I don't want to hear any complaints about tough schedules because all NFL schedules are done by a formula. Every team plays:
-the other teams in its division twice (6)
-one entire division from the other conference (4)
-one entire division from its own conference (4)
-the two teams in its conference that finished in the same place in their division (2)
So teams in the same division play 12 games against the same teams and 2 games against each other. The NFL may have the most balanced scheduling of any sport.
The only discretion the NFL has is when the games are played, even where is determined by a formula. I like the Redskins schedule. Start off with the Vikings on Monday night, then go to Texas to play the Cowboys and Texans. Hopefully, that's at least a 2-1 start. We end the season with the Giants in Washington at 8pm on December 30th. High expectations this year.

I don't look at the schedule any more. The salary cap has made it impossible to tell who is going to be horrible to great.
