Man.... with any decent QB play and a little luck this is a 12-win schedule. Could easily be a 7-win schedule if QB situation is another dumpster file and key injuries occur.
TNF on the road Week 2 is a tough ask, but bodies are fresher earlier in the season, so maybe not so bad. Bengals typically haven't mailed it in quite that early though. Extended break for the Pats roadie in Week 3. I'd prefer playing the Patriots in September than later in the season, although that didn't really work out last year.
The Texans will need to take advantage of the three straight home games before the bye. The back-to-back short week on the road between the Ravens on MNF followed by @ Tennessee will be rough. Would not be happy if there's much on the line for a road game at Indy in Week 17 either.
