UPDATE: The 2009 schedule has been released.
The NFL has released the New England Patriots schedule for 2009 and by the looks of it, it’s not going to be easy. The AFC East opponents are in bold.
Home:
- Buffalo Bills
- Miami Dolphins
- New York Jets
- Jacksonville Jaguars
- Tennessee Titans
- Baltimore Ravens
- Atlanta Falcons
- Carolina Panthers
Away:
- Buffalo Bills
- Miami Dolphins
- New York Jets
- Houston Texans
- Indianapolis Colts
- Denver Broncos
- New Orleans Saints
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Of their 16 opponents, 6 made the playoffs this year. 5 of those games will take place at Gillette Stadium and 2 of them will be on the road.
I don’t know about what you think but I don’t see an easy game for the Patriots next season. Of course we still have a long way to go until we get to that point.
