The NFC West and the AFC North with NO and Detroit thrown in. Besides our usual NFC East games, it broke down like this:
Home Games - Arizona, S.L., Cleveland, Pittsburgh and N.O.
Away Games - S.F., Seattle, Baltimore, Cincy and Detroit
If someone already posted this I apologize...I did not see it already out there.

Cinci and Seattle are going to be very difficult games, but I think that home schedule is pretty favorable.
Obviously the games against Pittsburgh and Cleveland don't mean as much as the other ones, but New Orleans, St. Louis, and Arizona all look like average opponents for next year. Games that could go either way.
Those divisional games will be critical.
