NFL: Who Has the Hardest Remaining Schedule?

Don't you always want to know an opponents schedule? What about for the rest of the year to see how hard it is? If you are a Jets fan, you want to see the Patriots schedule. If you are a Falcons fan, you want to see the Saints schedule.

With surprises from the Buccaneers, Chiefs, Raiders, and Jaguars, it might not get any harder.

Here is the rest of the schedule for all CONTENDING NFL teams on a scale of 1-10.

P.S. 1= easiest

10= hardest

Week 9: @ Vikings

10: Seahawks

11: @ Chiefs

12: 49ers- Monday Night Football

13: Rams

14: Broncos

15: @ Panthers

16: Cowboys

17: @ 49ers

Is it just me or is it that every year the Cardinals play the 49ers on MNF? Anyway, the Cardinals have a pretty easy schedule with easy games against the 49ers, and Panthers. But the Seahawks and Broncos might be challenging as well as the Cowboys playing spoiler. 

Scale: 3 out of 10.
