Patriots opponents for 2013 - New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston

Looks tough.

So either San Diego or Denver from AFC West and @Houston from AFC South.
Tougher schedule than this year.

The Saints are Steelers are tough but both are home games.

Carolina, Atlanta, Tampa Bay could be competitive but shouldn't be bad.

I don't see any tough road games other than Baltimore. Perhaps the Texans if they are the AFC South opponent.

I'm trying to remember my time zones; it looks like every game is in the eastern time zone. The only exception would be the TBD AFC South, which could be/is likely to be Houston.


For what it's worth last year the AFC North was the league's best division with 37 wins. The NFC South was tied with the AFC East for third with 33 wins.

Over the last four years the NFC South has the league's best record, with 142 wins. The AFC East is next with 139 and the AFC North is 3rd with 134.

I think this year schedule look tougher, IMO!

Looks tough on paper, but that's a loooong ways away.

This year looks much easier on paper, sure, but you never know how things play out. It depends heavily on how the rest of the AFCE is, of course, since they make up almost 40% of the schedule.

And with Welker on the Jets......we're dooooooooomed

 

[BlueThunder]

The Jets won't have money to sign Wes. They'll have enough trouble signing their own FA's they want to keep.

A lot will change between now and then.

If we were looking at the 2012 opponents before the 2011 season even began we would have thought that San Fran would be a cakewalk.

There's a whole season to see how the current teams look mixed in with another offseason of player movement. Way too early to really tell.

Barring finishing in the same slot in the division (very unlikely given that Indy will win <6 games), it will be the first time we will not play Indianapolis in seemingly forever.

People are slipping. I can't believe this hasn't been done yet...

It's weird not seeing the Colts in there
