2016 Home & Away schedule

I like the way the schedule lays out. Yes 3 out of 4 to start out on the road is tough, but it's a lot more manageable this year. Last year 2 of the first 3 road games were out west, this year the farthest we have to travel is to Green Bay (In the 1st 4 games).

I like the idea of playing Indy the 1st game. Luck missed a whole lot of last year, hopefully he still has some gameday rust.

1st Quarter - 3-1 would be ideal. 2-2 acceptable
2nd Quarter - 3-1 should be the goal
3rd Quarter - 3-1 should be the goal
4th Quarter - 2-2 Should be the goal

I think 11-5 is a realistic goal with this schedule. 10-6 and playoffs would be a success. 9-7 or worse is a failure. 12-4 or better would be great.
 
I think they are going to have to win 12 games to make the playoffs this year, so 1 of the first 4 will not cut it in my book
 
10 wins should get you in on like 80% of nfl history. No way they'll need 12.
 
But if they don't win a playoff game it doesn't matter anyway.

The entire NFC North has a SOS that ranges from 25-32. We need to come in second in the North and it may take more than 10.

If youre not top 6....you don't belong in the playoffs. Sure some years it takes 11. Most 10. 12 would be nuts. I don't see SEA ARI MIN GB all getting to 11+ wins.

should be a fun list of excuses the homers come up with this year.

I'm thinking the NFC North has four, .500+ teams this year.

If that happens I'm seeing a bunch of 8-8, 9-7. Which would mean win the division because a WC won't come from the north. If all teams finish .500 or above I don't see 2 or more 10 win teams.

With that being said, I don't see 4 .500 or better teams. When is the last time it's happened in the NFC North?
 
I love this schedule but east, rams, south and saints are still good enough on any given sunday. Must do well in division and split gb and min if we only split bears. A 4th sweep in a row if bears is always nice
 
Wow this schedule doesn't look so easy anymore. Except the Bears and Jags, who are we favoured against? Skins and Giants maybe?
 
Vikquuens 3-0 with out ap, with back up qb's...lions same as always..complete garbage
