4. Schedules matter

Some people think NFL schedules are the be all, end all to a teams success in the regular season. ‘If my team can just get the right break, we’ll be able to make it to the playoffs.’

The truth is schedules don’t matter in the grand scheme of thing. We can analyze them until we’re blue in our faces, but it’s not going to make a big difference one way or the other. At the end of the season, everyone will have played eight “home games” and eight road games and that’s what matters.

The best teams are going to get into the playoffs and even if they “lucked” into one of those spots, they will quickly be eliminated. Those teams who missed the playoffs because they had a bad schedule break wouldn’t have had the same fate.

At the end of the day, the best teams will get in and the team who’s playing the best will win the Super Bowl at the very end of the season.
