Thanks to a schedule that has the AFC West playing the NFC West, we will have the 7th hardest schedule based on 2013 win-loss records. The other teams in the top 8 are either in the AFC or NFC West divisions, which both almost sent 3 teams to the playoffs (Cardinals barely missed the playoffs).

Obviously this means very little since a lot can change from now until them, but is interesting to note. Read more…

If you haven’t been around long, then you probably don’t know… I try to do one of these “offseason plans” at the end of each season. I usually do a mock free agency along with a mock draft based on the assumption that I get the guys I want in free agency.
