2021 schedule, the exact schedules for
all 32 teams will be announced tomorrow.

The following article simply reviews each
team's 2021 opponents, assessing sche-
dule difficulty based solely on the 2020
records of each team's opponents:
https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2021-nfl-strength-of-schedule-ranking-for-all-32-teams-heading-into-the-nfls-inaugural-17-game-season/

Easiest Schedule, Eagles, 2021 opponents
with a 2020 record of 117-155 .430, but
Eagles 3 toughest opponents (Bucs, Chiefs,
Saints), they play them all in Philadelphia.

2nd Easiest Schedule, Cowboys, 2021 oppon-
ents with a 2020 record of 122-148-2 .452, but
Cowboys 3 toughest opponents (Bucs, Chiefs,
Saints), they play them all on the road.

~~~

Toughest Schedule, Steelers, 2021 opponents
with a 2020 record of 155-115-2 .574 .

2nd Toughest Schedule, Ravens, 2021 oppon-
ents with a 2020 record of 152-118-2 .563 .

~~~

Standard disclaimer: Most teams have similar
records from one year to the next, but some
nosedive, going from good to not-so-good/bad,
and some skyrocket, going from bad or not-so-
good to much better or great. You just never
know. Injuries, unfortunately, sometimes play
a huge role.

Also, as stated above, it's not only which teams
you play, but where you play them that can ele-
vate or deflate a team's actual ability to win ver-
sus difficult opponents.

You don't know which opponents will be easy or not based on last year data!!!

Your typical crap in play, throw out your PC calculations.
