Jaguars looking at rough schedule in 2010
By Bud L. Ellis
Five of the Jacksonville Jaguars’ 16 games this season will be against four teams that combined for 49 wins last season.
That’s why the Jags have one of the more difficult schedules in the National Football League in 2010.
The NFL has released the list of home games and road games for each of its teams. Dates and times will be announced later this spring.
The Jags look at a schedule that ranks fifth-toughest in the league, based on opponents’ winning percentage. A big reason why is a home-and-home with AFC champion and AFC South rival Indianapolis, a home game with NFC wild-card team Philadelphia, and road games at AFC West champion San Diego and NFC East champion Dallas.
Those four teams combined to go 49-15 last season.
Jacksonville also plays home games against Houston, Tennessee, Denver, Oakland, Cleveland and Washington. On the road, the Jags travel to Houston, Tennessee, Kansas City, Buffalo and the New York Giants.
