Default Reiss peek at 2013 foes

New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston

No Colts (unless the sweep Texans as part of a Houston collapse that starts tomorrow night), but yet another Manning-Brady game, in Foxborough.

Quote:
1. With the Patriots and Broncos both clinching division titles last weekend, it ensures another chapter of the Tom Brady/Peyton Manning rivalry next season, as the Broncos will visit Gillette Stadium. The only other piece to fill out for the Patriots' 2013 opponents is a road trip to face the AFC South first-place finisher, which is likely to be the Texans.

2. Patriots' 2013 opponents at home: Browns, Steelers, Saints, Buccaneers, Broncos, Bills, Dolphins, Jets.

3. Patriots' 2013 opponents on the road: Ravens, Bengals, Falcons, Panthers, AFC South champ (probably Texans), Bills, Dolphins, Jets.
Not a cakewalk, but the Pats are used to playing first-place schedules. (And yes, I know, big stretch is coming up for this season ... but we as fans do get to look ahead a bit! )

Kind of early for this, but does anyone want to bet which part of the season the Broncos @ Pats game will be played next year? I'll be shocked if they force P6 to play here in bad weather.

And shouldn't the Jets be listed as something other than opponents. Entertainers maybe?

So we basically get 6 games against the AFC East, 2 games against divsion champs in the AFC West (Broncos) and AFC South (most likely Texans), and 4 games each against the AFC North and NFC South.

Not a cakewalk, but manageable. Road games at Houston, Baltimore and Atlanta look fairly tough right now, but it's a long way off.

Definitely early but with the schedule largely pre-determined (division foes, rotating division foes from opposite conference) and teams clinching early, there it is. Yeah, pretty sure you can pencil in Broncs-Pats for a Sunday night in November.

Assuming Brady keeps the TD streak going for the rest of this year, the game against the Saints will most likely be scheduled for the week he can break it.

Yup. And if it happens, I'm pretty sure the Pats won't stop the game for a big ceremony.

Somebody better call Bob Ryan. The NFL is up to their shenanigans fixing schedules again?

Now that Peyton plays in denver does it really matter? He's gonna end up playing in bad weather anyways. I think midseason is the best time for them to play anyways.

Why do the Pats have to play in Baltimore on consecutive seasons? Ithought they alternated home and away?
