Who we play isn't the mysterious part of the schedule, it's how we are set-up to play the tougher teams coming off their bye-week/mini-bye week. Our schedule this year was very dubious. They crammed the 4 division games against the NYG and PHI in the first 9 weeks (hmmm..Hardy was to be out 10 weeks). We played NE coming out of their bye-week, Seattle coming off their mini-bye, Eagles off their bye, and then the kicker....coming off a Monday night road game, turning around on 6 days, to play the NFC's darlings at Lambeu coming off their 10-day break. Coincidence that every tough opponent we had to face was while we were at a disadvantage? If only the NFL had known that Carolina would have been so dominant, we might have been playing them coming out of a bye-week, too (BTW, Carolina played zero teams coming off a bye). [/tin foil]
