Taking into account some recent history:






1. @BUF
2. @BAL
3. @NYJ
4. ARI
5. NE
6. SF
 
1. NE
2. BAL
3. @BUF

5. ARI
6. SF

Which is unfortunate, because those NFCW games are the least important. :(

Not sure how you can have New England at #5? It's the Patriots. Not only are the Patriots the single team on that list with a winning record, but it's the Patriots. Did you see Brady on Sunday? Hooo boy.
 
1. @Baltimore
2. @Buffalo
3. NE Cheaters
4. Arizona
5. @Jests
6. San Fran

Miami has played NE real well at home the last 3 years and it might not matter for the pats so players might rest. Going into Baltimore and Buffalo to play those tough teams will be rough. LOL @ Jests

I think he's betting on Brady and their starters not playing which I would NOT bet on

Even if they just sit Gronk, which is a very good possibility that would be huge for us.

Since trading Collins that defense is really lacking their play maker and cover linebacker. We should be able to put points up, last year once Bellichek saw Vernon and Suh hitting Brady, bellichek scaled that playbook back real quick. I think that's a very winnable game.

Baltimore worries me a lot, and so do the jets and buff at home. We all remember the last time we had a shot at playoffs how tannehill played on the road against them.
 
The silver lining on the Buffalo and Jet games is that they will both be out of the playoff hunt by the time we play them.

That's exactly what I was thinking. More because of the way we've played them- T-Hill and team always seems to play well, it's at home, and I think this team is a little different now. We've also played them well on road under Tannehill for the most part. I could also rank that game 3 or 4 with not much issue.

Now if the Division title is on the line, I'd move that to #2

This is the right order.. I mean damn, im optimistic too and we beat them at home last year, BUT they are just a well oiled machine

I would have to say
1. NE..I know we have some decent recent history..but Brady and BB with a healthy Gronk and the speedy slot guys..tough matchup defensively, not even mentioning a tough running Blount. Their defense is suspect, but I lack the confidence of us stopping them enough times.
2. @ Bills weather, their house really tough environment, stout d, and weapons on offense including an athletic QB that if we don't play sound disciplined defense can cause chaos.
3. @ Ravens stout run defense and at their house.
4. Cards....good d and playmaker in the backfield
5. @ jets...good d and streaky QB, hopefully catch Fitz on a bad streak lol
6. Niners...awful defense, BUT Colin seems to be getting better and may put up a few points, just not good enough to overcome such a crappy d

They already are out of the playoff hunt. So is San Fran. Arizona could be as well. NE will also have locked up the East by then as usual. The only team with something to play for besides pride may be Baltimore.
 
If NE has a shot at the #1 seed, BB won't go soft like last year when it bit them.

1. NE
2. Buffalo
3. Baltimore
4. NYJ

NE may very well be playing for homefield advantage in the playoffs. We all know the Dolphins spoiled that for them last year. That is the toughest game on the schedule followed by @Baltimore.
 
Baltimore - bad bad matchup, but Miami has won some supposedly bad match ups this year
Buffalo - Where good seasons go to die. Buffalo will be fired up and still in the hunt
New England - Toss-up depending on records and who sits or plays
Jets - Trap game against rival with nothing to lose.
Arizona - Should be a win if they don't want the season to unravel prematurely
San Fran - Just get it in the win column, don't care how
 
the truth is we could lose 5 out of 6 of those games because of our o line situation

anyways I'd rank at buf and at balt the toughest followed by new England just because we are getting them at home and usually split and this team is much better coached than any we have had in the past on both sides of the ball

zonas d line could beat us the jets front is murderous and that's a national night game...so all eyes on us...

the only real cup cake is this sunday provided we play up to our standards

dont kid yourselves...buffalo would like nothing more than to put a dagger in our season
