    WTF....1 home game in 7 weeks! Are you kidding me. 5 road games, a bye week and home game over a 7 week stretch.

    Lucky to go 2-2 through that stretch, at best.

    The way I see this right now, as is, 7-9 with 8-8 being the best we could do. The 1 home game in 7 weeks is brutal and the schedule isn't easy to begin with.

    What? The 1 home game in 7 weeks is where we will get hot. We suck at home.

    I missed that. So we get screwed again by having to go on the road with a short week for a X-Mas eve game, after playing on the road up north the week before.

    That WON'T happen again. Pure freakish luck that the road wins were had last year. We were much worse than that and right now aren't any better...

    hell we are worse since right now we only have 1 RB on the roster and Henne is still QB.

    Jesus.....our owner kinda pisses me off.

    Why the hell do we play the Texans, whom we have never beaten at home, second week, at 4:30?

    Only thing I dislike about our schedule is yet another early bye.

    1 home game in a 7 week span is odd but we still play 8 home and 8 away. Doesn't bother me.

    We've never beat them period. Home, away, 1 o'clock, or 4 o'clock...I just want to beat them.

    Kinda sucks that if there is a season, we have to wait one more day to watch our first game.

    Oh, no doubt, so many factors that could make such a difference either way.

    No 1 oclock home games till late October again? Ross strikes again, if he didn't like hot weather he shoulda bought the Vikings. What a douche...

    I'd prefer to open up the season on Sunday afternoon. There's nothing like that first Sunday of the season. This is like pushing Christmas back another day for your family, while everyone else celebrates.

    The fact that we are opening the season on Monday night against the hated Pats is growing on me. All the teams will have shared opening day with 29 other teams and we get our very own night to kill the Patsies on National Television.

    The "Eternal Optimist" is back!!

    Because he doesn't think fans are as likely to come out for a hot 1:00 PM start.

    Also, that game is on a short week. I feel like a broken record. :lol:

    I'm sure our 3-1/2 extra hours on game day will make a difference.
    Extra time to prepare for a team we've never beaten...... ever. :shifty:

    There usually is a double header on that 1st Monday night. We get the "early" game and then the last few years the Raiders have gotten a later game, usually against a division foe.
