Our 2020 opponents are set. The AFC North plays the NFC East so the 2 worst divisions this year play each other next. We will be playing a lot of teams that were bad this year and will be rebuilding next. Even Baltimore will have challenges next year when Lamar Jackson gets hit with the Madden curse (come on you know he's gonna be on the cover for 2020)

Great, Dallas fans. I'm sure those frontrunners are already selling plasma to buy a new rope belt for their trip into the big city.

From a travel standpoint, they seem to have caught a bit of a break next year.

I noticed that as well. No West Coast trips.
Please use 2025 free agency to fix the trenches, not the draft!!!!!!!!

Shoot, Houston is the only away game even in a different time zone

Of course Baltimore and Pittsburgh have the #1 and #2 easiest schedule.
Cincinnati is 6th
New England has the worst, that was a surprise

We play essentially the same schedules. Their SOS is easier, because the Bengals are on their schedules, with our 2-14 record from last year. Our SOS is slightly higher because of Baltimore's record last year.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Considering theres only 2 games that are variable, you would think the AFC North will have SOS that are pretty similar.
It's a pretty favorable schedule. IF our #1 pick plays like an average QB and our line is improved with Jonah, I see minimum 6 wins.

 Not that I'm doubting you, but shouldn't the Bengals and the 'stains have the 1-2 easiest schedules??
The only thing I hate worse than Pittsburgh football...
...is Pittsburgh fans!!

At first glance, I thought so too, but we don't get to play the Bengals, so that's why their schedule is easier.

The Steelers and Ravens are projected to have it pretty easy in 2020 because they get 4 total games against 2019s worst team and we don't.

The front office has an ideal schedule to prove they know what they are doing. Bengals should go 8-8 if the front office makes good personnel decisions over the next few months. They bomb again then we know, the post Mike Brown era will be setting new lows.

Hummm. 
If Bengals fix some things on OL and backers I think with Burrow the Bengals can go 9-7.

Very well could. I think they need to keep AJ though.
Can just dream of Burrow hitting him in stride...
Would be deadly
