Open Thread: 2010 NFL Schedule Release Special

PrintThe NFL has decided that today, April 20, is a good date to release the entire 2010 NFL schedule for all 32 teams and for all 17 weeks for the regular season. Coming up at 4:00 p.m. Pacific on ESPN2's special SportsCenter, we will know exactly who's playing who and when.
We already have ourselves a few spoilers from this morning.
Week 17 will only feature divisional games for the first time in NFL history. Commissioner Roger Goodell announced that this morning with Mike Greenberg and Mike Golic, two hosts for an ESPN radio program.
"We actually have 28 divisional games in those last three weeks, as opposed to 15 for the 2009 season, and all 16 of the final Week 17 games will be divisional games," Goodell said on "Mike & Mike in the Morning."
Secondly, the Minnesota Vikings will visit the New Orleans Saints to kick off the season in a rematch from the great 2009 NFC Championship Game last year. This one was released by Mr. Goodell on his own and not by those that actually make the schedules themselves.
"I know I will get in trouble from our scheduling makers for releasing this in advance, but the Saints will be hosting the Minnesota Vikings for our kickoff game. It should be a great celebration in a great city," Goodell said in the chat.
Well, have at it.

Matched up w/ the NFC West, NOICE!
Of course, we already knew this was the case, but it is good to see it in print.
A short road trip to SF, nice. It is too early to really judge a schedule, but the travel and a match up with the NFC West instead of the East all look better than last year.
Houston again? Really? What the shit?
I think when people are being funny, they are actually being serious and when people are being serious, it's actually really funny.
We’re playing the Texans again because we’re playing the entire AFC South this year. Last year, it was the entire AFC North. Next year, it’ll be the entire AFC East. Since the Dolphins and Steelers both finished third place in their respective divisions like us, we get them as well.

"The scope of the Raiders' problems spans beyond the quarterback position"
Wow.....Right now, Its not even sure Bruce is going to be 100% come Week 1.
Phillip Rivers Is A Fag.
Whoa, even though I love Grads, thats not realistic. Unless we get at least 2 rookies that will make an impact.
Those rookies can be Trent & Linval, or Dan Williams & Brown (USC OT). And Grads starting and healthy. Big ass maybe on your prediction.
The RaiderLaker
I been a fan of bruce since that dallas game in the preseason man
The man that was trained by jon gruden will get us on the right track. He has leadership skills and has the ability to make the o-line and our young Wideouts looks awesome soo I’m not too worried about our offense this year esp with hue jackson backing us up too. As for Russell…. he’ll fail once again in the preseason and get the boot out the door hopefully :) He can enjoy all those donuts cause he’ll be nothing more then a bench warmer when it’s all over.
Bruce and the raiders all day baby!

He is injured, and the recovery is longer than originally announced

The recovery after torn pec takes much longer (online medical info and blogs by injured athletes)
and Dr. LyleAlzadoPunch said something along these lines, too. I was hopeful that Grad injured his non-throwing-arm pec, but see what LyleAlzadoPunch said in another thread (I’ll go find it and copy/paste it here).
by Spirals galore on Apr 20, 2010 8:54 PM PDT up reply actions
here it is:
LAP:
bq. More wide open now Bruce blew/tore his pec. Whatever the media hears, whatever the Raiders say tearing your pec muscle is not fun and you really dont recover that well and fast especially if it requires surgery. It will affect his throwing no matter his arm will be weaker.

Thanks, Dr. LyleAlzadoPunch Does it matter that his torn pec is the left one (the non-throwing arm)?

.
LAP:
Yes The shoulder gurdle is balanced and the rotation will twist with throwing on follow through just obviously not as much as if it was his right. He will hold his left tighter and make it harder to relax when letting go of the ball.

Bruce may be ready to play just as the Russell project comes to its certain end - week 4 against Houston
by Sons-of-Blanda on Apr 20, 2010 9:06 PM PDT up reply actions
Sheeit
Now they are gonna draft a QB. Just watch.
Refuse to tiptoe through life only to arrive safely at death
They've been looking at QBs all along - but in the later rounds (Kafka, Canfield, Crompton)
the day Grad tore his pec they called Boller and signed him the next day. By now, Hugh Jackson has figured out that Russell isn’t going to ever develop and he will go with Bruce or Kyle Boller. I don’t believe we’ll spend our top pick on Clausen.

But it might take up to 3 weeks to finally convince Al - forever - that Russell is hopeless

Maybe we will luck out and get Kafka. If I had my way, we would wait and try for Jake Locker next year.

Locker may even go first overall.

But I think him being ready and him actually being as affective as he could should he not have any physical issues. I hope his great attitiude and work ethic makes up for it and I am wrong tho.

10 plus is realistic knowing how close we are to being a dominate team
Id say 11 wins this year even if we werent playing the sorriest group teams in the nfl, the colts are the only team i said hmm about and you know that doesnt mean we cant beat them. Time to quit doubting or putting yourfaith in rooks. Our guys can dothis and u better hope ur not suprised…leave that for the rest of the world
I even cum Black & Silver...

We’re not even a good team yet and you want to call us close to being dominant? How many dominant teams are there in the NFL? Two?
The Ultimate Opportunist
by Rated-R Superstar on Apr 20, 2010 5:51 PM PDT up reply actions
To me the dominant teams are the Saints: (Super badass god-like offense) Ravens: (Badass D) Vikings: (good O ,great D with the Williams dudes and Allen) The G-men (Giants) and the Pats.
Colts are not dominant, take away Manning and we will win that game, as a matter of fact he’ll be resting for the playoffs so we will get that win.
The RaiderLaker
The Colts aren’t dominant? Yeah, going undefeated in the regular season (in games in which all of their top guns played) means nothing. Maybe they aren’t dominate without Manning, but the Saints aren’t dominant without Brees and the Vikings aren’t dominant without Favre.

The Colts will be qualified no need for Peyton to play (Rest) . Also didn't you state they are a dominant team...way to back up your arguments...
You should know he won’t play since you stated they are a dominant team…
The RaiderLaker
Unless the Colts are dumb enough to test our 11th rank in sacks, and risk a Peyton injury.
We will come better and stronger than ever before and rank in the top 5 in sacks this up coming season so scratch the 11th rank. (unfortunately we might be 20th in Run defense though, all hope in the draft)
The RaiderLaker
You should know he won’t play since you stated they are a dominant team…
Um, being a dominant team doesn’t mean that you’ll have everything locked up two games before the season ends. I hope you realize that.

Time to make travel plans
I wont even begin to predict the win losses, I dont even care what our record is as long as we inprove enough that we do not draft in the top 1/2 of the round in 2011.
BUT
Will open the season in Nashville 9-12, Den 10-24, JAX 12-12 and KC 1-2-11. Really look fwd to the game in KC each year, lots of family and friends to tailgate with, and my birthday is the 3rd, so sounds like a KILLER WEEKEND in KC!
NO MERCY!
I love Raider games....You should definetly make it a goal to go to atleast 1..
Phillip Rivers Is A Fag.
The thing is
I live in the east. I plan on going into the film industry, so maybe I’ll get a chance to go to them then. I went to a couple pats games, and they were awesome. Going to your teams games is an amazing experience, and I can only imagine what the Coliseum will be like.
Dude, I thought you were going into the football industry. Have you had an epiphany of some sort?
by Sons-of-Blanda on Apr 20, 2010 8:59 PM PDT up reply actions
sports industry is one of my plans as well.
If media production at a low budget college I’m going to no longer interests me, then I’ll try and go to school to be a scout.
yea because we are gonna have the 32nd pick in the 2nd round.
We got the titans week one and what does tht mean for the titans?
it means bad news for the titans.

I looked at the games scheduled for Sunday night. Sixteen games will be played on Sunday night and exactly half of them feature a team from the NFC East with three of the eight games featuring two teams from the NFC East.

- For the Cleveland Browns, every single one of their games is an early start.
- The only teams without either a Sunday night or Monday night game are the Oakland Raiders, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Detroit Lions, Cleveland Browns and St. Louis Rams.
- According to my calculations, the Raiders are the last team in the NFL to play a division opponent. Week 5 at San Diego is our first AFC West game.

Not that bad of a schedule
having said that….lol…..I see us at 7-9 or 8-8…..
4-12 at best..
We are the same shit team from last year… nothing has changed. Same garbage QBs.. same pathetic WR’s (Murphy overrated.. Heyward-Bey is officially a BUST! ) …same garbage wife beater..err..coach.. same garbage owner. Too many key positions with mediocre crap for talent.
We are now officially the worst team in NFL history! Worst than the fabled ‘aints’ ! Look at what Alzheimer Al has done to this team…
Have you lost your entire mind?
Maybe you daon’t watch too much football? Maybe you are just the ultimate “follow the masses” hater? Whatever, man, this isn’t a bad team at all, pretty decent defense which will be better with a run stuffing interior lineman(look for Cody in the second round), and a helluva good running game already(against a stacked box—imagine what it will be like when there is a passing game). This is a pretty talented team.
I see an solid 8-8 year this year, maybe even a 9-7. Nothing sensational, but a huge improvement from last year. KC is the new whipping boy in the west.

Donkeys will be the whipping boys

GriM, get a grip on reality - we are better than last season - we've elliminated Green and Warren for upgrades and our
receiver corps was much better in the 2nd half of the season. Plus, we won’t have the handicap of Cable’s miserable play calling and misuse of players, i.e. McFadden and Bush. Also, the DL has a tough smart disciplinarian in Mike Waffle – he will make a tremendous difference and won’t allow Kelly’s shenanigans. Finally, your pessimism should at least wait until after the draft – it is premature at best.
by Sons-of-Blanda on Apr 21, 2010 10:28 AM PDT up reply actions
gm, go post elsewhere,loser!
i will predict after this draft. my main concern is our run D still. no upgrade as of yet, and thats going to be a big issue as far as us winning and losing games. i just want to see progress, some back to back wins, no more 10+ loss seasons, and more points scored by our offense. if we go 7-9, and we are in the top 20 in every stat across trhe board i will tink of this as a good season and us heading in the right direction. like sons said jackson and wauffle have already made this team better, and AL hasnt signed a cancer yet, in the off season…
by rodeosnake12 on Apr 21, 2010 11:09 AM PDT up reply actions
Maybe you should switch teams GM
I know I talk bad about this team sometimes but man I know we got the talent to win some games this season and possibility make it into the playoffs. Btw How can we be the worst team in history when we won three superbowls out of five (I was even lucky enough to see my team in the big show during my lifespan :) ) which is something to be proud of even during the rough times as it is. Try talking to a lions, Browns and SD CHoker fan dude those teams haven’t won anything in the past 50+ years! lolz

Hey G_M
you go to hell. You go to hell and you die! What’s your problem just lose a game online in madden? I like Cable guy he’s an Oline man. Murphy overated? He torched SD,and Pits defense a number of times. Heyward-Bey scored on Dallas with a impressive catch. I don’t think those two are even the best we have. Schilins and Miller each gonna have double digit TDs this year you watch. You bastard.

Blah blah blah..
I bet we all said the same thing in 2003.. so much talent.. gonna be good.. oh yeah..4-12.. then 2004.. we got talent.. draft looks good..Gallery (Bust)..to anchor the line…. 5-11… 2005… pre season hype.. new coach.. solidify the D..getting excited.. oh yeah.. 4-12… 2006.. top draft pick. .. this time will really have a good D…. 2-14!! … 2007.. top QB (Ja Buster ) .. offense looks good! ..4-12… 2008.. draft the stud RB (BUST!)…5-11… 2009.. Draft WHO? WTF? SUPER BUST!!! … 5-11..
So go an ramble on about the individual games where one player had a catch.. and ANYONE That thinks Heyward Gay is anything but pure trash.. knows NOTHING about what makes up a winning football team! .. I listen every year about how this year is going to be different.. I used to think that too.. bcuz there is no way it can get worse… and YES!…7 STRAIGHT years of double digit losses does make us one of the worst organizations in NFL history ( I do believe that is the record!! ..can we make it 8?? ) .. I don’t care how many SB’s we have won…
Same organization.. same coach… same owner.. same results..
Reality is a bitch! ..and we suck.. deal with it…
for the san diego superchokers is this and it always shuts them up---------------------------
when was the last time san diego won a superbowl? come on superchokers it not hard to say we havent won one! they choke the chicken every year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Wrok Way
We have been toying with an 8-8 season for the last 3 years. We had the opportunity to go 9-7 last year but as in the previous 3 years, could hold the lead in games when we were ahead going into the 4th quarter.
RAIDER WROK
Well here's my bold season predictions
Tennessee L
St. Louis W
Arizona W (Bruce starts here and leads us to comeback)
Houston L
San Diego W
49ers L
Denver W
Seattle W
Kansas City L
Bye
Pittsburgh W (ben is a little rusty…trombone)
Miami L
San Diego L
Jacksonville W
Denver L
Indianapolis W (Indy starters sit, Curtis Painter meet the Raider D)
Kansas City L
8-8 record, not too shabby.
