HOME:
Atlanta Falcons
2013 Record: 4-12
Getting Jones back automatically makes them much better, but they'll still need to address the offensive line, get tougher on defense and find people who can get to the QB. I don't see us doing worse than a season split.
New Orleans Saints
2013 Record: 11-5
Losing Graham would be a big blow. Still, I wouldn't expect their offense to drop off much and they're stingy on defense. Hopeful that we can get a season split.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
2013 Record: 4-12
They have talent, and Lovie will make them into a solid team. He's also the kind of coach I don't lose sleep over. The Tedford thing seems a little bit out there. There's some transition to deal with between young players like Glennon and a new staff. I'm hopeful for a sweep and expecting no worse than a split.
Chicago Bears
2013 Record: 8-8
Depends on if they can fix that horrible defense, but they certainly have players on offense who can be a nightmare. Fortunately Cutler can neutralize that by being Cutler, and the game is in Charlotte. Looks like a reasonable game.
Detroit Lions
2013 Record: 7-9
Glad they hired Caldwell. A team with talent that has no real identity, and I don't expect them to find one in 2014. Caldwell will probably make them into a poor man's Manning Colts. Granted, their talent alone can be a headache to deal with.
Cleveland Browns
2014 Record: 4-12
Ignore their clusterfuck of a coaching search, and they actually have players who can cause issues for us. Not terribly worried though, unless they stumble ass backwards into a competent coaching staff.
Pittsburgh Steelers
2014 Record: 8-8
I think they'll be a little better. Tomlin is still a Bull. Their secondary might be in transition with some younger players, which may not be a bad thing for them.
Seattle Seahawks
2014 Record: 13-3
Thankful we get to play in here. So damn close in week one. Even in 2012. We can beat these guys.

Atlanta Falcons, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, New Orleans Saints

Green Bay Packers
2013 Record: 8-7-1
They'll obviously be better with a healthy Rodgers, but their ridiculous decision to keep Dom allows this to be a game that we can probably compete in.
Minnesota Vikings
2013 Record: 5-10-1
I think they're a QB away from being an exciting offense. Especially if they get Norv. Defense will be a huge project. Zimmer has tons of defensive expertise, which might not matter much in the head coaching position. Might be a tricky game.
Baltimore Ravens
2013 Record: 8-8
They gave up the most 40+ yard passes in 2013. Unfortunately we generated the fewest big plays on offense. This will probably be a tough game. Losing Caldwell is addition by subtraction. I heard they might hire Chud (REVENGE ANGLE!)
Cincinnati Bengals
2013 Record: 11-5
They are the NFL's Butterface.
Philadelphia Eagles
2013 Record: 10-6
Fuck.
Summary:
Looks like a reasonable home slate, with some tricky and difficult games on the road. I'd bet melonhead's asshole that we could stumble ass backwards into 9 or 10 wins, barring serious injuries. We'll see how things work out this spring. Ultimately you never really know how hard or easy a schedule will be. This year's was supposed to be impossible. It's volatile league.
