He's the only owner RG has kicked it with? The have secret meetings to give Patriots a favorable? :mjlol::youngsabo::umad:
Here is an excerpt from a Business Insider magazine.

Robert Kraft quietly made the first step in rebuilding his relationship with Roger Goodell

Kraft had been very important to the commissioner's position atop the most powerful sports league in the world.
In a story for GQ magazine prior to the Super Bowl, Gabriel Sherman outlines just how close Goodell and Kraft had been, and how it was Kraft who backed Goodell during the uproar over how the league handled the Ray Rice domestic-assault scandal. According to the story, when the Rice case began to spin out of control, it was Kraft who arranged for Goodell to do his first on-air interview, on CBS with a woman as the interviewer. It was also Kraft who lobbied other owners to publicly support Goodell.
Goodell and Kraft were so close that at least one NFL executive refers to Kraft as "the assistant commissioner."
Kraft was also the owner who "vigorously defended" Goodell's $44 million salary.



Yea, he'd hate to lose that relationship

go back and read, I wasn't the one that started with the schedule nonsense.
Dude was saying the Dolphins had a cupcake schedule, completely forgetting that the Patriots schedule is just as or even easier than the Dolphins.

Not the Pats fault they gotta play the rest of the AFC east all the time :mjlol:

We'll you obviously don't watch much football or Know the Rules. NFL does not decide who faces who, its already set beforehand and based on you record the previous season.

.....but I'm gonna let you continue with your theory that the Patriots get preferential treatment when it comes to scheduling Easy opponents.

Read the last part. Two Intraconference Games Matching First Place teams against each other.(Those Games your Dolphins don't get to play often)

because they consistently get a schedule that benefits them better than any other team?

I KNOW how the schedule is prepared years in advance. THat doens't mean the Patriots don't get favorable matchups and back to backs,etc that favor them

As long as we win the Division, our schedule will ALWAYS be Tougher than yours(We get matched with TWO other First place teams) and last time I checked

Now remind me the last time ya won the Division..... we all get 8 home 8 away and a Bye week... No matter how you slice it, there will be road games, back to back for everyone.

Miami has 2 road back to backs including a game in London, PLUS a 3 game road trip. All before week 10.
6 official road games and one in London before week 10!!
If that isn't set up to make a team fail I don't know what is.

this isn't about WHO you are playing, but when you are playing that makes the scheduling unfair.

:patrice:

See, I never just did things just to do them, c'mon I mean, what I'm gonna do just all of the sudden just jump up and grind my feet in somebody's couch like it's something to do? Come on, I got a little more sense than that. ...Yeah, I remember grinding my feet into Eddie's couch.
