecy with Foles being new and how they may role out their running game to start the year. Should be a game that is much too close for comfort

First time in a while that we don't close out the year against the Rams. Tough schedule indeed, but this team is built for the long haul.

Rams are always tough, especially in the dome, but if Russ can pull out another performance like the one he had in St. Louis last year I like their chances. That, and fucking watch out for trick plays on special teams.

Amen on the trick plays. I damn tired of seeing them work against the Seahawks.

That fake punt return was a thing of beauty though. I wasn't even mad, just an amazing play design there.

It was a master piece, but damn it, I don't like seeing it work against the Seahawks.

The toughest schedule belongs to the Browns or the Jags because every week they're playing a superior opponent.

Ours is the easiest. We're better than every team on it.

I think the Dolphins have one of the toughest schedules......

I would agree with that... They have some tough stretches in the middle of the season...
