Week 1: Cincinnati
Week 2: @ Jacksonville
Week 3: Kansas City
Week 4: @ NY Jets
Week 5: @ New Orleans
Week 6: BYE
Week 7: Atlanta
Week 8: @ Pittsburgh
Week 9: @ Miami
Week 10: New England
Week 11: @ Tampa Bay
Week 12: Carolina
Week 13: Baltimore (in Toronto)
Week 14: Miami
Week 15: @ Cleveland
Week 16: @ New England
Week 17: NY Jets

Thought process:

Cannot play Steelers week 4 because they will be in London. Steelers bye week is likely week 5.
Bills not likely to be at home week 9 because of Sec 6 playoffs.
Bills play Ravens in Toronto because of the deal renewal and marketability of playing the reigning champs
League usually has teams play division foes in last week or two of the season.

Prediction game did not include time and day they play, just week. I could see the Bills hosting the Falcons on Thursday night. Maybe one of the division games on Sunday night

I wish I knew when the Patriots bye week was. That would make one of our games easy to pick.

I just went random. I mean, how the hell is it not random anyway? Not like you have to think too hard about it. You know one thing: the league likes to have the last couple of few games against division opponents, which makes it less likely that teams will rest their starters at the end of the year in meaningless games. I put our bye-week at week 8. That would be a nice time to have it, probably.

Me too, it'd be a small miracle if I picked it right & I don't even remember what I did from this morning (damn drugs).

Just prepare to plug your ears, they're going to be popping.

It depends on your age, size and athletic ability. If you're in your 20s and built like Marrone, you might end up having your seat on the Bills bench when we're on D since you might end up our starting LG. This isn't just a contest, they also have the option to give you a tryout.

I just started throwing some helmets around & it never told me what I picked, so I have no idea what I picked since I thought it would give me a printable summary. The only definite thing I did was make sure the final week was against a divisional opponent.

The Sherpas and I will set up base camp halfway there the night before and make the rest of the trip in the morning.

Then I'll bring the oxygen tanks.

You missed the few 30 and 40 point loss meltdowns we're in for every year.

did I, or is that the improvement from last year that everyone was hoping for with the coaching switch and kevin kolb era? :-)
