That is a rough road schedule for the Pats, but Denver's is tough too. Although somehow it all seems more manageable with Revis on board.

Man, if the Broncos had trouble with snap counts against Seattle with a NEUTRAL crowd's noise, imagine what will happen when they play the Seahawks IN Seattle!

You can add maybe Bengals or Chargers, but they got a pretty much easy schedule on the road.

What about the Jets? They've added Decker and are looking like... BWAHAHAHAHA, sorry, sorry, I couldn't do it. Couldn't get through the whole thing.

I hope we get the broncos in the cold again. And Talib will probably be injured by then.

I disagree.The Chiefs, Chargers, and Bengals are definitely not easy road games. Even the Rams could be tough while in their dome.

On paper, the Broncos have a much tougher schedule. Both the AFC and NFC West each have three teams that were either in the playoffs or in the hunt up until the last week (with all but one with 10 or more wins). Yeah, the Pats have to play the AFC West, but only once. The NFC North didn't have a team over .500 last year, but you would expect Green Bay to be good with the return of Rodgers.

All that said, talking strength of schedule is useless at this time of the year. Last year at this time, you would have thought teams like KC and Arizona were cupcake opponents and Atlanta and Minnesota would be tough teams to beat.

Unless he's playing an elite team (like the Saints or something), I usually won't bet against Manning in a dome.

Pats vs. Broncs are a TV dream. I expect the regular season game between the two will be the highest rated ever. A playoff matchup between the two may rival the ratings of some superbowls.

Watch, BB will bring back one of those UDFA smurfs he just cut to take Talib out

Rams have an excellent front 7. they will get to him. more than once.
