That's a murderous schedule. The Texans have the Carr reneg to deal with and if it handled right they'll be dangerous, they always have two playoff teams in their division so that's four games under .500 and Tennessee was almost a playoff team. Playing them early would hurt more, because the South can beat on its own with the running that the Jags and Titans do.
Cleveland may not win a lot but Crennel does enforce a physical style the results of playing the browns usually show up the week after you play them.

All of those away games are against team who play their toughest at home. Florida teams can be twice as bad in weather there(they're used to it, others are not) and the NFC North always has weather/dome field considerations to think about.


I like it. More of a challenge for the team to face. It accelerates Kiffen's learning process and the Raiders will be better for it in time...

Jacksonville Jaguars

Miami Dolphins

San Diego Chargers

Other than the Colts, Bears, and a strong AFC West, I say we go into many games next year as the favorite. Thats right, i said that about a FORMERLY 2-14 team. At least we know this guy will do his homework and hopefully fire up the Offense
Its the 2nd hardest schedule in the NFL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tenessee, Janksonville and Miami are far from Easy ass. Every game will be a battle. I do think the Donks and Chiiefs are on the decline.

WTF are you smokin? We have no QB, we have no offense, and no matter who we pick we have no head coach. Did you even watch a game we played this past season?

3-13, at best.

Because we both sucked the past three years. Us more than them, they beat us twice. Can we shake this Browns curse ????
We get to play an AFC North team who finishes in the same position we did, dead last ! We also get to play an AFC East team, thus Miami this year, they finished last in their division.

After last year we Raider fans should expect nothing from this team until they show us something, especially interms of offence.

But remember, thanks to the Super Bowl hangover playing the Super Bowl participants the next season isn't such a bad thing. We can pretty much count on one of Indy or Chicago (I'm guessing Chicago) or maybe both flopping next year and that being a very winnable game.

That said, if Vegas were to set odds today for next season, the Raiders would be the favorite 2-3 times at most. They wouldn't be the favorite for a single road or division game.

As bad as we were this season if our D keeps us in games liek they did and we can actually score some TD`s we will be a hard team to deal with for anyone. That`s why they play the game.....

Who knows....for all we know now KC, SD and the Donkeys could be our easiest opponents next season.

I think it's a case of suggesting who are the most likely to be beatable on last seasons evidence and of that list Tennessee and Jax are two of the more likely beatable ones.
