Well we don't even know the official schedule so I doubt it.

Yes, it's still way too early. Sometimes they don't even make the decision until game time.

A safe bet would be the home opener. I'd strongly bet against the team using them in Toronto. If they play in Miami or perhaps even Jacksonville early in the season and either one of them opts to wear white at home, that's another possibility.

Usually things like this are decided within a game week itself even as close as gametime. If anyone tries to tell you different it's a guess.

Speaking of schedule, anybody know when that usually comes out? I need to make my final decision of concert vs. home opener and I need to know when and who we're playing.

They do set tentative dates, but they are in no way bound by them.

And by the way, the schedule is revealed in early to mid-April. Just a heads up.

i know about the schedule release in April. i usually buy as many of the flights as possible depending on how far out in advance Jetblue seats. sometimes i wait til june. I'm anxiously waiting for the schedule because i think this year could be a big one.

and i demand the throwbacks be worn at our real home, and not in toronto.

Good, I don't have to wait too much longer before I can go ahead and make my plans this year!

I don't remember when the schedule was released last year, but I do remember them delaying it a bit.

either way, looks like it should be within about a month or so.
