Agreed but at least a later game would probably mean Mac starting for us and he'd have some time to gel with the starters. With Cam starting...ugh.I don't think we are winning no matter when it is played but I am happy it is early in the season so the game will be meaningful to us.
Could be. Has there been a more anticipated regular season game? I can't think of one. Pats-Colts week 1 2004 was probably up there? I was pretty amped up for the first Rams game in 2001 to see if we really were for real.Ever.
I'd love to see Mac take Cam's job in camp. That would tell us a lot about him.I know it’s unlikely but I wish Mac would start week 1, get a few games under his belt and send Brady and the Bucs packing week 4, that would be awesome.
The best comparison I can think of was after Brett Favre talked his way out of Green Bay, then a year later signed with Minnesota so that he could face the Packers twice a season. You not only had the similarity of a return home (Favre/Lambeau - Brady/Foxborough), on top of that you had Favre vs Rodgers. The hype for that 2009 game was off the charts.Most anticipated regular season game in years.
I don't know why the NFL would do that. They made it a major point ten years ago to keep the final two weeks of the season to intra-division games as much as possible for games with better playoff implications.It sounds like week 18 is the week for the "extra" games the NFL added, so I'm thinking cowboys for the last game of the season...
Unless cam gets hurt or looks like 2015 Manning, I don't think we'll see Jones for most of the season. Maybe we'll see him debut in the last couple games?Most anticipated regular season game in years.
Not too optimistic about our chances especially knowing week 4 is during the time when BB teams typically are figuring things out. Hopefully Mac is our starter by then.
But at least it's not last season - that would have been ugly.
I called Cowgirls at Bucs. It was the obvious answer. Bills while good dont have the pull that the league would want on the season opener imo.Surprised Bucs aren't opening vs Buffalo
This is what I think happened...Yeah afc is gonna be a dogfight again from the looks of it. Last year even with 7 spots 10 wins wouldnt get you in, maybe the same this year. Compared to years past where 8 and 9 win teams got in. Of last years playoff teams right now it seems only indy could really fall alot if wentz still sucks there. Bmore ten and pitt maybe a little but they should all be very much in it. So despite all our improvements playoffs is still far from a guarantee, though im hopeful.
The Packers janitor strikes again lol
I don't know why so many people think the NFL is throwing all the "extra" games onto the final week of the season. There is no way they do that since they are all inter-conference games. I think people are taking the phrase "17th game" too literally. I expect those "17th games" to be spread throughout the season (just not any during the final 2 weeks).It sounds like week 18 is the week for the "extra" games the NFL added, so I'm thinking cowboys for the last game of the season...

There's no reason that has to change; just put the 'extra' game anywhere else in the schedule.
Other than the TB game that's not bad at all for the first half. 5 home games. The gauntlet will be week 8-13 leading into the bye with 4 of 6 on the road but it's still not too bad.I saw this on Facebook. A supposed leaked pats schedule...
