Strength of schedule helps Browns, Steelers

Posted Apr. 28 at 08:12 AM

Here’s a strength of schedule blurb – a mix of last year’s strength of schedule with the same numbers for the upcoming season.

The Browns, Steelers and Ravens project to receive the biggest boost from stregnth of schedule – each played a very difficult schedule last year but will play an easy schedule in 2009.

The Bills, Dolphins and Falcons, meanwhile, are at the other end of the schedule. They played easy schedules last year but now will play hard schedules (at least based on teams’ win-loss records from last season).
