Speaking of the Pats, dont be surprised if they play the Jets in CBS's big game at noon. Remember, CBS cannot show a 3 o'clock west coast game due to the mens final at the US Open. This further supports the theory of us playing Oakland as since Oakland does not have one of those national games, they will have to play the early game on CBS, and since that is 10 a.m. local time, they will not play at home.
Good point about the Raiders, as they basically have to be on the road for game 1, although looking at their schedule many of their away games could be 1 o'clock. But since CBS's schedule will be full of 1pm games, I don't see the NFL wasting NE-Jets there when they could probably save it for a National game (especially since I think ESPN or NBC might grab the other game). But since we haven't opened with a divisional opponent in almost 10 years, we could very well be due.
