our opponents for next year

[Growl]

remember that last time we played the Browns and lost?

Yeah that still irritates me.

[MtnProwler]

This is an ideal schedule. I would watch out for ATL, GB, NO, and Cincy away and Seattle, Detriot, and Pitt at home. I don't think we go any lower than 9-7, realistically we probably steal two of these seven and finish 11-5, make the playoffs, but this time do better in the post season.

That's a tough schedule. The Steelers and Falcons will be back for sure. Not a lot of gimmes with that group.

[Jump Zone]

It is too way to early to say that the schedule is hard or easy. One thing that may help us is that we will have 5 games against coaches in first season with a new team (Tampa Bay-2, Detroit, Minnesota, & Cleveland.)

[Chaos]

Packers and Vikings on road, hopes it not in December or even late November.

 

Truth.  Isn't Minnesota playing outdoors next season while they wait for their new stadium?

[camtheone]

12-4 , Break the cycle of non back to back champs in the NFCS.  1st round bye once again.

 

We will have a MNF game for sure.  Either against New Orleans or Seattle.  SNF against Chicago or Pitt.

 

Ok here is what I think about the games:

 

HOME: 

 

Tampa Win (hopefully we play them early so they are still getting use to they're new scheme)

Saints  Win

Atlanta Win

Cleveland Win (hopefully we get them early too, they could be dangerous mid season)

Chicago Win (we will need our secondary to step up, hopefully we have one or two new names in the secondary)

​Detroit  Lose (this one is a toss up for me)

Seattle  Win (We finally get this one.  Our new WR comes up big)

Pittsburgh Win ( It will be almost an away game, but for the players its a home game as far s comfort)

 

AWAY  

 

Atlanta  Win (our def just owns them I believe.  They will be a lot better this year of course, but they will be on the outs.   They missed their window.  Just think if Cam                         had White and Julio and Gonzales)

Tampa  Win  

Saints  Lose

Green Bay Lose  (very close, Rodgers is one of the best in the league right now)

Philadelphia Win

Vikings  Win  (remember this game is outside.  Maybe we'll get the game early in the year, but those guys aren't use to playing outside in the cold either)

Cincy   Lose

Baltimore Win

[Squirrel]

No west coast trips.

[KJ89]

Ugh I wanted san fran

We'll get them in the playoffs.

[Jangler]

I love all the predictions...lol

 

who said we would go 12-4 this year?

 

 

 

A few weeks back when this was posted, didn't then know about the Seattle and Philly games. I wanted Cleveland to be the home opener, now I want the Lions first. Most likely won't have the Steelers first since we play them last in the pre-season.

[Jangler]

Truth.  Isn't Minnesota playing outdoors next season while they wait for their new stadium?

 

yep

[KJ89]

who said we would go 12-4 this year?

I said we'd go 16-0. I was only 4 off.

[rayzor]

i think we can go undefeated at home.

 

on the road i see only 3-4 losses. 1 or 2 division losses, one between ravens and bengals (tho probably bengals) and one wtf type loss against a bad team (probably after a bye).

 

i think we get through next season as good or better record-wise and with at least one playoff win.

[CarolinaCoolin]

11-5
