2008 Redskins Schedule

How'd you get it early?

I thought it came out at 2pm?

This is what Sportstalk 980 released short time ago.

WOW! Thanks SS!

Our toughest stretch is Pitt, Dallas, @Seattle, NYG. And 3 outta the 4 are at home with a bye week thrown in after the Pitt game! I like it!

I can't remember the last time we had a week 10 bye. I like that too. A late bye to gear up for the stretch run.

I don't like playing 3 out of our last 4 on the road.

Schedule looks good.

I'm not really dreading a lot of the opponents that we have to face. Also our division games are spread out as opposed to years past.

It's been a while since we've been done with the Cowboys before Thanksgiving, too. Seems like in most recent years we've played our 2nd game against them very late.

Pros: The bye week comes at a good time.

Cons: I don't like
11/3 vs PIT
BYE

It looks pretty tough as we sit here in April, but that is what happens when you play in the NFC East and draw the AFC North - I guess having the NFC West might help, but Seattle and New Orleans should be tough also. The bigger question I have, and which we won't know until later in the day, is how many teams we have to play coming off their Bye weeks. That is usually a tough draw.

You are right, though, that four game stretch of road games doesn't do us any favors. Tough places to play all, and two in division. I guess it is good that at least the Bye week falls in there.

I thought we might play the Cowboys for the final game at Texas Stadium

Steelers isn't the MNF game we were expecting/hoping for

(I think Titans vs Lions is one of the Thanksgiving games. Considering the PacMan rumors Titans vs Cowboys could have been better)
