As Dan Snyder and the Washington Redskins continue to flounder, a Washington Post sports scribe came up with the idea of using a metric of projected point spread in the 2019 season to determine the difficulty of the Patriots Schedule.. all of this before TC, preseason, injuries and roster adjustments.. "Projected Preseason Point Spreads"??? WTF...
They need to do something to justify their existence and salaries..

Even though the NFL’s schedule makers jump through hoops to ensure parity, the Patriots again have the easiest schedule in the league. To determine this, we used the weekly preseason point spreads released by CG Technology in May to calculate each team’s projected record and its opponents’ records. Because New England’s division, the AFC East, is the worst division in the NFL and the AFC East’s teams play two other divisions expected to be near the bottom, the NFC East and AFC North, the average Patriots opponent is expected to win seven or eight games in 2019, not dissimilar to last year’s exercise or the results from 2017.
