The Patriots just announced the schedule for the upcoming 2008 season, and New England will open their season at Gillette Stadium on September 7th against the Kansas City Chiefs. They'll play three Sunday night games (at San Diego, at Indianapolis, and at Seattle), a Thursday night game (vs. NY Jets), and one Monday night (vs Denver) game this season.
The team won't get much of a break this season, as they will play just three games before their bye week, while then having to finish out the remaining thirteen straight games, which includes three prime time games on the road.
