gonzaiI noticed yesterday, and haven't seen it mentioned at all, but:
Of the 4 pairs of teams which will play each other this coming weekend, 3 of those pairs played each other in a regularly scheduled game the last week of the season. These teams will play each other twice in 6-7 days. I can see how that might happen for one matchup a year, but it seems to me that it happening three times in the same year is very weird.
(Philadelphia @ Dallas and Green Bay @ Arizona repeat exactly; NJ Jets @ Cincinnati is same matchup, but switching home/away.)
