2016 NFL strength of schedule

I think Chip Kelly would tell you it doesn't matter. .. he would be correct.

Looks about right to me. I think we'll drop one to the giants and not sure we can beat the bengals.

Man, those are the 2 games I struggled with, I usually just make the division games a split but since we've pretty much owned the Giants of late I gave us the sweep. The Bengals game will be tough but we're at home and I don't have much faith in their qb.

wow you have them winning all home games in 14 they only won four home games won all road games they don't play well at home awful early to be predicting 12 and 4 records.

Good news.

On a scale of 1-32 What is our level of strength as a team?

 

[rockj7]

I don't think that it's meaningless, if I look at the Panthers 2015 schedule before the season I only see 4 games that they most likely won't win. The Packers, Colts, @ Seattle, and @ the Cowboys, they had the NFC South (6 wins predicted but actually 5), the NFC East (3 wins predicted but actually 4), and the AFC South (predicted 3 but actually 4).

Let's take the Cowboys team of 2014 and add some high draft picks with some free agents that can upgradet and look at the 2016 schedule. When I look at the schedule I look at 2 things, how many great to elite passing teams we play against and how many bad weather games we may get. We have the potential to have some bad weather games but the Vikings will be in their dome next year so I hope we play them late and one of the others early. I don't care what the weather is when we play the Browns we should beat them, I hope we play the division teams on the road first and at home later but at the Steelers and the Packers is going to be tough. With that being said I can see the season playing out this way.

I'm willing to bet we win those 4 games you have us losing ( if healthy) and lose 4 games you have us winning If I learned one thing its you can't predict our Cowboys from week to week.

 

[cowboyblue22]

we won four games last season so our level of strength is not very high.

On a scale of 1-32 What is our level of strength as a team?

Way too early to say.

The reason why the strength of schedule is so low is because the division as a whole was bad and their record is double when calculating it.

Outside of the division, I dont think it is that easy as most people think.

The 4-12 got us SF and TB as the 2 sos games.
This whole SOS is sort of meaningless, but we dont play many playoff teams from last year.
You never know who will improve or get worse.

I imagine many teams fans looked at Carolina on their schedule last year and penciled in a win for their team !
