[Senator Clay Davis]

The formula for scheduling never changes.

6 games versus division
4 games versus other division in conference
4 games versus other division in other conference
Remaining two games are your across the line teams in conference

So the Raiders get Baltimore and Buffalo this year because they finished in third place in their divisions, like the Raiders did. They get Tennessee because they have the AFC South as their other division in conference (otherwise they'd get Jacksonville if it was another division). If the Raiders win the division this year (dare to dream!) they'll get the other AFC division winners next year.
