Actually, it's a really, really odd start.
We start the season, at home, vs. the Raiders.
Then we sit around for 10 days waiting for the next game...
The next game kicks off 4 out of 5 games on the road.
AT Carolina
AT Pittsburgh
home vs. San Diego
AT Atlanta
AT Denver
That's 3 division winners, and 4 playoff teams, out of 5 games. Then we get the bye week and things soften up a bit in terms of travel.
But half of our road games are in our first 5 games. That is surprising. If we go at least 3-2 against that caliber of teams, I'll be satisfied. 4-1 is what I would bet, however, IF Tedy Bruschi is back next year.
