My fiancee dodged a huge bullet. Her friends are getting married in Pennsylvania on October 17th. I wasn't gonna go if the 18th was a home game and she was gonna be pissed. But, they are in Pittsburgh so I'm gonna lobby hard to go to that game.

112 home game attendance streak cannot be compromised!

Hell yeah.

Meh, I don't think the D's will be that bad. SEA and STL sure, but SF will have a drop off.

Pitt is in transition
Philly is a crap shoot on D
BAL, probably good.

The rest... meh.

The schedule is rather nice overall. I really like the bye week in the middle of the season, but would prefer a bit later. These week 4 and early season bye's can be brutal for a team.

I was listening to the radio as they said the teams and said "win, loss" as they read the schedule and came out with 11 wins. Assuming the team is healthy

Wouldn't be too worried

St Louis and Cleveland always find ways to disappoint their fans.
Pittsburgh is getting older and losing talent.
We get Cincinnati and Baltimore at home
Chicago is an awful defense, actually; and who knows what the mindset of that offense will be, especially in Week 2 adjusting to John Fox.

Detroit, quite honestly, is the only tough test of them all, provided they don't have a similar 2013 collapse.

Arizona is a good team. We will win enough games.

Good schedule for my individual purposes. I am going to Chicago, Detroit, and either BMore or Cincy out in Arizona. The only game I can't make that I wanted is the Clowns.

Worst tailgate schedule since the new stadium opened. Where are my late October, November, and early December Sunday afternoon games at home? Blah.

There are three games when it's HOT and then two games after Christmas when it isn't nearly as nice.

Pittsburgh, PA--Enemy territory!
Yeah, Pittsburgh's D is going to suck unless they hit a huge sweepstakes in the draft. Their corners suck, their safeties suck, they don't have good OLBers, and they are struggling at NT. Their D is in sorry shape.

Chicago in Sept. that is what I wanted . booking now.

We all need to get our tickets together if possible. You all can come up WI and stay with Jodi and I if you want.

CBUS you driving? If so it's about 140 extra mile to come to my house.

Thinking about Chcago, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and Cleveland. Only definite one is Cleveland.

About as good of a schedule as you will get in our division off of a 10 win season.

Nice bye week placement.

Brees
Cutler
Kaep
Foles
Stafford
Roethlisberger
Flacco
Browns QB
Wilson
Dalton
Kaep
Foles
Bridgewater
Bradford
Rodgers
Wilson

Not bad in terms of QBs we play. And the best ones we play at home.

thursday game is at home which is favorable.

Early prediction...11-5.

Yes, we should all get our tix together. That will be fun.

Thanks for the invite but that's also our anniversary weekend and we'll be spending Friday and Saturday in the city.

I've already booked the hotel room at the Conrad downtown.

Any idea where you are staying?

We can all stay at my house, it's only 3 hours (with traffic) from Soldier Field. We can leave early on Sunday morning to the game and back to my house after the game. If everyone is flying into Chicago then the wife and I will come and stay in Chicago with everyone.

Or we can (without invitation) invade slanidrac or Zeno's Place....:D

Absolutely love this schedule from the Cardinals perspective. Dodged a serious bullet by only having one cold weather game at Philly just before Christmas. We play Seattle both games later in the year when DWash should be back with the team, well-rested and able to chase down the pipsqueak.

3 of first four at home, catch a couple teams coming off Monday nighters. Play at Seattle coming off our bye. We get a well-positioned bye in week 9.
No Thursday night road games. Couldn't have made it much better if B.A. and S.K. had made it themselves.

GO CARDINALS!!

Wow. That is a brutal end to the season. Packers then Seahawks.

At least they are both home games.

Something that I haven't seen anyone point out yet (correct me if I'm wrong) is that all three NFC West road games are over a four week stretch. The only break in that is a home game against the Bengals.

Not necessarily. One or both teams might not have anything to play for.

Another thing nice about the bye is if the Cards happen to be able to grab a 1 or 2 seed they'll have two nice byes.

Correct.

That stretch of games is going to determine how good our season is IMO.

Pretty much as good as we could hope for. We will log the most travel miles, 27,000, at least that's what I heard on the radio.

Has anybody seen SOS stats listed?
