Some toughies on there to be sure, but on the whole, it seems a bit easier than the 2010 schedule.

As crazy as it sounds, that could easily be a 9-7 schedule if we assume a 3-3 division record.

The return of Colt McCoy to Texas will be an interesting storyline.

If this team stays healthy and finds itself with a coaching staff who are not predominantly morons I can see the team winning up to six home games. They should win at least half of their road games.

Wow, I must be in a good mood or something.

Broncos, Panthers, Browns, Bills, and Bengals.... That's our win total so far this year. Head coaching candidates outta be salivating at that.

AFC West/NFC East this year vs AFC North/NFC South in 2011 ? Does next year really appear to be easier ?

It's easier because we get the 4th place teams from the other two divisions instead of the 2nd place teams. (That would be Bills and Broncos this year)

OK that does help.

The schedule will be what it will be. We just need to find a better way to deal with injuries than we have this year; whether by better depth, or better conditioning, or whatever. The better teams find a way to get it done, so should we.
