Six games against playoff teams, not including their division. That's kinda brutal.
Meanwhile, NE gets to try another run at 16-0 with 6 free wins from their division.

And let's not forget the Bengals game, which in itself should be a bloodbath.

That's true, but they got as close to a sure-fire killer of a schedule as you can get.

According to ESPN
Steelers have the hardest schedule in NFL
Pats have the easiest
I think Colts came in with second hardest schedule.

Could see them splitting with Jax, losing to SD, NE and maybe Tennessee.
But Steelers' schedule is hardest by far. That middle is freakin' brutal.

The concourse has me bored to tears over the last couple days. All hail schedule day.
if you don't think discussing the advantages and drawbacks of dancing with your mom at your wedding is interesting, then i really can't help you.

They've got 3 Sunday night games (depending on flex), and MNF really isn't where it's at anymore.

Isn't Sunday Night the bigger game now, anyway?

SNF is the bigger game, because not everyone in the country receives MNF. Which is either a blessing or a miracle, because no one should be forced to listen to Tony Kornholio call a deep pass while wondering if Lindsey Lohan's watching.

Excuse me, but I am wondering how come nobody has made mention of this in the Dallas schedule:
Nov. 19 at Washington Redskins 8:15 p.m.
Nov. 23 San Francisco 49ers 1 p.m.
Nov. 27 (Thurs.) Seattle Seahawks 4:15 p.m.
Is this a typo or legit?
Three games in eight days? If so, I am doing a little dance in front of my computer.

That must be a typo. There is no way that they could give them 3 games over the course of a week and one day.
I am warming up to the idea of a Thanksgiving night game. My family usually has thanks dinner around 4:00, so I should have no issues.
For those of you who eat later, well, sorry. I am wondering what the tailgate scene will be like that day.
IF DGB makes it up, I'm sure that a Turkey-fry is in order, maybe Talon could make spicy turkey dip? Or, is it more likely that tickets get sold to the great unwashed that game...could be interesting.

Cowboys' site has the 16th, as well.
Second year in a row with three games in 12 days.

Cowboys always have the Thanksgiving game, thus always have "3 games in 12 days." It is an advantage for them because they are always home and their opponent has to travel in a short week. I prefer to see it as "Dallas gets a 10 day rest from 11/27 to 12/7.
F Dallas.
F Dallas.

Philly goes 11-5
Losses to Cowboys, Bears, Seahawks, Bengals, Steelers.
I also predict 9 home games this season as Philly will be in the race at the end and 40,000 Philly Fans will take advantage of Skins Fan generousity and fill FEDEX Field with about 12,000 empty seats.
