To me it's like who really cares? Maybe the fans but I doubt the players.
Every team gets 8 home and 8 away games. The goal is to win as many of those games as possible to qualify for the post-season. Irregardless of whether you open or close at home the goal is still the same. Heck, if I were a player I'd actually try to make a positive out of opening on the road; if you win it jump starts your road win goals and gives you something to look forward to for your home opening day - the town will be more pumped than if you were opening 0-0 and not knowing what you have. Of course if you lose that puts a little more pressure on you to get back to .500.
Again, to me it's irrelevant. I kind of like getting the Colts with Andrew Luck coming back after a long layout. Beats Balt, Pitt or even Cleveland on the road IMO.
