i would imagine the NFL ppl made SURE not to have this game, cuz then the "fluke bowl" would forever have its name
Pre-season week 4 at the Meadowlands.
Also...there is no game against the Giants until 2011, in New England, and 2015 in the Meadowlands again.
That stuff is automatically generated. You play a division in the other conference every 4 years. So there was no conspiracy not to have a rematch thsi year.
also, i thought there were about 2 games a year for every team that were random.....and our random game always seems to be the Colts
Those aren't random games either. They are against the 2 AFC division teams we aren't slated to play that finished in the same position that the Pats did in their division (ie. 1st place plays 1st place, 2nd plays 2nd, etc.)

I'm curious as to why all the west coast games are on the road for us and Jets and at home for the other division teams.
Even with regular sized font, I realize the schedule is made out in advance.
Yet, even in advance, it seems that they could have tried to split the home and away games for each team playing west coast teams.
Perhaps we would have found a reason it was unavoidable had the thread not been closed.
For anyone that is extremely upset, I realize the formula evens out eventually, but why not split them up every year for bi-coastal division matchups.
Anyone?

Fluke bowl? More like Belichick and Brady were total moron dumbass losers bowl.
It was probably random. We play the AFC West every 3 years. We play the NFC West every 4 years.
The ordering is not random; in fact, it's very simple. Alphabetize the four teams in a division--e.g., Arizona, S(ain)t Louis, San Francisco, Seattle; Denver, Kansas City, Oakland, San Diego. Split them into pairs, call the first pair A and the second pair B. A team will always play both the "A" teams in another division on the road, and both "B" teams at home, or vice versa; the next time the divisions meet, they'll reverse it (guaranteeing a home-and-home series at least every six years in conference, and eight years between conferences). Unfortunately, it just so happens that the "B" teams in both divisions are on the coast, and the "A" teams are both inland.
So each AFC East team has to play both SD and OAK on the road once every six years, and has to play both SEA and SF on the road once every eight years--so the four West Coast trips happen once every 24 years. The good news is that the JEST are in the same boat as the Pats. The better news is that, assuming the current rotation continues unchanged, it won't happen again until 2032.
I agree. Neither one blocked Justin Tuck very well.Fluke bowl? More like Belichick and Brady were total moron dumbass losers bowl.
