True - but a season tix holder looks at the home schedule and says hot dayum! Some years are duds for opponents, that looks like fun though.

... and the only possible away game they could play in London is against the Chargers.

Yup, why couldn't we get at least 1 of the top 2 teams in the AFC West and maybe Seattle at home? :#

Really WTH did we ever do to these schedule makers. 

those games are set from a rotation that was created years ago... its just how the teams rise and fall as far as how difficult our schedule is in terms of opponents and where we play them.  where the schedule makers come into play is the order in which we play them and the day of the week and time of day.  Who we play is fixed based on a rotation and how we finish our year vs opposing division winners.

I would like to see the league implement a somewhat fixed schedule in that division games are the first 3 and last 3 games of the season, with the homes and aways rotated each year,  then work in the rest through the middle with maybe the non conference being strung together,  the common division strung together, and then fill in with the opposing division equals.  take some of the randomness out of the equation from that aspect.
