Another early thread I know...

Interesting regular season in 2016, we have the NFC West to play! Seattle in Gillette as well which should be good. We also have the AFC North so a competitive season for sure. Plus we'll have the AFC South winner at home and it looks like Denver AGAIN away....

Can anyone jot down who is on FA after this season? Who is likely to be gone?

Lets go for Derrick Henry in the draft as well!

Schedule for next season:

Home

Baltimore
Cincinnati
St. Louis
Seattle
AFC South Winner

Away
Cleveland
Pittsburgh
Arizona
San Francisco
AFC West Winner

I love the home schedule. It sucked this year.

Actually, Denver could lose the AFC west to the Chiefs, which means a return trip to Arrowhead and not Milehigh. With 2 games left to play Denver has the tougher schedule between the 2 (Cincy, San Diego).

Depending on the date, I may try and make the Pats/Seattle game at the Razor next year, it would probably be a good matchup for my first NFL game.

I may have a shot at getting to Arizona. The wife's sister and husband lives in that area. The husband has said he could get tickets if we want to make the trip out there.

Give me a holler if that's the case. I expect to be back in the state hopefully by mid-summer. Maybe we can hunt NEM down and Nutkick
 
Nice home schedule.

Planning to come out for a game in September again!

Kitchen was just released. It changes fast :)

I would say that Wendell, Blount and Boyce are gone. We don't know anything about Weddle or Hughes. The others all potentially have something to contribute.

Again? Other than your hometown, what's the longest you've stayed in one place?

LOL, yeah. These last few years were unfortunate necessities. Pretty sure I'll be in AZ for as long as my parents are around unless some unforeseen circumstances arise.

I was in Minnesota from 1999-2007. Second place would be Kentucky from 1992 to 1999.

Good man, thanks.

I'd like to see a major push to get Hicks back. He's young enough and could be a very good player for a few years to come.

Twice to the West Coast (3 if you count Denver, which I don't really), is rough. Maybe they'll get lucky and get the games back to back so they can stay out there.

They managed to do something like that last season didn't they? The big road trip going to Green Bay and then staying away and heading directly to San Diego. Hopefully they can do the same. The players really enjoyed it anyway, builds the team spirit to have a prolonged road trip like that. That San Diego game was like a home game as well, the Pats support was incredible.

I can almost guarantee the "completely random" NFL schedule machine will spit out West Coast-Miami-West Coast.

Especially given how outspoken and embracing the team was of the last back-to-back West Coast games before.

No way that happens. Ole Rog won't allow that.
 
Rog will have us playing at home to Seattle, then out to Frisco and then back to play the Jets and then out to Arizona.
