    <em>Posted by ESPN.com's Paul Kuharsky</em> <p>Things change as the season progresses. And some games that look good from an AFC South perspective look even better from the vantage point of an opponent's division -- which means one of my seven blogging colleagues could wind up there instead of me.</p> <p>But zipping through the schedule on April 15, here are the games I'd tell my bosses I'd like to be at if I had to book all my travel for the 2009 season right now.</p> <p><strong>Week 1</strong></p> <p>Thursday, Sept. 10: Tennessee at Pittsburgh<br /> Sunday, Sept. 13: Jacksonville at Indianapolis</p> <p><strong>Week 2</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Sept. 20: Houston at Tennessee<br /> Monday, Sept. 21: Indianapolis at Miami</p> <p><strong>Week 3</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Sept. 27: Indianapolis at Arizona. (Rare is the occasion where I'd choose to bypass a game between two division teams, but Tennessee at Jacksonville has nowhere near the intrigue for me right now as Peyton Manning vs. Kurt Warner.)</p> <p><strong>Week 4</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Oct. 4: Tennessee at Jacksonville</p> <p><strong>Week 5</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Oct. 11: Indianapolis at Tennessee</p> <p><strong>Week 6</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Oct. 18: Tennessee at New England</p> <p><strong>Week 7</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Oct. 25: San Francisco at Houston (I'd be overdue to see Houston in this slate, but circumstances could prompt a flip to Indianapolis at St. Louis.)</p> <p><strong>Week 8</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Nov. 1: Jacksonville at Tennessee</p> <p><strong>Week 9</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Nov. 8: Houston at Indianapolis</p> <p><strong>Week 10</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Nov. 15: New England at Indianapolis</p> <p><strong>Week 11</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Nov. 22: Indianapolis at Baltimore<br /> Monday, Nov. 23: Tennessee at Houston</p> <p><strong>Week 12</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Nov. 29: Indianapolis at Houston</p> <p><strong>Week 13</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Dec. 6: Tennessee at Indianapolis</p> <p><strong>Week 14</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Dec. 13: Miami at Jacksonville</p> <p><strong>Week 15</strong></p> <p>Thursday, Dec. 17: Indianapolis at Jacksonville<br /> Sunday, Dec. 20: Houston at St. Louis</p> <p><strong>Week 16</strong></p> <p>Friday, Dec. 25: San Diego at Tennessee<br /> Sunday, Dec. 27: Houston at Miami</p> <p><strong>Week 17</strong></p> <p>Sunday, Jan. 3: Indianapolis at Buffalo or Tennessee at Seattle (Can't decide that one until we know the potential playoff implications.)</p>

    I know it's mostly because it's a division thing, but come on, he didn't pick any week where a non-division game was more interesting?

    well mister, I can tell you that Tennessee will only be playing there starters for 4 series and Indianapolis will be in a dog-fight for their life

    if you wanna see a close, hard nosed battle go to Buffalo
    if you want to see domination, fly to Seattle and watch the Seawhawks get their butt whipped

    He covers the AFC South - those are the games he goes to. It's that simple.

    Yeah, but these are the "games he'd like to be at", not the games he has to cover. It's just strange to me. He really thinks that Tennessee @ Jags is the best week 4 game? And that Miami @ Jags is the best week 14 game? Come on.

    These are the games he would like to be at to cover - perhaps he could word it better but all the games he picked include AFC South teams - so it's pretty clear that he is choosing which AFC South games are the most interesting to him. He doesn't get assigned to cover games outside of the division since he blogs for the AFC South.
