Predict your NFL Team record this year

I'd like to meet the person that came up with the Patriots schedule up to this point. That has to be the easiest schedule in NFL history.

It’s probably the same person who came up with Alabama’s in the college football schedule.

Can't wait for LSU vs. Bama. That's can't miss TV.

Who is blaming the team? You play who you play. Nevertheless, it is the easiest schedule in NFL history.

Dolphins 21. Miami YMCA 36.
Jets 10 New York YMCA 21.

How many picks would Darnold throw in a YMCA game?

Me too! I think (hope) it’s finally time to save y’all from having to watch another National Champ with Bama.

Haha, you know Bama will still find their way in the CFP even with a loss to LSU. You should know better

I was thinking that as I typed that last post .

While I'll admit the Patriots have been the best team in the league during the Brady/Belichick stretch, it is a little annoying that the entire AFC always seems to be much worse than the NFC. The Pats path to the Super Bowl is always easier than other teams. They get to beat up on the JV AFC East teams all year to get home field advantage, then some 9-7 team comes to their place for the Divisional round, then they play the only good team in the league at home for the chance at the Super Bowl.

What are the other AFC teams doing? Once Manning retired, it's like the rest of the teams don't even try to get better. The Chiefs get a great QB and then don't bother to try to improve their defense?

This isn't to take anything away from them, Belichick is probably the best coach ever, but I'd bet if they were in the NFC the last 10-15 years they would have a few less titles. Having to play @Green Bay, @Seattle, @new Orleans, @Minnesota, @Dallas, @Philly every year in the playoffs would have led to some early exits that just don't have a possibility of happening in the AFC.

Depends on how fast my grandmother could get through the line. She says to make it fair she'll count 3 pink elephants before she rushes. So I'm saying 2.

Yeah but this is sort of cyclical. I would say for the first half of Brady's career, the AFC was definitely the tougher way to go. You had the Steelers, the Colts with Manning, the Ravens and Chargers were really solid at one point. Now, it seems like the power has shifted back over to the NFC.

There is no such thing as the Chargers being solid. Only the illusion of the Chargers being solid. Greatest moment in Chargers history. Scoring 16 points after it was 42-10.

Haha well they were 14-2 in 2006 under Marty S.

I'd love to share a meme about the Patriots, but alas, it is not dis-appropriate.

I'm totally deflated that you can't cheat just this once for the Pats.

I said the Broncos would go 6-10. This team is terrible and I don’t see how they’ll get 4 more wins this year! I don’t see 1 more win!!

Fangio was a terrible hire. He should have stayed as DC for the Bears.

I am Pats fan but you're totally right - they've had a very easy schedule.

Funny part is I live in FL - and dang Tampa Bay got really screwed with their schedule. They're so bad I have no idea why they deserved such a rotten schedule.

Just have to say that Belichick's time management last night in the 4th quarter with the declined penalties was hilarious. It also shows why coaching is just as important as good players. I mean sure it didn't matter for last night's game, but the fact that he can so easily out-coach someone else is crazy.

Bills are 6-1. Gotta play them twice.
Steelers was suppose to be a tough matchup. Ben went down.
Chiefs, Cowboys, Eagles, Browns, Ravens. That's far from the easiest schedule in NFL history. Just more excuses to use if they win the Super Bowl again.

They still have to beat 2 of the top 3 teams in the AFC as well as the best team in the NFC. God, the excuses people come up with year after year after year. It never ends.

"Their schedule is too easy."
"Brady gets all the calls."
"The NFL wants them to win."
"They play in a terrible division."
"The AFC isn't as good as the NFC."

The only good part of it all is how much fun the sports media and fans have listening to the excuses.

I was referring to their first 7 games and you are mentioning teams they haven't even played yet.

By the way, the Browns suck. Eagles aren't very good. Cowboys and Ravens are questionable.
