Don't Superbowl teams end up with difficult schedules normally?

It's their six divisonal games which is skewing everything -- two games each against 1-15 Miami, 4-12 Jets, and 7-9 Bills. Otherwise, this wouldn't be an issue.
Probably the hardest part of their schedule is the 5 non-divisional road games -- four on the West Coast (San Fran, San Diego, Oakland, Seattle) and one in Indy...
I don't think they'll go 16-0 again this season... but I think they'll be very good again.
