Preseason schedule


Whur CHad At?

Recommended Posts

Week 1: at Detroit weekend of Aug. 11-15

Week 2: at N.Y. Jets weekend of Aug. 18-22

Week 3: vs. Carolina weekend of Aug. 25-29

Week 4: vs. Indianapolis on Sept. 1 or 2

Exact dates and times to be announced later.

Does four preseason games mean that they've junked the 18 game schedule for 2011?

How do they work out the pre-season schedule (genuine question)?????

Including this season over the last twelve pre-seasons we would've played:-

Colts ELEVEN times

Lions 6 times

Bills 5 times

Saints & Falcons 4 times

Patriots 3 times

Bears, Redskins, Eagles, Jets & Green Bay twice

Buccaneers, Panthers, Broncos, Rams, Titans just once.

I just wondered how the League works out who plays who :boxed::confused:

I think they try to do it based off of geography. Indy is our closest neighbor so that is a natural. You won't play someone in your division so that is out too. And it is not practical to play any of the west coast teams. I think they have played Denver and St. Louis in the preseason but that's about as far west as they would go. In fact I think Denver came here.

For many consecutive years, we would play Detroit but I think that was dropped several years ago. Beyond that I don't think it is an exact science.
