NFL regular season schedule to be released April 23rd

Colts playing the Patriots and Broncos will be prime time for certain, at Lucas Oil Stadium, both of them.

 

Both those games are must wins for AFC HFA that the Colts need, IMO.

 

Colts vs Saints might be another prime time game as well.

 

Then, throw in a Thursday night game at Texans with AJ returning to play there.

My prediction is the Saints will open next year on the road in Carolina or Tampa

 

 

We opened at home vs Atlanta in 2013 (and home in 2012), and away vs Atlanta in 2014, so I expect a road game, and with it being Carolina this time or Tampa.

Heard they are promoting 50th SB anniversary with SB rematches during the regular season. Seems they will hilight those games. Don't know how good that will do. Teams that played each other years ago in a SB might not be a good game now (thinking TB vs OAK...ughhh)....but if someone wants to look at possibilities from which divisons are playing it would be easy to see what matchups they will look to promote.

Are you kidding me? The Patriots on Monday Night? I get to see my team lose by 35 on national TV?

 

Plus, I'd prefer we get another team on MNF, seeing that I get Bills/Pats games on TV here regardless...

 

PS: The last time the Patriots and Bills faced off on Monday Night, I went into a depression and didn't talk to anyone for 24 hours...

The Saints schedule is a nightmare. 

 

 

We are not getting a bye week + 3 home games in a row again like last year.

 

We get to go to Houston after the bye week. This team has not won the week after a bye on the road since 2009, and I already was worried about Houston to start with since they have a defensive schedule that normally gives us problems, but after seeing this schedule, that's going to be a loss. 

 

Chalk up losing to Washington because we always lose to them anyway. Washington and St Louis are the two teams that always beat up on the Saints no matter what.

 

Don't worry Colts fans, you get us after Atlanta, which means you'll probably beat us down or win in a clutch close game. (Saints were 2-6 last year in close games) 

 

First 7 games of that N.O. schedule is so brutal. We are so screwed if we don't start out hot.

The Vikings will be in two such games. Week 6, they play the Chiefs at Minnesota. Week 10 they play the Raiders in Oakland. I am interested in seeing Teddy and Carr in the same game.

Yep....I'm thinking of getting tickets to the Saints game. I really wanted to go to the Denver game but I just can't justify paying that much for decent seats. I only get to go to a couple games maybe a year due to work and living farther away but the Pats/Colts and Broncos/Colts tickets are going for like 3 times the amount of the other games.

I hope you get to see a good game. The Jets at Colts game is one of these Super Bowl games (SB 3). You are sure to get a win there.

I have to check out the Giants schedule to see which game(s) I would like to attend with my friend, the Giants season ticket holder. Giants play the Vikings but at MN. Bummer. But he said he would never take me to a game against the Vikings because he could not watch me cheer for another team. Lol.

well for me it requires hotel and tickets for my wife and I don't go if I'm not sitting down close because to me to make it worth the trip etc that's what I enjoy. The Broncos and pats games are just crazy expensive which I expected but the saints aren't too bad so I think it should be a good game and I like the prices so I'll probably go that route. Besides maybe I won't be so emotional at that game lol.

    • will not have to spin a thing. Just gonna sit back and watch you guys hang on every decent play Richardson has and always wish there could be more. Does Vince young come to mind? Supper athletic, strong arm, not much of a QB.
    • The Colts, desperate for a long term solution at Quarterback, picked one in a miserable draft for qb,s. Should have went with another left tackle or defense. Should have spent thier money on Carr or Mayfield. this would have locked the position down for at least 5 or 6 years. By then maybe another prospect will come along or at least be in position to make a better decision. For gods sake, who thought it was a good idea to pick a player with so few tools and experience. He is not only a young rookie ,he is new to the position of quarterback in college much less the NFL. Yes he is gifted, he can throw the ball a mile. So could I at 22 years old but doing it in professional football no way.
    • Didn't you know SB or bust every single year... Lol. 
    • Cuz we've had such great QB play during that stretch.
    • I mean, may it take longer for AR to reach his full potential because of his age, rawness, and lack of experience….maybe yes maybe be no, but that’s for any qb.  There’s maybe one qb every few or so years that comes in and is ready to go.  Look at the past 5-10 drafts and you’ll see what I’m saying.  Even Pat Mahomes had to sit before he touched the field.  Trust me, it’s a short list.     NFL fans (and teams alike) have been spoiled with the thought of QBs coming in right away and getting into done when in reality that’s not the case.  ARs timeline/trajectory is going to be very similar to Josh Allen’s and tbh Allen didn’t start to really get it until Diggs came around.  A QBs development is dependent upon not just the qb himself, but the personnel, the coaches, the system.     Question, what would you have done in our situation?  Draft Levis?  I mean, I agree with you, I was one of the people on this board that wanted to do whatever we needed to get stroud, but it didn’t happen.  So We were either going to draft AR or Levis.  And if you didn’t want either one of them then you’re pretty much onboard with a full blown rebuild and waiting until next year because no other qb was worth drafting in the first round.  And to be real, AR would’ve been a top 3 QB in this past draft also.
