How difficult will the Jets schedule be next year? Well, that could be up to the Jets.
Right now their opponents have exactly a .500 record. They are a combined 110-110 (counting the records of division opponents twice since they play them twice). Obviously everyone plays this weekend, but the Jets control their own strength-of-schedule destiny in a way. They play the Chiefs on Sunday, and will play the Chiefs next year.
So essentially, if the Jets win on Sunday, their schedule next year gets easier.
Just something -- anything -- to add a bit of significance to this game.
Thanks to Dave Tratner for that insight by the way.
