Cardinals, Dolphins, Texans and Bills. Wow. Do you think NE could have hand picked a better 4 games for Brady to miss? Interesting.
Yeah, pretty tough slate there most likely.
Considering the league schedule is made by a computer it's unlikely they hand picked those 4 games. Now Brady returns in his first game against the Browns, then the Bengals and finally the Steelers.
Um it's not made by computer. " The NFL schedule-makers — Senior Vice President of Broadcasting Howard Katz, Vice President of Broadcasting Onnie Bose, Senior Manager of Broadcasting Jonathan Payne and Senior Director of Broadcasting Michael North — have to consider the fans, the league’s broadcast partners and many other factors when building the 256-game schedule that spans the 17 weeks of the NFL season and showcases the league’s best matchups and talent.
