NFL Teams with the Easiest 2018 Schedules
I did a list on toughest schedules, and now it’s time for the easiest ones. Those whose opponent’s combined win-loss ratio have more losses than wins is in for an easy season, but who are those teams? We’re looking at the NFL teams with the easiest 2018 schedules.
The Houston Texans are a professional American football team based in Houston, Texas. The team competes in the National Football League as a member club of the American Football Conference South division. When you have a combined opponent win-loss ratio of 116-140, you know you’re in for an easy season. The easiest teams they play include the Giants, Cowboys, Dolphins, Jets, Broncos, Browns, Bills, and the Colts twice. With a rising star quarterback and an elite defense, they have the possibility of a super bowl run.
Literally their toughest games are the Pats, Eagles and Jags twice. Other than that this looks like a good setup for Houston to come back from injuries and a horrible season last year.
The New England Patriots are a professional American football team based in the Greater Boston region.
New England Patriots are one of the few teams to have 5+ wins in the Super Bowl. Does the league purposely give New England an easy schedule just so they can have a clear path to the Super Bowl? Who knows. The easiest teams they play are the Bears, Colts, and the Dolphins, Bills, and Jets twice. Those are almost sure fire wins (minus an away game in Miami).
I would think the deflatriots would have a tough scheduele because they are the toughest team in the league but NOPE
The Cincinnati Bengals are a professional American football franchise based in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Bengals currently compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's American Football Conference North division. They get the opportunity to make the playoffs for the first time since 2015 with a schedule like this. The easiest teams they play include the Colts, Dolphins, Buccaneers, Broncos, and they get to play the Browns twice. They haven’t been this lucky in a while. This requires better play by Andy Dalton however.
The Las Vegas Raiders are a professional American football franchise based in Las Vegas. The Raiders began playing in 1960 as a member club of the American Football League; they have been a member club of the National Football League since the 1970 AFL–NFL merger.
In 2020, the Raiders relocated from Oakland, California to Las Vegas. They get the privilege to play just four teams who made the playoffs in 2017. Their easiest games are against the Dolphins, Browns, Colts, Cardinals, Bengals, and they play the Broncos twice. Can they replicate their 12-4 2016 season?
The Tennessee Titans are a professional American football team based in Nashville, Tennessee. The Titans compete in the National Football League as a member club of the American Football Conference South division. Wow, they made the playoffs in 2017. And they won a game. Things are looking up for this team, and the schedule for 2018 benefits them. Their easiest opponents include the Dolphins, Jets, Giants, and the Colts twice. Hopefully they make the playoffs once more, and replicate their success in 2018.
The Los Angeles Chargers are a professional American football team based in Los Angeles. The Chargers compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's American Football Conference West division. This is an up and coming team, and their schedule gives them the benefit of the doubt. The easiest teams they play feature the Browns, Bengals, Cardinals, and they get to play the Broncos twice. Maybe they can finally end their playoff drought and they can end their season on a high note.
The New York Jets are a professional American football team located in the New York metropolitan area. Jets will probably go to the Super Bowl because of this easy schedule!
The Carolina Panthers are a professional American football team based in Charlotte, North Carolina, that competes in the National Football League. Can they go 15-1 again? No, but they have a playoff window. The easiest teams they play include the Cowboys, Bengals, Giants, Browns, and the Buccaneers twice. Can Cam Newton step up his passing game to make this season worthwhile?
The Pittsburgh Steelers are a professional American football team based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, that competes in the National Football League.
Pittsburgh Steelers have won the most Super Bowls with 6 which currently stands today. For a good team, an easy schedule paves a way to the playoffs and possibly a Super Bowl for the longing Steelers. Their easiest opponents are the Buccaneers, Broncos, and they get to play the Bengals and Browns twice. Ravens are unpredictable and may give them a hard time.
The Denver Broncos are an American football team based in Denver, Colorado. The Broncos compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's American Football Conference West division. Perfect schedule to start the process of reverting back to 2015 form. Their easiest opponents include the Jets, Cardinals, Bengals, and Browns. Tough and easy at the same time, as they also have to play their division foes twice, who are better teams than Denver.
