Is it me or the 2019 schedule looks brutal?

..with the exception of Jets & Dolphins, everyone else looks like a formidable challenge. According to some stats analysis, Dallas falls in the middle of things in terms of difficulty. Im hoping we can scrape 10 this year.

Pats along with Skins have the easiest. How does that even happen? SB winners should default to a difficult schedule. Prove yerself again.

Why fear?
If this team has what it takes, you want them taking out talent, not skating through to their inevitable end, once they hit a real team.
They don't make it?
They didn't deserve to make it.
They make it, after beating several of the good teams?

Should make you feel better going in, yes?

Cowboys have the #1 toughest schedule in the whole NFL.

Eagles have one of the easiest. So do the Patriots.

Thank you, Goodell!!!!

Oh wait, there are those who don't believe in conspiracies or that Goodell's office (those around him) don't have it in for Jerry and the Cowboys

Nevermind. There is no conspiracy. :huh:

How do you get that the patriots having an easy schedule is a conspiracy? Their own division is the worst in Football I don't see how you could conspire to have the jets, dolphins and Bills.

Exactly my point. Why hasn't a tougher team been replaced for either the Jets, Dolphins or Bills the past 20+ years? It's been smooth sailing for the Patriots to win their division and make the playoffs every year for the past 20+ years.

W e can't really call a schedule hard or soft until the season plays out IMO.

It's fun to guess though.

And who created the formula? Do you honestly believe a formula is thoroughly followed?

I don't know a ton about the NFL scheduling formula but I do know a lot about MLB and I would assume they follow a similar set of parameters to ensure as much parity as possible.

problem is the teams are set with the exception of 2 games so not much you can do about that
