Im only hoping the rumors of the Denver vs Pats game wont be in edminton I do think it will be the night game at Thanksgiving.. I think the leauge will make us open on the road against San Diego on Sunday night.. NBC will get the Indy game this yr, and Im going to think 3 out of 4 to be played on the road. to end the season..

Re: Predict the 2008

I really want to get that San Diego game over with quickly.

They are dirty.

Re: Predict the 2008

haha

there's only 2 games on that list that won't have a decent drama angle the media can go crazy with (chiefs + seattle)

 

[JoeSixPat]

I will be shocked if the NFL doesn't "accidentally" schedule the Patriots for a west coast trip following a Monday night game.

The NFL wants parity.

 

[Disco Volante]

Hey, if the NFL was smart, they'd be wanting another pursuit of perfection - led to record high ratings.

 

[patpatriot]

I didn't realize that the Pats are only playing 4 07 playoff teams. You could argue that Denver and Buffalo may be capable of making the jump but that still looks like a pretty easy schedule. I can easily see the pats going 12-4 or 13-3 next year.

or 16-0.....

you're right, but the Deion Branch vs. Pats will be a side note

I'm expecting that, or a west coast Monday night game followed by a Sunday game @ Indy......

ESPN will turn in into a full blown one hour Sports-Center segment with dramatic music and over exaggerated quotes.

Sept 7th NYJ 100 pm
Sept 14th at San Diego 830pm

We opened with the Jets and Chargers last year so I doubt we will open with those two again this year. Also the Chargers were a prime time game last year so I bet CBS will want that game this year.

 

[alvinnf]

I don't care who where or when, as long as we don't open up with the phins and the mayor of perfectville, Mercury "white lines" Morris does the coin toss!
God I hate that guy.....

AMEN to that; that guy is a self-righteous azz, AND wasn't that good of a football player to boot.

But looking at the Pats schedule, I say just skip the season, give them a bye and watch them win it all.

19-0 here the Pats come!

 

[BradfordPatsFan]

I'm really bored...here's my thought (assuming I have CBS/Fox doubleheader weekend's correct)

1 vs KC 9/7 Kraft wants to open at home at 1:00
2 vs NYJ 9/14 Sunday Nighter?
3 @OAK 9/21 If week 2 isn't a night game, this could be with all of Oakland's additions
4 vs DEN 9/28 CBS late "national" game at 4:15
5 @SEA 10/5 Kraft wants away prime time games, here's one
6 @MIA 10/12 Still plenty muggy down there...
7 BYE 10/19 Three VERY long road trips before this and plenty of brutal competition after...
8 @NYJ 10/27 MNF game where it all began...
9 vs BUF 11/2 Two divisional games in a row after the bye (really 3), before the Colts
10 @IND 11/9 Sweeps week, CBS wants this game at 4:15 and they get it
11 vs ARI 11/17 Fox early game that goes to most of the populace
12 vs PIT 11/23 I smell "flex scheduling"
13 @SD 11/30 Thanksgiving weekend, prime time game on Sunday night
14 vs MIA 12/7 It'll be cold!
15 @BUF 12/11 NFL-N Thursday night game
16 vs STL 12/20 Fox Saturday game
17 @SF 12/28 week 17 west coast game is the NFL's subtle way of hoping the Pats don't get a bye so they can stick them with a Saturday home playoff game the next week...
