On the outset, it would appear that the worst is yet to come. Despite having played teams like Indianapolis (4-1) and Denver (4-2) the combined record of the teams we've played is 16-17. The combined record of our opponents from here on out is 29-26.
But consider our own record and it helps to show things a bit better. We're 5-1. Subtract that from the 16-17 record and it shows you the record of our opponents against teams other than us...which is 15-12.
But then you have to do the same for the Jets and Pats in the 29-26 record and you get 29-24.
So, overall, our opponents for the first 6 games are 15-12 (.555) against teams other than us, and our opponents for the last 10 games are 29-24 (.547) against teams other than us.
It ain't gonna get any easier from here on our fellas....with games in Green Bay (5-1), home against Oakland (4-1), and home against San Diego.
And worst yet, the game in Green Bay is most likely going to be started by Ray Lucas, not Jay Fiedler...barring some miracle. At least if that happens, then we get cream puff teams like the Jets and Ravens right after Green Bay...for Jay to get healthy and/or get back into rhythm.
