Could someone post next year's schedule? It looks brutal, so

Realistically with this schedule this year, for a team that will be in transition 8-8 would be tremendous IMHO. Our defense will probably still be in flux and our offense will be learning a new system. Even if it is relatively similar to what the Pats and Cards ran, there will still be a learning curve with this team that will result in some losses. To expect anything beyond 8-8 is ridiculous. Not that I don't believe in Pioli and what he is bringing to Arrowhead, but that the thought we'd pull a Miami/Baltimore turnaround is somewhat unrealistic.

The good news is that I think the Chargers are on the downhill slide and will have to rebuild soon, Denver is in complete disarray and I doubt their FA binge will land them in the playoffs, and Oakland is, well they're the Faiders; and Al Davis is still alive. Won't worry too much about them. We can win some games even if it is only in our own division.
