Anyone know 2009-10 schedule

[godef]

Not only do Indy and NE play every year, but they always schedule the game at the middle of the season....Week 9.....why is that?

This is 4 consecutive years Indy vs NE played in Week 9.

Whereas who a team play is predetermined, in what weeks and on what day & time is not. I could only begin to speculate if this trend is intended or not.
