Seems like a FAR more favorable schedule next year, though the AFC East is quite formidable based on 2008 performance. It's probably countered by the weakness of the NFC West, but conference record could play a factor in tie-breakers, too.

At first blush, I'm hoping to avoid a December trip to Buffalo; but then again, the frigid temps haven't been a problem for the Texans in the past.

Wanted to make sure we miss Albert this year, and it looks like we do. So now schedule just got even easier.
