Jets seems like a perfect option?Yikes. I typically like to come to a 1pm Sunday game with my kids from NJ earlier in the season. Seems like very few options

i said few not none lol. But yeah. Maybe we will skip the Jets - Patriots and the Meadowlands and just make the trip for thatJets seems like a perfect option?
Miami in general has been bad for them, but September... it'll be hot.Stupid September games in Miami.
And the theme song they stole from the OilersI guess I take points away for the stupid bouncing dolphin mascot and "That's a Dolphin FIRST DOWN!!!!!!".
More acclimated to the heat and humidity in week 2 than week 15. I don't hate it.Stupid September games in Miami.
Houston is their only game out of the eastern time zone.I HATE the Miami game in September. Never seems to go well for the Pats that early in the season.
I LOVE that the farthest the Pats have to travel is Houston.
Do we know yet which games CBS and FOX claimed ownership of?PIT is a lame, lame choice to open. BAL SNF as well, why?
I thought every team is required to play on TNF once.NYG on TNF is a terrible choice, not sure what the networks are thinking there.
this guy gets itStupid September games in Miami.
it should be NYG playing some other crap team on TNF, not us.I thought every team is required to play on TNF once.
Not officially, but I'm positive FOX wanted to protect Cowboys/Pats and Eagles/Pats and CBS wanted Chiefs/Pats. Judging by the schedule, they got what they wanted.Do we know yet which games CBS and FOX claimed ownership of?
NFL and FOX started putting better matchups on Thursday night last year.it should be NYG playing some other crap team on TNF, not us.
RightNFL and FOX started putting better matchups on Thursday night last year.
Why are those good matchups and Giants/Pats isn't? Pats pull people in and also the NY market equals good ratings.Right
good matchup would be NYG NYJ or NYG WASH not NYG NEP
That's not the case anymore. The Bills (at least) didn't play on Thursday last year and the Bengals don't this year.I thought every team is required to play on TNF once.
Whythis guy gets it
@ Miami should be in December
vs. Miami in Foxy should be in Sept/Oct
Uhhhh...huh? What's the theme?Carolina again???
They should get Miami or something to go with the former D coach theme.
6 rings each.PIT is a lame, lame choice to open. BAL SNF as well, why?
they must be assuming A's will go to World Series.Raiders with 5 road games in a row if you count London as a road games.
Easier for Pats to play in heat and humidity in September than December. Much more of a home field advantage for Pats in December too.weather
???Easier for Pats to play in heat and humidity in September than December. Much more of a home field advantage for Pats in December too.
Come December Pats are used to colder weather.???
Have you ever been in Miami in September?
Who wants to go Miami in September.
But I'm speaking as a fan, not a player.
In any case, looking forward to Pats playing in Miami in February.
they should be winning in any weather, You're too pessimistic.Come December Pats are used to colder weather.
As a fan I would agree.
Then again as a fan I’d rather see a win in sweltering heat than a loss in comfortable weather. If playing there in September means more likelihood of a win I am all for it.
Should didn’t do much good in 2015, 2017, 2018...they should be winning in any weather, You're too pessimistic.
they made it to February in those years, no?Should didn’t do much good in 2015, 2017, 2018...
Shift the goalposts muchthey made it to February in those years, no?
not at all. Again, speaking a fan. They can win in any conditions. Only things that matter are SB's and more Pats fans like you and me at the games.Shift the goalposts much
I might be there--my kid goes to school near DC.Anyone go to the Washington game back in 2011? That seems like a potential road trip. Great time of year, could do touristy things in DC, etc.
Yes as a fan Miami is more enjoyable in December. Also, the grass is green.not at all. Again, speaking a fan. They can win in any conditions. Only things that matter are SB's and more Pats fans like you and me at the games.
That’s the best time to visit, fall. You’ll have no problem getting tickets. Might be like those Red Sox at Orioles games a couple of years back.I might be there--my kid goes to school near DC.
I live in NoVA and have experienced no difference in nine years.That’s the best time to visit, fall. You’ll have no problem getting tickets. Might be like those Red Sox at Orioles games a couple of years back.
So the Os fans have not begun to reclaim their stadium? I haven’t been in years.I live in NoVA and have experienced no difference in nine years.
No. I just bought 5! tickets for (Easter) Sunday (best friend is a homegrown Twins fan) for row 17 at $40 each behind the Os dugout. Looked to be 1000s still available if anyone is interested.So the Os fans have not begun to reclaim their stadium? I haven’t been in years.
FWIW — several analysts dub the Patriots the schedule winners:
