In honor of the 2012 schedule being released tonight, I thought we could partake in a fun, little activity. Why don't we make our own schedules while we wait for the NFL to bust out with the real thing. We have known our opponents for a while now, but we don't know when and where each game will be. Here is a list of our 2012 opponents:
Home: Texans, Colts, 49ers, Cardinals, Chargers, Bills, Dolphins, Patriots
Away: Jaguars, Titans, Seahawks, Rams, Steelers, Bills, Dolphins, Patriots
Come join me after the jump for what our schedule would look like if I were in charge, and make your own.
Week 1: Home Vs Colts
Week 2: Away Vs Dolphins
Week 3: Home Vs Chargers
Week 4: Away Vs Titans
Week 5: Home Vs Bills
Week 6: Home Vs 49ers
Week 7: Away Vs Jaguars
Week 8: BYE
Week 9: Away Vs Patriots
Week 10: Home Vs Cardinals
Week 11: Away Vs Steelers
Week 12: Home Vs Texans
Week 13: Away Vs Seahawks
Week 14: Home Vs Patriots
Week 15: Away Vs Rams
Week 16: Away Vs Bills
Week 17: Home Vs Dolphins
I wanted to start the season off with an easy game to give this team the best opportunity to get off on the right track. I don't think there is any question that the Colts are in rebuilding mode. Rex has a way of eating up rookie QBs. A quick week 1 win will give Sanchez some much needed support and breathing room. The next 4 games after week 1, are all winnable games in my mind. A win in week 1 will give mark some breathing room, but not much. If he pulls off a chain of wins, it won't matter what the Tebow fanatics are yelling. The 49ers will be our 1st big test. Will our offense hold up against that ferocious D?
The Jaguars would be a nice opponent going into the bye week. It's alway great going into the bye with a W, and some momentum going into the Patriots game. I love having the Patriots after the bye since we will have more time to prepare for them. I wanted to end the season on a high note. I gave us 3 easier games to end things, just in case we need some last minute Ws to get into the playoffs. Overall, I think this would be a very friendly schedule for the Jets in 2012. What would yours look like?
