What do you see out there now that the NFL schedules have been released ? Who's got the smoothest path to the playoffs ?

NE

end of year home games, and they avoid the heat of Miami in the early season.

look at the warm weather teams that finish the year in NE

NE has a joke of the schedule. Only bad omen is that I think I read that each of the past 5 years the team with the easiest schedule didn't make the playoffs. I'd be shocked if they didn't though.

IMO it's not as much the teams they play, it's the WHEN they play em.

If it's a harsh and early winter in NE it will be a very easy finish for them the last 4-5 games.

if Miami has to go to NE at the very end of the year in the cold and snow, why wouldn't NE have to go to Miami in the HOT and HUMID Miami late summer?

Yes, I think that based on last year's results, there are quite a few easy games on the Patriots schedule. Of course sometimes the bad teams from the year before step up and become pretty good like San Francisco did last year.

Chicago Bears schedule is relatively easy starting out with indy gb and stlouis..not too bad

Have to agree on the Patriots schedule. While you never know, on the surface it looks ridiculously easy. On the hand, Giants look to have a brutal one - of course being a fan I may be biased.
