Something I always enjoy about the NFL is the minute your season ends, your opponents for the next season are set. Here are the Rams' opponents for 2009:
Road: Arizona, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Detroit, Jacksonville, Tennessee, Washington.
They'll lose all 3 road division games. Chicago and Tennessee look like pretty sure losses.
Their one must win next season is at Detroit.
They can split the other two games. After all, they beat Washington in their place this year.
And the Jagwires were poor at home this season. Good chance to take either of those.
Home: Arizona, San Francisco, Seattle, Green Bay, Houston, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Minnesota
Tough-looking home schedule. Besides the Colts and 10-6 Vikings, they've got a couple of 9-7's and a couple of 8-8's.
I demand they win at least 2 of the three division games.
Green Bay, Houston and New Orleans were poor road teams. Toss in a Minnesota team QB'ed by Tavaris Jackson or Gus Frerotte, and 3 wins against those 4 is very reasonable.
A 7-9 record isn't a lot to ask from next year's team. Then again, that's the record I was looking for this season.
