Wright On

Florida Times-Union reporter Michael C. Wright covers the ins and outs of the Jacksonville Jaguars. In this blog, he'll share behind-the-scenes anecdotes not published within the pages of the T-U, in addition to offering up incessant ramblings about nothing such as road trips, crummy hotels and not-so-delicious press box food. Perhaps he'll even delve into serious discussions about NFL issues. So ask questions, participate in conversations, or just learn more about the Jags.

Jaguars strength of schedule

Just in case you wanted to know, here's some interesting info about the Jaguars' upcoming season. Below is the 2008 strength of schedule. Let me know what you think.

I apologize for everything being a little crooked. I had to line it all up by hand (TEDIOUS). Anyway, does anybody find it interesting that New England received the easiest schedule? Sure, they play in the wet-paper-sack weak AFC East, but surely the schedule makers could've made the non-divisional schedule a little tougher. After all, the Pats did go 16-0 last season.


2008 NFL STRENGTH OF SCHEDULE
Note/explainer: The numbers represent the combined win/loss percentage and records of each team's opponents for the 2007 season, the number of games against teams that finished .500 or better in '07 and the number of games against playoff teams from last season. So Pittsburgh's opponents for 2008 finished 153-103 in '07 and the Steelers have 12 games against teams that finished .500 or better last season, in addition to eight games against playoff teams from '07.
